This is because Windows seems to have become your default OS since the installation. Turn off and on your Macbook or restart while holding the left alt-key. This will give you a bootpartition(or cd/dvd for that matter) choice. Select your OSX partition and you should be fine.

The Boot Camp Assistant can burn Boot Camp software (drivers) to a DVD or copy it to a USB storage device, such as a flash drive or hard drive. These are the only media you can use to install Boot Camp software.
