Weekend

I'm not sure if I've accomplished a lot this weekend. Yes, I've read the first six chapters of my marketing book, written a dozen pages of notes, answered 6 chapters worth of study guide, and yet I feel like the list of my to dos aren't becoming any slimmer. I'm under a lot of pressure, but still I can manage to sneak in and digress a little. (like what I'm doing now, or curling my hair..huh?) I'm liking my week's schedule a lot. It may seem tiring and full, but I think it's better than spreading out my classes over the whole week. The only catch is, I can have multiple exams, and papers due at the same day at consecutive times without enough leeway in betweens. I should actually have a switch button for my brain... so if it's time for accounting i can just hit the switch and i'm all set for some number-crunching. by the way, accounting isn't really a math thing, what are calculators for, right? it's more about the relationships of things.. like depreciating inventories, recording cost of land, building, capitalizing interests and all sorts of good stuff. Besides school and work, I'm also thinking about the upcoming MEET THE FIRMS, which is co-sponsored by the Accounting Association which I'm a part of. I dread networking.. but it's the absolute key to my chosen profession, so I guess I'll just suck it up. I still have got to get a new pant suit. Another thing is the mock interviews with McGladrey and Pullen..one of the top 6 auditing firms nationwide, I'm not up for it really, and my resume is still a chopsuey... pressure. But, if I let the opportunity pass for the fear of messing up, my interviewing skills aren't going anywhere and it's better to screw this one up and learn... than screw the real one up and blow my chances of getting hired. My mind is already on the 5th of November (date for mock interviews) and yet I still have exams ahead to battle with. This space is free. Ranting is free.
