So it's story time. My husband is taking the kids to his best friend's lake house this weekend. It's supposed to be super hot up there. He just got a pontoon boat.....
I'd have the 2 hour drive there to study and the 2 hour ride home. I'd have ALL day. It would be peaceful. I COULD get some quality studying done.
So I told my husband that I was considering coming with. I would just need blocks off to study here and there. My test is MONDAY. He was getting excited - I could tell. So I went upstairs and started to pack my stuff.
He sends me a text message (yes, we're dorks and text each other in the house) and it says, "Hey - I heard FAR was talking some mad sh1t about you..." And I just laughed. When I was in grad school, he always used to send me these random texts about tests that I "owned" or didn't own. I knew the choice I had to make.
I chose to stay home. Not because I don't think I'm ready. But because I am ready to put this thing down once and for all. I had my time to party after college. Do you think I studied May of '04? Obviously not. I chose to party then. And then I didn't pass in '08 because of some other excuse.
What sacrifices are you willing to make to put this thing behind you? I am willing to give up any 8 hour day on a pontoon boat to be a CPA. That's how I know I'll be one!
