    I promised myself a Bespoke business suit. In the $2000-$3000 range. Yeah, I am a clothes horse. I have even picked out the fabric.

    I am curious as to what else my fellow candidates have promised themselves.

    REG - 76

    DONE! DONE!! DONE!!!

    I'm taking my daughter to the Wizarding World of Harry Potter next month. But I was already doing that whether or not I passed. Now it's just a bonus that I won't have anything hanging over my head when I get back.

    That's as far as I've gotten in this thought process of rewarding myself.

    I did get up and go to work the next day. That was pretty special.

    My husband took me to a french restaurant last week for my (hopefully) last exam and my first day of work at my new firm. This weekend we're going car shopping. I don't have my BEC result but I'm hoping I'm actually done, and I'll probably go get a massage to celebrate!

    I should have taken and have got my scores back for my final part a week before going to Disney World with my girlfriend. She's also taking her final part around the same time. So either we shall both be celebrating, or one/both of us shall be crying over Mickey's shoulder. I've also been eying a Nomos Tangente for awhile now.
