A fruit-full week.

This past week was a productive one.
I also realized I've been eating a ridiculous amount of fruit. Like I've been CRAVING fruit lately.
I have a smoothie for breakfast with muffins with fruit baked in.
I have fruit for snack after my classes.
I have fruit for my evening snack when I get back from the library.
I've just been eating fruit.

Everyone keeps asking me how I'm liking school, and they all seem to be confused when I say I'm loving it. Yes, it's a lot of work, but I actually enjoy reading the cases. Classes are engaging, terrifying at times, but always enjoyable and engaging.
I had a really good class on Friday. Property is my only class, and the professor is pretty intense. The book he co-wrote with another McGeorge professor is used at Harvard. He's awesome.
However, he has this fantastic talent of calling on people in their momentary lapse of attention. It's common knowledge that when he does this, you have been "Sprankled."
He called on me Friday, AND I WAS READY!
I gave him all the facts, he kept asking me questions, and I kept having the answer.
I even got a "Good job, Amanda."
WHAT?!
All of my classmates congratulated me after class. That's how awesome it is to do well in his class.
Nothing could ruin my Friday after that.

Saturday night, I got to have dinner with one of my good friends from U of A. It was awesome to catch up and have some down time.

Sacramento cooled down a lot this weekend. Instead of using my air conditioning, and the electricity I have to pay for to power it, I open windows. It's cooled down enough that I've finally been able to add all of my blankets to my bed, which is so much more comfortable.
I was also cold enough when I went to bed that I busted out this gem.

I also love Arizona football.

This is a hand-me-down from my baby brother, who received it as a hand-me-down from one of our close family friends. I'm not even sure how old it is, but it's one of my favorite things to sleep in!

After today, I've decided Sundays are my favorite day of the week.
I woke up this morning, put on my slippers (!) and went downstairs to start some homework. I then proceeded to bundle up on the couch and do my reading, with some naps in between. The smell of bread wafted through my windows.
After I finished all my homework, I went to Walmart to do my grocery shopping. I was really surprised at how excited I was to go to the grocery store. It's an outing, I get to drive a little ways, and frolic around the store.
Sundays are also my cooking day. After I got back from the store, I baked some apple banana muffins using this recipe. That'll be breakfast for the next week.
I also try to make a dinner that I can use throughout the week. Today it was Chinese sesame noodles using this recipe. I'm not as big of a fan of this one. It turned out REALLY peanut-y. It's good enough for this week, but I don't think I'll ever make it again.

Overall, I had a really solid week.

Loving the legal life.
