Textbooks

I have a love/hate relationship with textbooks. I know they are great in aiding my learning, but boy, my wallet sure does not like them.



Cornerstones of Cost Accounting - $133 off half.com

Taxation of Individual and Business Entities 2012 (three-hole-punched version) - $191 off amazon.com

Thank goodness I get to reuse my Financial Accounting textbook from last semester!!

On a side note, how exciting do those classes sound?!

Merry Christmas!!

Even though we did not have the white Christmas I was hoping for, we still had a wonderful Christmas! I've loved celebrating and enjoying all the fun things of this season. After finals, we went down to the Riverwoods to look at all the lights. It was magical. I loved it. And then this past week I've thoroughly been enjoying relaxing and spending time with the family. Not having to worry about classes and homework is so great!

I also have to give a quick shout out to my dear friend Kim from high school who got married this past Wednesday. She looked beautiful and so happy. 


Congrats Kim! I'm so excited for you!

I also got to go up to Daniels Summit Lodge up past Heber for a few days with my family. It was wonderful to just get away and relax with them. We also got to go snowmobiling for my first time and I absolutely loved it! Hopefully this will be a new family tradition.

Finals.

Well my friends, it's that time of the year again: finals week. Which we all super love. My hardest final was on Monday at 7:00 AM so the majority of my weekend was spend reviewing tons of material. But, it's done, and now I just get to cruise to the finish! I had my second final this morning at 7:00 AM. Don't be too jealous of how early my tests are! Now I just have my religion final at 5:45 tonight and one more Friday morning and then it's time to celebrate. Can't wait!

P.S. I went to the Festival of Trees a few weeks ago with my besties! I've been wanting to go for years now and I absolutely loved looking at the incredible trees and gingerbread houses. Some people are so talented! Going there will have to be my new Christmas tradition for sure.






P.S.S. I also got to go to the Christmas Devotional at the Conference Center a few weeks ago with some good friends. So fun to be there!
