Hello everybody!
I’m studying for the CPA exam (duh) and I have already passed FAR and AUD on my first try. I’m currently studying for REG and I feel like I’m taking forever to get done with all these exams. I took FAR on August 30, 2013, AUD on November 22, 2013, and I scheduled my REG exam on February 24, 2014. I know I have until May 2015 to pass the remaining 2 sections, but I feel like I’m breaking down to misery. I seems like it takes me at least 2 and 1/2 months to prepare for each section. I also have a husband and he’s very demanding. Plus I work at a small CPA firm. This is my schedule:
I wake up at 8am and go to work at 9am
I have a 15-30 minute lunch break in the break room of the office with my boss and co workers. My boss likes to have “family lunches”. I can’t study during this time as we don’t really have a lunch break after all…
I stop working at 6pm
I stay in the office, open my CPAExcel book and website and study until 11pm.
I come home to my husband at 11:30pm.
We go to sleep at 12:00am
And the cycle repeats.
After many arguments with my husband, I decided it wasn’t worth it going to the office to study on Sunday. So I decided to stop doing that and spend time at church and have brunch with friends instead.
I feel like I am stuck in a rut. I feel like I’m enslaved by this exam and it’s sucking the life out of me.
I need a hug… 🙁
Maybe I should take more of a risk and confront my fear of failing by taking the exam earlier, even if I don’t feel prepared?
I dream of the day when this nightmare will finally be over!
