Monday is OVER! :D

Hey Hey! How was everyone's Monday? I was kind of down yesterday, but I feel much better today (Although I have a HUGE Food Science Test I will be CRAMMING for the second I press "Publish Post"!...let's not think about that!). Anyways, I hope Monday treated you well!

I ate way too many Honey Nut Cheerios last night! Whoops! ;)

Is there a Cerealics Annonymous (CA)? I could totally be the president! (any VP's out there?! haha)

This morning I woke up 30 minutes late but still made it to class on time (I needed that sleep anyways!). I ate a Banana and PBJ (Made with Whole Wheat Bread, Peanut Butter & Co Cinnamon Raisin PB and Cherry and Blueberry Preserves)throughout the morning.

For a mid afternoon snack, I had this lovely bar (YUM!) and an Apple!

I then went to Chem Lab and did the LOOOONGEST lab ever. Seriously our Prof almost had to kick us out because we took the whole 3 hours! BUUUT....It was my last Chem lab! Yay!

My mom always says..."Emily you are going to be a chemist......why are you glad Chem Lab is over?"...
My Response.."Well, If we were working with FOOD, things would be different..I am going to be a Food Scientist.....totally different! ;)"

After Chem Lab I got a much needed Kevaccino from Keva Juice! Sure I just had one yesterday, but KEVACCINOs are my Comfort Food. Seriously, after one sip, all of my worries go away! It's magic food! You will be seeing alot more of them during these next two weeks!

Some of you have been asking what Kevaccino is and I always forget I have new readers each day...Let me explain for those who are newbies.....Keva Juice makes Smoothies. But, Not your average smoothies. They use Fat Free Frozen Yogurt, Fat Free Milk, Real Fruit and (depending on the smoothie you choose) Sherbet or Fruit Juice (and also add in some vitamins, protein powder or one of their other options for FREE). I ALWAYS get a Kevaccino which consists of Fat Free Frozen Yogurt, Skim Milk, ice and coffee flavoring. It is like a low fat Milkshake and when I go home for Summer I may just have withdrawls without it! haha

Dinner was some extra yummy tacos. I got black beans, lettuce, a bit of shredded cheese and tomatoes. I asked for extra lettuce and she put a big handfull on the side, so I got to have a mini taco salad after I was done with my overflowing tacos! DELISH and oh so filling!
I don't think I will need a snack tonight, which is a miracle!


Sorry for the lack of pictures!! I need to get studying!!

My lab group tried to meet today but our TA (Teacher's Assistant) was not there when we thought shee would be SO we are meeting tommorrow at 2:15 FO' SHO! Man this has turned into a big ole' mess!

I also plan on going for a nice Tuesday Morning Run tommorrow at 7AM! :D

PEACE OUT!

Edited: I had half of my brownie from my chem teacher (pic to come tommorrow) and a handfull of ....CEREAL (The Mini Chocolate Mini Wheats pictured a few posts back! lol!.....)

One Day at a Time!

I have a major Food Science test on Tuesday that needs to be studied for (big time), I need to do a make-up presentation before the deadline on Wednesday and our group cannot make a DECISION!, I am feeling slightly achey/not my best (:/), and I am overly stressed....
How's your day been? lol

Ok this will be a quick post of my eats today! Ready!?
Before Church.......
After Church....It was not as good as last time so I only ate 2/3 the omelet (egg whites, advocado, turkey, tomato and jack cheese) and about 1/2 the chips!
Brownie in a Box
About 1/4 cup Bear Naked Trail Mix Granola (YUM!)
I was SOO tired that I took a nap from 1-2 and when I woke up I felt even MORE tired!
THAT is why I don't take naps! That always happens!
Anyways, I had alot of studying to do and NO energy, so I bought a little bowl of Froot Loops and a Diet Coke......meh!

Apple and FDSC notes!! aahhhh!
Then Alexa and I decided (who are we kidding) and went to Keva Juice! YUM The Kevaccino ALWAYS brightens my day! I don't know if I have mentioned this, but you get a free "Energizer" and I usually get Vita-Gizer or Stress Relief! They are simply a mix of vitamins and minerals!
PB& Co Cinnamon Raisin with Blueberry and Cherry Preserves on WW bread! Perfecto!
Some Cereal May follow! It's my comfort food when I don't feel good (or when I do! lol)

News on the Horizon:
1. I was graciously offered a chance to try out MyWayCereal.com (Thanks Sami!). However, my dorm address was not working, so they had to send it to my house. SOOO that is a review to look forward to! I created a tasty and healthy mix that you won't want to miss out on! It was very fun and may become a regular thing!
*
2. My little Gem I got at WalMart yesterday......OIKOS! I found them! Since we made a spontaneous trip to Keva today, I want to save my OIKOS for later in the week, but look forward to that review! (Thanks to the people over at Stonyfield Farm !!)

Just a note for the next 2 weeks:
I am not trying to cover anything up or make anything look better than it is. For Example, Froot Loops are not something I would tout as healthy, but sometimes stressful times call for desperate measures (like my twist on that old saying!? haha). I am going to keep the blog in mind and while I am STRESSING OUT these next two weeks of school/finals, I am going to try to focus on healthy eating and working out (esp. Tues and Thursday Morning when I dont start school at 8AM! Love those Morning Workouts!). Not only will this make me feel better inside, but hopefully it will keep me from getting sick (which happens to many people when they let stress get the best of them!). Give me some encouragement and be sure to keep me in check guys! ;) Good news is that when I get home, I will have a brand new oven, big fridge, kitchen and will get some good cookin' meals going! :D

(I found a link to Anni Phyo's RAW DONUT HOLES I have been seeing on sooo many blogs! Check out this cool blog and see the video! Now I can make them when I get home!)

See you all tommorrow! Let's just take this one day at a time! <3

The calm before the storm!

One Guys! FINALLY~ Just as good as always! Then we went to do a little grocery shopping and picked up a box of these........
And quickly dove in when we got home and started the movie "The Holiday"!
It reminds me of CAKE AND ICE CREAM! :D
Then I munched on cereal during the movie! This stuff is like a brownie in a box. TRY IT NOW! (It's so good....it has a natural glow!)

YUM x2 (or 3?!?)

Ok enough sweets for tonight! Today was so much fun and just what I needed. All we did was relax, watch movies and veg! Perfect because these next 2 (and final 2) weeks of school are going to be HECTIC TO THE MAX!



P.S. I FOUND A LITTLE GEM at WalMart today and jumped up and down in excitement! It shall be revealed tommorrow! Stay tuned! :D

I am going to turn into.....

An Almond M&M!





I also ate the Juciest Orange Ever! ....EVER! It looks so innocent....

P.s. We are Watching ROLE MODELS and I am cracking up! I have seen it before, but still! haha
