More CPA stuff. ::shrugs::

So, more CPA stuff. Sorry. I'm warning you in advance in case you want to skip this haha.

I think the worst part about studying is the fact that EVERYTHING is critical to memorize. Like, I basically have an entire textbook worth of accounting knowledge to memorize. And that's for ONE section of this test. So it pretty much re-teaches you accounting... and like, ususally when you read a textbook, you can pick out what's most important. Nope, not anymore. Every single word they say needs to be memorized. They've like, basically condensed all of accounting into an outline and so it's ALL the most important points. It's so overwhelming. Because I find myself flying through a page like 'yep, I know that, yep, I know that.' And then I remember "I mean, yeah, when I read it, I know it's true, but I doubt I've memorized those 6 types of events that can result in changes of accounting estimates I just skimmed over.

I don't know if that made sense or not. It makes sense in my head.

Anyway, maybe I should just re-title this blog "Britney's CPA Exam Journey." I'm sorry that this is going to become even more boring to read for the next 6 months, but literally, this will be my entire life. 25-30 hours a week of studying (on TOP of my schoolwork) will do that to you.

Maybe some really badass events will happen in the next 6 months that will keep you all reading. Ha :)

In other news, I'm still only on season 4 of The West Wing. I seriously watch SO many episodes (like, I probably average 2 a day) and I'm only halfway through the series! It blows my mind.

A guy in one of my groups for school didn't come to our meeting today because he was 'sick.' I was just on Facebook (clearly studying...) and another guy (we'll call him 'Miami Boy') in our program posted pictures from this weekend... apparently Miami Boy invited a few MAcc guys to Miami for the weekend... the guy from my group was in some pictures from Miami. Sooo clearly 'sick' means 'horribly hungover.' Ummm THREE of the 5 people that showed up to the meeting were hungover (including me) and we all managed to drag ourselves there and get a lot of work done. So... the moral of the story is SUCK IT UP, LAME-O.

Big Bang (the piano bar) was AMAZING last night, even though we had to wait for 30 minutes out in the cold to get in. And even though I lost $20 in cash, after spending $28 on my credit card on mine and Katie's drinks. Add in parking and the cover, and I had about a $55 night on the town. Sad face.

I'm basically procrastinating, in case you couldn't tell. Sigh. Time to get back to "Accounting Changes and Prior Period Adjustments." Omg.
