How to be vegan
It made me
happy! 
"I have opted to be vegan-leaning."
How I did it: I live with a community of artists that are mostly vegetarian, and I have been vegetarian for the past 4 years.
I decided to eat only vegan items when I cook, bring dishes to potlucks, and when ordering out at a restaurant. However, if I get invited to someone's house for dinner, I will not turn down items that may contain eggs, milk, or cheese. So, I'm not strict vegan, but I'm happier and healthier with the choices I've made.
Lessons & tips: When you're on a budget - like me - with college expenses in this economy, it really helped to make gradual changes instead of emptying your fridge and buying all new everything.
When I ran out of something, I simply replaced it with it's vegan alternative. (Vegenaise for Mayo, Silk for Milk, etc.)
