How to draw new shape with an automatic fill of the previous shape in Illustrator?

I previously had this setting in my other computer but now it's gone in my new laptop and its driving me nuts trying to find it!

I was able to uncheck something which allowed me to draw new shapes using the pen tool and it automatically fills in the colour with the colour/properties of a previous shape I drew. So if I drew a pink circle and that circle is highlighted, I would go ahead and draw another one, that next one would be pink as well. Now with this default setting, I can only draw a circle with no fill no stroke, fill it in with a colour or stroke and while it's highlighted, I would drawn another circle but the properties would be the default setting, just the path with no colour no stroke. 

Helppppppp!!!~~~
