Greatttt News!

I woke up early Tuesday morning to check my emails that we keeping me up all night (more on that later) and decided to check to see if my last exam score had been posted. It had been delayed several times last week and I was getting antsy. I let out a little scream at 6:15 am (hopefully I didnt wake my roommate Tuttle who doesn't have a fourth wall!). I PASSED! My score was a 76 and you need a 75 to pass. Whew! Just made it :)

I have now passed all 4, count 'em FOUR, sections of my CPA exam! I am so happy to have these stinkers out of the way now. It has taken me a little over 1 year to complete this exam with many, many hours of studying and sacrificing social engagements. But now I am a free woman!

I have one 50 question ethics exam required by the state of California before I am officially:

Cheryl Berrey comma space CPA (I dont want to jinx it by writing it out until its official.)

My wonderful boyfriend got me these beautiful flowers (below) and a special note for this special occasion. What a thoughtful guy! I so wasn't expecting anything. Then we popped a bottle of mini pink champagne my friend Brienne gave me after I took my last exam. Jake made a corny little toast and we celebrated together by watching TV on the couch. (Well, I watched Rachel Zoe because she's my fav and he played around on his computer. Actually, a pretty typical night for us.) It was the perfect ending to a long, long road. Now, I can't wait to get my new business cards printed to include those 3 important letters!
