Okay, so, here are the updates:
-I graduated magna cum laude (3.89 gpa) on May 14, 2011.
-I've been looking for jobs even before then.
-I've applied for the CPA examination--hoping to get my NTS (notice to schedule) in 6 weeks or less (*fingers crossed*)
-I've walked along the Gring's Mill to Red Bridge trail (first with Joe and then with my parents).
-I've walked along the Saw Mill to Mansion trail at Nolde Park (with my parents).
-I've been cantoring regularly at St. Anthony's every Saturday evenings.
-I've... etc etc etc...
Clearly I've had quite a lot since I last blogged.

I'm in VA at the moment-- really treating this as a vacation since I will have to focus on studying for the FAR part of the CPA exam (my target is 7 weeks -- 6 weeks is just pushing it). I'm with my family, and as usual, the drive was LONG!!!

My goals in life are ambitious, but simple at the same time. My career goal is to be a partner of a firm. However, before that, I would really like to know the nooks and crannies of the public accounting world. Public accounting is clearly the career path I would like to get into--specifically taxation and international accounting (which is a good combo nowadays since IFRS is well underway).
There was a time when I wanted to travel the world--but I realized that I disliked traveling A LOT--unless it's work-related. I would like to live wherever there is less crime and more peace and cordiality. I would most likely want to live in a family-friendly suburban area (whether or not I work in an urban area). I would like to have a family with hopefully 2 children and a loving, family-oriented, and responsible husband. (LOL--THIS IS TMI!!!)
Anyway, those are my goals for now. I used to have really career-minded goals, but I now think that having a family and settling down would probably make me happier. I still have hopes to help someone achieve his or her dreams by sponsoring him or her to college. I still am a strong believer of education.
Well, that's all for today!!! :-)
Thanks again for reading! Stay strong and happy!!! <3
Love to the nth power,
Mabelle
