CPA exams

I just finished cleaning my room... well to the extent possible considering how much useless stuff I have.  It's what I do best when I'm trying to study but can't concentrate cuz I have too much energy from napping for 3 hours after trying to study for cpa exams after a long day of work.  Darn.  I missed the season finale of Top Design to clean my room!

Work/CPA
I thought it was just yesterday that I was celebrating New Years in Time Square... and now it's mid April??  I've only got about a week left to my internship at Grant Thornton... sad to leave but eager to move on and see what else is out there.  Going to Exxon on May 1st.  I really feel like someone took a universal remote like the one in the movie Click and fast forwarded my first four months of 2007, cuz I have no idea where it just went.  Now if only they could do that for the next six months.  Or to the point where I become a CPA.   Wishful thinking~  Something tells me I didn't learn the lesson I was supposed to from that movie   Well just for record, here's my plan:

Regulation:
Class: April 9 - May 4
Exam: ~May 19

Business Environment & Changes:
Class: June 4 - June 22
Exam: ~June 30

Financial Accounting & Reporting
Class: July 9 - August 10
Exam: ~Aug 25
 
Auditing & Attestation
Class: September 3 - Sept 21
Exam: ~Oct 6

Of course these are all subject to repeat.  Especially if I keep this procrastination up..

School
My graduation ceremony is on May 11th.  Tomorrow is my last day to decide whether or not to attend.  I'm so lazy!  I guess I don't have any regrets for not attending UT's ceremony so it shouldn't really matter this time either.  Someone tell me if I'm wrong.

Travel
NY was aweeeeeeeeeeeesome.  I have a few pics on facebook... too lazy to post here.  Except for my food poisoning from the delicious free cookies of the Doubletree Hotel in Time Square, the trip was great.  Bad deal on airfare but good deal on lodging  

Vegas?  California?  Europe??  I must go somewhere before I start working!!  I got one week available in August.......

Prayer Requests
For my coworker's mom who is awaiting tests on an esophageal tumor
For my dad's friend's terminally ill wife suffering from pancreatic cancer & that they will come to know God
For my friend's dad undergoing treatment for a brain tumor
For my grandmother's overall health

The IRS

If you wonder where all your tax money went for the 2005 taxable year... 

http://www.ocregister.com/ocregister/money/yourcounty/article_1212303.php

$200-$300 million??  You would think that someone should be on top of things

If that wasn't enough, read about this:

Something I learned from my 5 mins of studying for my tax research final... the IRS penalty for reporting the wrong number of exemptions or withholding status to an employer is $500.  I always wondered about that..
