take this sinking boat & point it home

March 2, 2010

Reality set in yesterday when I got my accounting midterm back. I don’t understand how I am this stupid when it comes to calculating numbers? My Asian genes have seriously failed me. I got an A on my Computer Business Systems midterm (love computers, it was a breeze) and an A on my Small Business Essentials midterm (I am a true entrepreneur). But the embarrassing amount of red pen on my accounting midterm was a slap in the face. I clearly don’t understand it and I am obviously too stubborn to try and learn it. I promise you I’m actually smart, I just don’t wish to be a boring accountant (no offence to all my accountant friends!) can’t I just hire someone to do that for my business one day?Looks like I’ll have to get a tutor…bollocks. To add to the list of sucky, I am beyond broke right now. Bills have caught up to me and now there’s so many things coming up that I’ll need money for and I don’t have it. I never wanted to use my line of credit, but if I want to take a trip this year I don’t think I have a choice. That’s okay, I’m a student who isn’t in any debt…hopefully I have financials semi under control! Just not looking forward to owing the government thousands of dollars again this April, that was the worst!I finally saw Avatar on Thursday like two months after its been out in theatres. Make fun of that all you want, but the theatre was half full! Adam and I knew we had to see it before the Oscars and on a big screen for the full 3-D experience. I was really dreading this movie because from what I’d seen it just wasn’t my cup of tea, but wow I was proven wrong! The whole movie was beyond what I’d imagined and I would actually want to see it again just to look for other small details I missed the first time around. “I see you” …aww!

I also randomly watched ‘Once’ the other night because one of my roommates owns it and I’d heard it was pretty good. Sadly I hadn’t watched it all these years because I didn’t like the cover of the movie. Glen Hansard is amazing…brilliant…two thumbs up! Literally…I laughed, I cried, and I adopted an accent! The whole movie was so fantastic I immediately purchased the award winning soundtrack and have been listening to it on repeat over and over again. Though Falling Slowly is an old single, I had only ever heard The Frame’s version, never Glen and Marketa in love! And the music store scene…how amazing was that? I had to rewind it and watch it twice!

My whole outfit was inspired by the always classic nautical theme in anticipation of spring weather. Spring feels so close, I can already hear birds chirping in the morning and the temperature is uncharacteristically high. I can’t wait to not have to wear tights with skirts and dress…woohoo for bare legs! I’m sure the boys would agree.
