Aptitude for Accounting, not so much...

It is now November 1st, I have survived the Halloween Midnight Spree. Not because it is the night of ghosts or kids dressing up as monsters, but the night that 6 assignments were due and I did a final exam this morning. I did two final exams last Friday. It is such a relief! I can't imagine ever cramming like this again.  Maybe this is the kick in the boot-ay to better allocate my time, dedicate myself completely not just the few days before or of. 

School is important, accounting while extremely difficult for me to wrap my head around is complete. I can sigh a breath of relief that I have done what I can when I could and there is nothing left that I can do. It is now 12:21a.m., the deadline has whooshed by with me typing wrecklessly to submit every item I could do get points. It really is a game, you do this they give you points, if you get enough points you can move on to the next trial. I have played video games, ok.... one video game (Zelda) and love the sequentiality of it. You do this, reward, you do that, back you go to the beginning, no harm no foul. Academics however is not a no harm no foul, these marks will sit with me forever. If I bomb a test it will be on my permanent academic record for eternity, or at least until the University destroys them. Which makes me feel better. Ok deadline is past, I can go to bed!

    About me

    ​I grew up in Athabasca, AB and have spent the majority of my life in Northern Alberta or Montreal, PQ. My husband has been in Fort McMurray since the 70s and continues to love this town and all that it has to offer. We are avid outdoor enthusiasts, spending our summer weekends quadding and camping. As Opimian members we thoroughly enjoy wine pairings and tastings and are working on our wine collection. Ralph is a carpenter by trade and has framed more houses in Fort McMurray than I could count and knows the city inside and out. I work all throughout the region from the NWT to Janvier for the tribal council. My passion is doodling and photography which is featured throughout the website (various mediums), writing, Indigenous studies, and learning in general.

    Legal Note: This blog in no way represents the viewpoints of my employers. Specifically, the Athabasca Tribal Council  is not responsible for any statements made on this website.  The content is entirely my personal perspectives and meanderings.
