a slight reprieve
So the third part of my cpa test was this past Thursday - leaving me with a slight reprieve from studying this weekend - only to dive right back into it come next week (after Monday, of course). I met up with some friends at Tahoe Joe's on Thursday night for drinks & dinner, the furthered the celebrating at a sabbatical party for a few of our friends last night. It feels good to be done with this test. The test was incredibly difficult, and took me the full 4 hours to complete (I finished with a minute and 27 seconds left on the clock). I'm not extremely confident about the results - it wasn't a cake walk by any means, and I'm sad to say that this one could probably go either way. I find out the results in six weeks. Until then, I assume I passed and move on to the next section - Regulation (taxes and whatnot). Lately the overkill of "accounting" has had me in a bit of a rut. I've been questioning my chosen career path, wondering if this stuff is really for me. In reality, I enjoy what I do and the theory behind it all, but too many journal entries on the brain can really zap that love for numbers out of a person, ya know? Ben & I had talked about going out of town this weekend and getting away from it all... as the weekend approached, and no plans were made, we realized that staying at home and just being lazy sounded like a far better option. We haven't had many relaxing weekends at home lately. They've either been on the go or filled with studying. I have so many things I want to do when this last test is over - I still need to make a wedding photo album, edit our wedding video, upload my archive of pics onto my new flickr account, finish working at the condo and get it into a salable condition, the list continues. I can't wait to be done... it's so close I can taste it!
