Welcome to my profile page! I find Epinions to be a great place to share and learn a lot of useful information. I thoroughly enjoy this site and plan to stick around. Life is busy, but I try to devote time to read/rate/comment on reviews and add some of my own.
Here's a little about me. I am a 20-something wife of a husband I truly cherish. We have no children. We have one cat (Luna), and a ropefish (Ropey).
I enjoy...playing MMORPGs, scrapbooking, writing reviews, spending time with family, collecting penguin paraphernalia, researching health and nutritional information, becoming engrossed in TV series, eating chocolate, discovering odd music, and drinking tea.
I am thrilled to wear the Advisor hat in the Pets category. I feel honored. I have a background in the animal world, having worked as a vet tech for several years and earning my certification as both a Veterinary Assistant, and Veterinary Nutritional Counselor. While certifications don't necessarily equate to knowledge, I feel my experiences in the field taught me so much, and I enjoy sharing what I know with others, in hopes they'll consider my advice when making decisions regarding their pets.
I got my feet wet briefly in human health-care, though I'm not sure that's for me. I've, yet again, learned a lot, and and glad for that, but am unsure what career field is truly for me.
Thanks for reading up on me! I frequently check out others' profiles as well, and try to keep up to date if they make changes. Below is a little about how I rate and write here on the site.
Rating
When I rate reviews, I do not rubber stamp. It may look bad about me, or make me seem like a snob, to see me rate lower than everyone else, and that person may dislike me for it. However, we all must rate it how we truly feel, how helpful it was to us personally, rather than just going with the flow. If you have a question about how I rated, please e-mail me (and please link the review) at lady_luna02@yahoo.com. I'm more than happy to give you an answer.
Writing
When I write reviews, I don't expect everyone to like my style, content, etc. Some people feel listing ingredients is a "crutch." That's fine for them to feel that way, but if I list the ingredients, I usually comment on them in some way, shape, or form, and don't use them as a filler. Same goes with adding in nutritional information. I don't rate anyone lower for not including ingredients, or rate them higher for including them either. It's just a personal preference I have for including this in most of my reviews.
* I'd like to thank those who have (and may in the future) put me on their Web of Trust. It is truly appreciated. *
I welcome feedback, and encourage people to comment on my reviews, even if negative.
