Haven't been around much

July 13th, 2008 at 04:07 pm

I have not been blogging lately, so busy with this accounting class. My first test I failed (60 points out of 100) so I have been really studying. Financial accounting I was told was much harder than managerial but I beg to differ. Anyhow, I decided to return my Mac computer, I really don't like it and it is going to cost me way too much to add windows. Too bad I can't trust my sister to pay me monthly. Maybe when this laptop crash I will be able to buy another Mac and upgrade with windows as well. I paid $1000 on the cc to get it down and once I return the Mac it will be at a zero balance.

Ugh. I hated BOTH those classes. Though I think managerial was pretty much over my head. If it is what I am thinking of. All that inventory costing and such. Blech. Financial I think I at least understood on some level. I just remember memerizing a lot in Managerial. But I rued both of those classes.

I don't use anything I learned in those classes for the most part in the real world. So hopefully that is helpful.
