A Few of My Favorite Things...

It's interesting how being in a good mood can make being in the library at 9am on Friday, your day off from school, bearable...if not even a little fun. Despite the slow and stressful start to the week, things have gotten much better. A lot of this can be attributed to some of my favorite things:

• UCLA Basketball: Not only did we win a big game against Washington State last night, not only did we win the Pac-10 division last night, we did it with class. In an article my friends have posted, UCLA has championship material, a columnist points notes how mature our team is and how humble they are. UCLA actually waited until they got off WSU's court and up the ramp to celebrate their Pac-10 victory. So much more class than USC, who I still remember threw oranges onto our field at the Rosebowl when they beat us and got a bid to the Orange Bowl.
  
• Post-it Notes: Invented by a Minnesotan, colored post-it notes makes organizing your stacks of materials so much more fun. I'm really glad I found a profession that caters to my obsessive compulsive tendancies.
• Finetune.com: My roommate showed me this really cool website. You're better off just exploring the website instead of having me try to explain it fully but in a nutshell: you can listen to different commercialess radio stations that relate to artists you like and make your own playlists. Fun times.
  
• Natural Light & Lunch: After rain last night and this morning, it goregous this afternoon and amazingly 60 degrees. Even if I only got to enjoy it when I was having lunch with my law school friends, it was great. And having the opportunity to eat lunch with my friends outside the law school dining room made it even better.
  
• The Boyfriend & Wings: Knowing that I was staying in to work on my argument and unable to go to the bar to watch UCLA's big game, Alex surprised me by ordering wings and having them delivered to my apartment. Words cannot even describe how giddy I was.
