Masters Degree

Anthony — Tue, 31 Aug 2010 06:34:35 +0000

About 5 weeks ago, I started my Masters of Science in Accounting. I am pretty excited. This is a pretty big step that I have taken. I just recently finished the Bachelor’s Degree in Accountancy.

I am not currently doing anything with my degree, but I hope to eventually have a job working as a special agent for the IRS. I don’t have a lot to say right now, but hope to post more later.

Last Undergraduate Class?

Anthony — Mon, 24 May 2010 16:00:50 +0000

Today is the last day of my undergraduate accounting class. I am finishing up with ACC397: Advanced Topics in Accounting Research. This is basically a review class. This consists of financial statements, tax, audit, and even managerial accounting. I just finished up my final exam. Normally, I don’t blog about my school or about other classes, but this time it has just hit me that I am almost finished with my undergraduate studies. Today, I turn in my final exam, and also my last individual assignment.

I guess I have one more class left, which is what my point is. This last class is called Religion 133: World Religions. This class will last 5 weeks, and then I am done. I am not sure how this class is going to go. However, I have been told that this class talks mostly about the eastern religions. So, maybe I will learn something new. That is something that I am hoping for. After this class is done, then I go onto classes that are 6 weeks long.

Graduation

Anthony — Sat, 22 May 2010 15:00:36 +0000

Well, today is one of those days that I had always planned for. I always thought that this day wouldn’t come either. The day that I am speaking of is my graduation from college with a Bachelor’s Degree in Accounting. I am an online student at the University of Phoenix, but I am participating in graduation ceremonies with the Boise, Idaho campus. I am on my way to the Grove Hotel, which is where my graduation is going to take place here is just a couple of hours. However, I am not done with school quite yet. I am planning on starting my Masters of Science in Accounting in July. That program will take about a year to complete.

This is a big step in my life, that I am truly grateful for. I am especially grateful for my dear sweet wife, for her patience and help along the way. I don’t think I would have been able to do as well as I have, without her helping me along the way. She was always there to make sure that I got my homework done before I did extra curricular activities. I also know that she will continue to help me along the way as I pursue the rest of my schooling and career dreams.

Update

Just thought I would give a little update about myself. I haven’t been blogging that much lately. However, I have been busy with work and school. At work, not much as changed in what I do, except that I work night shifts (11pm – 7am) for the moment. That will change, and go back to my regular time (eventually).

And then at school, I am still at University of Phoenix. My current class is FIN320: Corporate Accounting. It is a fun class so far. I am only in the 2nd week of a 5 week class.

The Long Short Road

Anthony — Tue, 27 May 2008 14:30:13 +0000

Today, I started on the path to my Bachelors Degree in Accounting. I just finished my Associates, two weeks ago. This is a long road ahead, because it seems so far away. At the same time, it is a short road, because it will only take me about two years to finish up. If I don’t take any time off, then I should have my degree August 2010.

Associates Degree

Anthony — Fri, 09 May 2008 03:55:07 +0000

I am currently going to school at University of Phoenix. Currently, I am taking an economics class, which happens to be the last class before I finish my Associates Degree in Accounting. The classes in the program, are 9 weeks long. I am just now finishing up week 9, which means that I am pretty excited. I just now have to fill out my application for Graduation, and send that back in to the school.

And by the way, I am not quiting school. I am actually going to continue with my Bachelors, after a much needed 2 week break.

Greeting!!!

I have now just created my own blog. I will try to keep things updated here. I will post from time to time whenever anything cool or exciting happens.

And by the way, today is also April Fool’s Day (This, however, is not an April Fool’s joke).
