Accounting

here are a few recent things i've found online that have to do with accounting...& that i found funny. hopefully you can find the humor in some of these items as well...and i promise i don't blog about accounting that frequently :)

**saw this quote on tumblr and it made me feel pretty proud of myself (even if i've only currently passed 3 of the 4 sections...)

World’s Toughest Tests and Final Exams

1. CPA - Through both word of mouth testimonials and scouring the depths of the Internet, the masses agree, the final exam to become a CPA (Certified Public Accountant) is the toughest final exam one can face. In fact, slightly less than 40% of those that take the test actually pass it the first time. It’s a grueling closed book and administered test that truly separates the men from the boys.  (source)

**this link pretty much makes my day every time i reread those jokes...and the video at the end is pretty cute too

Steel Bridge

so the steel bridge competition came to Clemson at the end of May. I don't really know anything about this other than the fact that my brother was team captain and it was the most nerve-racking thing ever...even worse than when he was playing baseball.

June Pictures from the iphone

 {evidently she decided that this wasn't what she really wanted to wear}

 {just practicing for football season}

 {child-proof what's that?}

 

 {two lovely sets of bite marks, courtesy of his adorable little sister}

 {seriously does child-proofing work for you?}

 {she fell and hit her head on the wooden activity cube...this picture makes it look worse than it actually was...and it didn't even really bleed...and i was probably way more scared than she was...oh and this happened the day after the biting incident...we had a stellar two days :) }

 

 {stuck and not happy}

 {who me?}

 {seriously where did the baby in her go because she can definitely pass as a big girl now}

 {new car seats for staci's car...and R just cracks me up with her face...she needs a bow or some pink...in my defense her shorts were hot pink...and hey she picked the outfit}

 {adorable}

 {helping set-up for VBS}

 {oh did i mention R can open the cabinets...}

the cruise

in may,  my family went on a cruise to the bahamas. it was my first time going on a cruise and i really enjoyed it. my dad, brother and i went snorkeling in Freeport and then we just wandered around in Nassau. I tried to give an unofficial tour of the Atlantis to my parents & brother but it has been a while since i was there...and there are a lot of places you can't go if you aren't a guest of the Atlantis...who knew!?

the water was a little rough so you could definitely tell you were on a boat but that didn't bother me at all. however my brother gets motion sickness and he was not a fan of all the movement. we had a really good time with minimal fighting...jonathan and i made it all the way to dinner the last night but i guess we had just had too much togetherness :)

all in all it was a really fun trip and my parents are already talking about the next cruise they want to go on.

We have a ton of pictures but here are some that i had on my iphone...the rest i'll have to get from my mom.

 {my snorkeling outfit...aka what i wore while we walked around Freeport afterwards and i had an amazing mixed drink or three...but still really wished i had thrown a pair of shorts into my bag}

 {the brother: Jonathan}

 {atlantis in the background}

 {day drinking while riding in a cab around Nassau...totally normal}

{timeshares i stayed in when i visited the bahamas/the atlantis when in high school}
