I was giving serious consideration to becoming a CPA. I mean, I still am. But, I found out that they really need the concentration to be Accounting, not Finance. I’d have to take an another 8 (24 credit hours) of varied accounting courses. The only other option that anyone has ever mentioned is writing / … Read more
I have had this recurring thought lately. I remember when my friend Kevin would tell me, “She would eat you alive,” when I brought up someone in school that I liked. I took it as a warning that I would fall for someone and they would just take advantage of me, and leave me after … Read more

Alright, so maybe I do want to keep these online. I’m moving away from Apple’s Journal App, and towards keeping sthings online with a local copy of things until I publish them. It’ll be interesting to see how this all works out.
