Hey lovelies!! I hope you are doing well!! Today was amazing day actually – I don’t know what it was about it really – but …it was fabulous. First and foremost – it didn’t rain!! haha It was grey all day long but it did not rain. It felt very odd to not have a death grip on my umbrella or be anticipating a gust of wind that could turn my umbrella inside out! haha

Also! Look! Look who found his way outside my window…

Good to see you, too, Mr. Robin!

If that doesn’t say “Spring has sprung!” – I don’t know what does!

This morning started with a lovely leftover latte - yum, yum. It fueled me up for a morning of e-mail design and French.

I had packed a snack for the day – Trader Joe’s Maple and Brown Sugar Shredded Wheat. Deelicious.

I munched through the afternoon – but when dinnertime came around I was craving naan again, but knew I wanted to switch it up. I toasted the naan in the oven, and paired it with some “refried” beans…or pinto bean hummus that I mixed up in the food processor. Paired with some mixed veggies, it was a really great meal.

I was still hungry though – so some Kashi Honey Sunshine came to the rescue.

Oh! and I tweeted about this today – but freals I love Jen Aniston. I have yet to see the Bounty Hunter, but I want to (and I don’t really care what reviews say – I still wanna see it haha)…she has a new interview in Harper’s Bazaar UK and I just love her! (source Popsugar)

I love how frank she is in the interview and I just wanna hang out with her. haha Plus, of course she looks fab!

  • She talks about “spring cleaning” in your life. Have you done any spring cleaning in your life at all?

I’ve definitely done my fair share of spring cleaning – friend shedding, pound shedding, insecurity shedding….in my opinion, you have to be happy with yourself first before anything else will fall into place! :)

Heyy everyone! Finals week has officially begun! haha I had my first (of three) finals this morning.

I was prepared.

Yeah, that was my French study guide that I put together. haha

This morning…whew…I was a lucky duck. I set my alarm for 5:45am..figuring I could get up, wake up, study a little before heading out the door…welllll, that didn’t exactly work out… Let me say, that someone up there was definitely looking out for me this morning.

So I wake up roll over and the clock says 7:16!!!!!! My final was at 8, and usually I am out the door by that time!!! I found my phone (which is what I program to be my alarm) on my couch across the room…which either means I threw it?? or I actually got up at 5:45 (no recollection) walked around…put my phone down and got back into bed. Either way…I was really lucky. I am betting it was the latter of those two options though…

Anyway, I was up…face washed, teeth brushed (by no means “done up”), in jeans, a sports bra and a sweatshirt…and I literally RAN to class. I made freaking amazing time. It is about a mile to class….and I did it in 20 minutes (with a coffee stop). A coffee stop? yes…haha I was booking it that I literally reached Starbucks at the same time as I normally reach it…I must have looked like a mess. haha

I got to class with about 15 minutes to spare, and was able to calm myself down and go over my notes a bit. Overall…it worked out, and I think I did well on the final.

I made my usual yogurt mess when I got home: NF plain greek yogurt, blueberry flax (new obsession), sunflower seeds and honey.

I got a little bit of a nap in, and munched on some Dark Chocolate Dreams throughout the day…and I studied! I swear! haha

For lunch, I munched on some popcorn with hummus. :)

At that point I gave myself a little break from studying (and a cramping hand) — and chatted with friends and caught up on some television. Ohh the simple things. haha

After that I decided it was time for some dinner. I had some Green Goodness, and made a stir fry with a summer squash, mixed veggie medley (broccoli, cauliflower, green beans, edamame, carrots), roasted corn, rice, red chili sauce (spppppicyyy) and soy sauce.

It’s really yummy … I’m still currently noshing on it. :)

My night is filled with studying, studying, studying and hopefully taking my PR exam online the moment it is available (midnight) just to get it out of the way…and then it’s on the study for my Ethics midterm tomorrow night. Joyyyyy. :)

However, the next time I talk to you guys I’ll be ON BREAK. So that it a wonderful thing to look forward to. I have a lot that I want to do with the blog while I’ve got the time to do so! :)

I hope you are all doing wonderfully!!!

Peace, Love & Munchies.
