May-mester

HOLY. COW.

Summer classes are a blessing and a curse.  It's so nice that I'm getting a whole semester, 15-week audit class finished in only four weeks.  But it's rough, because I'm getting a whole semester, 15-week audit class finished in only four weeks.

There is no room to breathe in this class.  Class is for two hours a day, five days a week, with one test every week.  The pace is one chapter a day.  Last week, we studied our two hours per day, ended up memorizing all of the wrong things, and basically failing the test.

And there's no time to recoup.  We've upped our studying plan, and have started studying for three to four hours each night.  It is exhausting!  During the regular semester, you generally have at least a day between each class session.  Not the case in May-mester.  You've got to be on top of it each and every day, or you're missing assignments, and falling behind so quickly that there is no hope of catching up.

But here's the good thing.  I'm taking the class with two of my favorite people--Brad and Shelby.  Probably some of the best friends I have made at Utah State are my awesome accounting friends.  Believe it, accounting majors are the best!

We study outside, because school or not...we like to celebrate summertime.

So even though this May-mester class is kind of the worst, it's totally worth it.  I get to spend countless hours with my friends, and I only have to learn about audit for four weeks!
