Ahhh..do you know that feeling when you have a massive, long to-do list but you're checking off a ton of the items on it? It's such a good feeling, and I am eating that up right now!
I have to admit that I think I'm developing a new attitude to school this semester. I know most students constantly feel like they are behind on work, or that one week is overloaded while another is easy...and trust me, I am just as guilty of thinking these thoughts (reference some of my past posts if you need proof!) However, I am starting to realize that when you legitimately DO stay on top of your tasks, things aren't quite as bad as they seem!
I logged some serious hours studying for my cost accounting and supply chain management exams last week, but my hard work paid off- I'm pleased with my scores and now have the strategies and the motivation to continue to do well in those classes. I'm using this belief to prepare for a few other tests I have in the upcoming weeks, and am forcing myself to begin to study plenty early so I don't get behind on it.
I have officially my received my acceptance to my study abroad program for next semester!!!! I am powering through the paperwork (again, it seems like a lot, but I have to recognize I AM leaving the country for 4 months..it needs some heavy documentation!) and am blown away by the fact that at this exact moment 3 months from now I will be moving into my new residence in a foreign country. AHHHHHH!!!!!!!! There will definitely be more updates as I prepare for this journey and begin my life abroad in January!
All in all, I am pretty content with the way things are going :-) This upcoming weekend in Young Alumni Reunion, so I am excited to see some of my friends who graduated this past May and will be back on campus. Next Monday I am going on an accounting club trip into NYC to visit a few accounting firms which will also be a nice change of pace from the regular work week.
Yay for the fall (but boo to the cold weather)! And most importantly...KEEP IT UP PHILLIES! NCLS Here We Come! Is this a 2009 World Championship in the making?! WOOOHOOO!
