It's about that time

Well, dear readers, it's about that time. You know what I'm talking about, right? That time when yours truly will be fighting to keep her head from exploding. Yes, you guessed it - school starts this week for me.

I have such a kind and understanding boss who generously pays for my education, since I am trying to get the accounting and business credits I need to sit (eventually) for the CPA exam. Now, he's not a moron; he waits until I pass the class with a "B" or better before reimbursing me for tuition and books. My tuition is quite inexpensive, all things considered. However, my boss also says things to me like, "I don't want to hear you whining about how you have class." Why would someone so kind say such a thing to me? Oh, yeah, that's right - because we also happen to be in the middle of our June 30th year-end busy season.

For the next 3 months, my life is going to consist of working probably close to 50 hours a week while simultaneously taking 6 credits worth of classes. On Tuesdays and Thursdays, I will be IN class from 6:30 until 10pm. I will also become uber organized as I try to compartmentalize my life. I must leave work at work, focus on school while I am there, and set aside specific time for homework.

Shaine and I have decided to make Wednesday nights "homework night," and hopefully, we will actually get some homework done. Undoubtedly there will be wedding talk (both hers and Becky's) and, possibly some SYTYCD (since that starts this week as well), but that's it. Homework MUST GET DONE!

I hope to not neglect my blog during this time, and who knows...perhaps some of the interactions with other students will provide fodder for some fabulously amusing posts!

  1. I'm in. For all of it. And I promise to (try and) keep the wedding talk to a minimum.
