I started earlier I guess when I thought about all the people and things that are motivating me to do the CFE well. I went out drove to one breakdancing practice (closed for the summer) then i went to another (closed for a reason I don't know). Then I had a chance to check out another practice (I always used to practice on fridays so I wanted to squeeze in a 1 hour practice with some friends or friendly peeps), but nothing! And that's fine :) I'm going to put the same amazing effort into my studies. Let's do this. I'm a winner baby. Yeeeeeeah.
Okay, so I'm an hour and 30 minutes into my 6 hour study session. And I'm quite hungry after a long read of some CPA documents... Ummm. How do I conquer my hunger? Let's see... Will CPA still allow people to bring in food (in original wrapping that isn't noisy or distracting or has a strong scent). How bad would it be if I brought curry noodles bowl and a hot water in a thermos. LOL!!! J/K do NOT do that lol... Honestly, do bring bottled water and do bring maybe a granola bar of some sort. I'd highly suggest one with coconut oil. Anyways. Let's take a short break and then get back to studying. One episode of anime for me! Yahoo! I'm gonna watch Rocko's Modern Life... That show is hilarious and makes me happy. :)

Off note: I learned some (maybe obvious to others) things today. "its" is actually possessive. I didn't know that! So its mine. "The accounts receivable belonged to its creditor after liquidation." <-- I just made this sentence up. But yeah... You wouldn't use apostraphe. Because I always used apostraphe for possessive. I guess that's only for someones name. For example, "AccountantMafia's muffin". Anything else I learned? Yeah I learned a bit more about my weaknesses. Thank goodness I'm not taking tax as my elective of focus for the CFE. But I'll still see it on Day 3 for sure! So, I gotta be pretty freaking decent!!!

Just woke up. Went swimming. Had breakfast while I watched my fav cartoon (above). Then I played some retro game: Clayfighters for Sega Genesis. I used to play it when I was kid. Damn this game is tough. I figured out the secret to winning but it's very hit or miss. You have to constantly block, and the time your attacks for after your opponent has attacked you. At one point I had to consult with the internet for some moves that I could do with the character Bad Mr. Frosty. Anyways, I look at it like. You're going to need to ask for help if things get too tough. Don't be afraid to ask for help!!!! In any scenario :) Okay, so I'm doing laundry right now... And now that I've done some oil pulling after my breakfast, I'm going to have a fish oil pill and a Ginkgo Biloba pill, and then i'll start studying. Today should be a very good day :) I can feel it!!! okay 0/10 for "feeling" it. I had to brush my teeth a bit because the coconut oil is not perfect. SO I brushed my teeth just a bit and flossed a bit. And then went at it with the oil pulling and now I'm back on track learning about estate freezes. Cool. Let's do this. Note to self: I might need to buy more socks. Feet are kinda cold.Ooo! Ooo! Good idea! Whatever you end up having to read, try and print it out since you read way faster off the computer... On the computer, I read like a 2 year old. lol Okay I'm exaggerating but yeah I like to print out and read.
One thing I noticed is these cases (related to day 1) are REALLY long.
- Try and read them fast (obviously don't sacrifice comprehension, but do go as fast as possible).
- Distractions (e.g. Sound). There will be distractions all around you at different times of writing the CFE. I wouldn't be surprised if I heard pages flipping or worse: farts ripping... LOL but seriously you might hear talking or anything else while writing your exam. That being said, you gotta have really good concentration. Concentrate hard enough that your brain will block out any distractions (to your 5 senses).
