Ok so the local market here in downtown Phoenix just started selling these things called 'yulu beans.' I've found out very little about them on the internet except that they are seeds of the wild papaya (or 'bonete' in Spanish.) They're surprisingly tasty and I've found that just a small handful satisfies my hunger. They're high in protein and taste phenomenal in salads, or mixed in with some hummus on top of freshly baked pita bread! I bought a 6 ounce bag for $5 and I've still got three-quarters of it left after having it for over a week. There's a rather frightening picture of a rattlesnake on the side of the bag, but I didn't let that faze me.
In other news...can I just say I can't wait until this week is over?
I got little to no sleep over the weekend - which is fine - I had an amazing weekend  - but now I am much more inclined to sleep all day than do my work.
Midterms..how you vex me. Working 32 hours a week and going to school full-time was manageable for a little while..now I'm thinking I might just have been a little over-ambitious. I have to read an entire book and write a book report on a book I don't even own but fortunately found an electronic copy of on the internet for my news class, finish about two weeks of French homework, take an online statistics quiz and exam, write a 4-5 page argumentative paper for English and...I think that's it. I have to confess I'm a bit peeved at myself for not getting the book sooner. I've had to put down "Interview with a Vampire" for "The Corpse Had a Familiar Face."
I'm going to look at an apartment on Friday in Tempe. It's really close to the main campus and is only $650 a month! I must confess I do a little dance in my heart whenever I think about getting out of these dreadful dorms.
Spring break is almost here..California roadtrip is almost here.... 
Well..should probably get to work! Wish me luck...
 
Now to try and find those in Switzerland! It takes searching to find other things than cheese and bread!
