What is everyone doing this beautiful holiday weekend? September 15 corporate deadline sabotaged my study plans this week, and now I have to study FAR. ALL WEEKEND! YUCK! I will take some time on Monday for my husband’s annual BBQ, but am locking myself in the basement to study the rest of the three days.

So, what are your plans?

Study like my life depends on it… if I'm lucky next weekend, maybe I can get a few rounds of trap/skeet in before going back to studying. Love trap/going to the range as a distraction from this awful exam.

Three solid days of studying FAR then back to work to try to get clients to get their information in to meet the 9/15 deadline….Woo hoo what a good time!

I'm hitting Starbucks in the morning and enjoying some pool/beach time in the afternoon. Back to studying at night. I did that today and was able to log in around 4 hours but I started my day late. My goal is 6 hours tomorrow and 3 on Monday.

BEC: 73, 81
AUD: 85
FAR: 71, 77
REG: 74, 75...finally DONE! 😀

*This is my 2nd attempt at the CPA exam. For all of you who have failed this exam many times, given up on it, or taken a break like me, remember that it is still possible to finish what you started...failure is the opportunity to begin again more intelligently 🙂

Took FAR last Tuesday and took a few days off. I didn't know what to do with the days off, as I felt guilty for not studying. I'm starting AUD today.

Using Ninja MCQ, NINJA Notes, Audio, Flashcards and BLITZ, and 2014 Wiley Text

FAR - (61,63)
AUD - (68)

I took FAR on Saturday. Yesterday I did nothing. Absolutely nothing. It felt SO good.

Today I'm doing light study for AUD. I'll hit it much harder tomorrow and the rest of the week but after FAR, I need a couple of days just to decompress a bit.

My plans of getting 6 hours in yesterday did NOT work. I got probably 2 hours in, but at least it's something. At Starbucks again and getting together later with friends for pool/beach time so will have to make some progress now and then force myself to study at home tonight.

BEC: 73, 81
AUD: 85
FAR: 71, 77
REG: 74, 75...finally DONE! 😀
