Ugh finals. probably the most dreading part of the semester, for any law student. I prepared my study schedule for the semester and once I realized, what I actually have to study “I FREAKED OUT”!!!! One of my classes, i need to read 1000 pages (2 different books, 500 pages each) of super dense business material. That’s my first final. May 3. As for the rest, I need to still work on my outlines for the others =( needless, to say the next 4 weeks will be anything but fun!
This morning I had breakfast as usual, Oatmeal! I honestly never get tired of this. And the more raisins the better =)
The latest craze on the blog word is the Green Monster (“GM”). I’ll admit I was very reluctant to try it. Maybe because of its Icky color? This didn’t stop me though from spreading the word to everyone else and convincing them to try it (hehe, part of my scheme to make sure it was good, before “I” tried it. They were my “test bunnies”) Well, I finally had all the ingredients at home and decided I should “man” up and try it.
What’s the verdict? ………. I wasn’t a fan! Maybe, I didn’t do it right?? I followed the Green Monster Movement, virgin recipe! I used:
- Ice;
- few handfuls of spinach;
- some regular (cow’s) milk;
- a banana; and
- then some Nesquik (I didn’t have any protein powder, I figured Nesquik chocolate milk powder, would give it that chocolatey kick). =)
The first sip was ok and then it just went down hill from there. I had my brother and sister try it too, they agreed with me, it just wasn’t that great. Ok, but not great. Which didn’t make sense, because all of my “test bunnies” loved it and have it all the time now. Maybe I should try adding a scoop of peanut butter?? I will it give it another try (maybe not for a few weeks though). Ok I’m off to the Library, I spent 11 hours there yesterday and mentally preparing myself for another long day. Wish me luck!!!!
Sometimes people are the strongest when they have no one to hold them up.
Hang in there cousin Im sure you will do great! Ive been on a super duper diet/fitness craze and I have been drinking a green monster every morning! Let me tell you it keeps you full and is great protein. I do the same as you minus the protein powder and I add blueberries. 🙂
