I am here to answer the first question every carnivore asks when talking to a vegetarian. “No meat? Well then what do you eat?”
As a vegetarian, it is my responsibility to take proper care of my body and still provide it with all the nutrients needed. It took me years before I learned how to properly supplement my diet. Now that I have learned to do so, the answer to that question comes quite easy. I eat everything!

Flagler Health Services had their hands full last year dealing with case after case of swine flu but nurse Judy Angyalfly said things have settled down this year.
“I came on board in this position last year in September right in the middle of all the craziness so Holly was here all by herself prior to that, and she was really having a time trying to keep up with it,” Angyalfly said about her co-worker Holly Hagler, another registered nurse at Flagler College.

Flagler alum Paige Marie Garrity, 19, is living her childhood dream as a rising pop star, preparing to release her debut mix-tape next January.
“I knew from a very young age that performing was what I wanted to do…When my friends would come over, we would get all dressed up and put on shows at my parents’ dinner parties,” Garrity said. “I wasn’t a shy kid, I loved being the center of attention when it came to the ‘spotlight.’ I would choreograph routines to Britney Spears, N’Sync and Christina Aguilera and beg for my friends to perform them with me, even when they didn’t want to.”

I am graduating this December. After almost 20 years of homework and tests, it will all be over. Just like that. Just over four years in college and I will be walking away from campus for the last time on December 11, 2010. Honestly, I never imagined this day would actually come. Especially when you take into consideration what a terrible student I was as a college freshman. I mean, I was a good student. I didn’t talk in class and I paid attention, or at least pretended too. But, I never studied. I would come home and take a nap or waste time watching TV or playing Peggle.

Remember when the words “look both ways before crossing the street” was absolutely drilled into your head at around age 4? There would never be a car coming whenever you looked. But then there will be that one time when you saw the ice cream man across the street and you went into hyper mode and as you were about to run across the street a Ford F350 almost ends your still young life.
