I’m planning on getting my life back to normal. I am still feeling some sort of weird guilt because I’m not studying. Hoping for a pass come next Tuesday so I can forget this nightmare called cpa exam review.

How is everyone else keeping busy? Studying for your next exam? Training for an ultra-marathon??? Drinking craft beer?!??!

Congrats Peetree. I wish I were in your spot. I am waiting on my REG scores and the wait is torture. For me I am taking it easy until further notice, this Monday. Craft beer sounds good. I am actually hooked on Stella. Any recommendations on a good craft beer? By the way I am out in Katy, TX.

I should be studying for BEC but I can't bring myself to study for it until I find out what I got in AUD. Would you guys recommend I move on to BEC if I didn't pass or should I review AUD furiously and take it early October since it's still kinda fresh in my head?

[jrosen92770]

Soundwave it sounds like you would be to unfocused, so perhaps take this time to catch up on things.

I tried an IPA (Rodeo Clown) and was not a fan. Now the Delerium sounds good. As soon as I get through FAR, I am going to start home brewing.

@Peetree did you mention drinking craft beer??? I just happen to be enjoying a Pumpkin IPA from North Peak Brewing while watching the Tigers game! If I don't pass FAR next week I will lose my damn mind!!! 😉

@jrosen if you like Stella then try hoegaarden! It's smooth like stella but has more flavor and you should be able to find it easily at stores that sell more than bud and MGD! If you like that then move into wheat beers next. It's important to look for similar flavor profiles in new beers once hit on something you enjoy! If you don't enjoy the bitterness of the hops in the IPA that's ok, but don't give up on IPAs! I'm not a huge hop head but there are tons of IPAs out there that aren't bitter. Beer advocate is a great resource when you are looking to try new beers!

REG: 75 DONE 🙂

Taking this whole week off and starting to study for Reg on Monday. I recently started blogging as a way to cope with the end of a relationship and it's actually pretty fun. Might be documenting this crazy process on there too!

jrosen92770 – Check out Spec's for craft beers and gourmet foods. That place is awesome and the employees are super helpful. We have them in Austin as well.

[jrosen92770]
