Fire Alarm

So I have this knack for being in the right place at the wrong time. Fire alarms are not uncommon when I’m around. I participated in drills all the time during elementary school. I traveled to Western Europe several years ago. Apparently they love their fire drills. They got me rushing out of the shower just to practice a “false alarm.” I also got separated from my dad at the Heathrow airport because of their crazy obsession with utter cacophony. Colleges have always been a battle ground for fire alarms. Students decide they don’t want to take tests, so they … Continue reading Fire Alarm

I just wrote a post on my second, … Continue reading Finals!

To be or not to be…hmmm…

As most of you know, I have a Tuesday/Thursday class schedule at UTA. Well, for my accounting info. systems class, I was told I had to attend a mandatory lecture Friday (10/12) at 7 pm. The guest speaker is a board member of FASB (faz-bee; a.k.a. Financial Accounting Standards Board.) This guy was also an employee of Arthur Andersen (ENRON!! Does this ring a bell? I had to write a paper about this in my Principles 1 class, so I should know…lol!) You wouldn’t think FASB and Arthur Andersen would appear together on a resume…oxymoron….Anyway, so I go to this … Continue reading To be or not to be…hmmm…
