User:CattleGirl

Welcome to my user page!

Please feel free to leave me a message on my talk page. I'll respond quickly! Thanks for visiting, I hope you like your stay >.< Have a look at the rest of this page to know more about me... And thanks to Riana for the design, and to Erich, and Editor at Large, who both helped create it in the first place. By the way, I'm quite not sure what difference it makes, but people seem to think it important... I view this page in Internet Explorer. :)
Cheers- CattleGirl

If you have any urgent questions/requests, see Help Desk, Administrators Noticeboard, Administrator Intervention Against Vandalism or Adopt-a-user talk page. People will be quite willing to help you on all of these pages.

• If you have any queries about anything, feel free to contact me on my talk page, or if you're blocked, or if the matter is of a private nature, I can also be contacted by email.
• I'm on Wikipedia pretty much every day for a few hours... Juggling band practise and boredom, hm.
• I revert a lot of vandalism, and I also like to vote on AFD and TFD's. If I've reverted an edit that you believe was valid, or warned you for one that was not yours, feel free contact me on my talk page.
• I don't use usernames outside the website I originally registered it on, with the exception of Wikimedia projects. I'm known as CattleGirl here, and on Wikiquote, where I would only be a casual editor- but accounts on other projects called CattleGirl aren't me, unless I note it here.

About me

R.I.P. Andy, Damo, Casey, and Pattie.

I'm a very passionate musician, so I tend to hang around those pages (and shows >.<) that I'm interested it. I'm straight edge, and listen to a lot of alternative and punk, alternative rock, metal... anything with a good set of guitars, really. Shows are fun. Hm. That's me.

I work with cattle a lot, usually red or black angus, as well as sheep. So I'll see all of you show-goers at the Melbourne Show...

I'm also a proud supporter of Greenpeace, a non-violent organisation that works for sustainability of the world's resources, and also saving lives of countless animals, most notably whales. I'm involved in many campaigns in reducing global warming, which raises money for funding green energy resources, as well as raising public awareness.

I also do not support nuclear waste and power, whaling, and bottom trawling, which is causing damage to the bottom of the earth's oceans.

Music

I'm one of two electric guitarists and backup singers in my band, and I care a lot about what I do. Since one of my passions is music, I wanted to say one thing on here. Don't cancel out an entire genre of music because of stereotypes. If you don't like one song, or a lifestyle, it doesn't mean it's all bad! Be open to all sorts of music, listen to people's suggestions for songs to listen to, and if you like it, you like it, and if you don't, you don't, whatever it is. Admittedly, most people, including me, enjoy one sort of music more than others- you'd be hard pressed to find a pop song I like, and I really don't like most "house" songs-but seriously, be open to everything. One more thing- if you don't like something, Wikipedia is not the place to tell everyone. There's forums for that.

Interesting websites

Please visit these sites- I find them interesting:
Greenpeace
Ocean Defenders

Randomness.

Due to me discovering the joys of userboxes, I found that they were cluttering this page... but please feel free to have a look through them here. The ones that belong to projects inside Wikipedia I put on THIS page, as well as a couple of interesting ones.

Picture of the day

The coconut (Cocos nucifera) is a member of the palm tree family, Arecaceae. Originally native to the Central Indo-Pacific, in the regions of Maritime Southeast Asia and Melanesia, coconuts are now found across the world due to human cultivation and dispersal. They are normally cultivated in hot and wet tropical climates. The term coconut also commonly refers to the seed and fruit of the coconut tree, which is botanically a drupe. The fruit has three layers including an edible white, fleshy endosperm and is filled with a liquid known as coconut water. The coconut thus played a critical role in the migration of Austronesian peoples across the Indian Ocean, as it provided a portable source of both food and water for long sea voyages. In modern times coconuts are used extensively in cooking and cuisine, using the raw flesh, the water or in alternative forms such as coconut milk and coconut butter. These coconuts, one whole and one halved, were grown in the Dominican Republic; this photograph was focus-stacked from 19 separate images.Photograph credit: Ivar Leidus
