Becoming a slob the week before the exam

    I’m usually a neat freak but I become an absolute mess the week before the exam. The sink piles up, clothes goes unwashed, etc. I currently live by myself and my place is turned upside down. The time it takes to clean up after myself is time I could spend doing MCQs or flashcards. My girlfriend is nice enough to clean up a little when she comes over. Complaining while doing it but I’m still really thankful lol I

    Just wondering if this happens to anyone else when test day is approaching

    Yep!

    My “slobbiness” began about 2 weeks ago (test is this Monday). Hardwoods need to be swept? Laundry in dryer? TV a little dusty? Vacuuming needs to be done?

    AINT NOBODY GOT TIME FOR THAT! 🙂

    1 week?! I was only able to half decorate for Christmas and those decorations are still up. My home fell apart the week I started restudying for AUD and probably won't be back to good until I'm MCLKT, CPA 🙂

    I don't shave the last few days before an exam; that way, I look as unkempt as I feel.

    REG in four days. Electric razor is on vacation. 🙂

    It is really comforting to know that it was not just me who let everything go. I took Audit on Jan 22 and I've been doing a lot of cleaning and de-cluttering as I await my results. I've been doing an outline of the BEC Info Tech chapter in case I have to take Audit over (PLEASE- NO!!!). It is nice to have my place looking better again. I am not letting it get so bad again- it is too depressing and you can't find anything!

    I want Sweet Brown to effectively teach me estate taxation and individual/corporate AMT. That would be awesome! lol

    I finally took the Christmas decorations down after W2's were out the door, but nothing is put back up. I have a bunch of empty tables and the only thing on the mantle is the clock! And for the record, I wouldn't let anyone in my house right now to save my life! I'd meet the paramedics on the front porch!

    @ everybody who has posted here. Hi, My name is candothis and I am a TOTAL slob not just a week before the exam but pretty much eight weeks leading up to the exam. I decorated for Christmas on Christmas Eve and just took my tree down last week. Like Kricket my decorations are placed in boxes but not put away.

    I bought blinds for my windows in 2011 and just got them put up last weekend. Clean laundry will sit in the laundry basket for days.

    When in study mode, I usually sweep my floors when I get a phone call. I vacuumed last week and actually clogged the vacuum cleaner.

    Just want this to be over. Today.
