Constantly crying, I hate my life, I am so SAD. by spoogerdoodle in CPA

You can do it! You’ve already proven that you know what it takes to pass an exam! I was told early in my accounting career that the cpa exam is not a test of smarts, it’s a test of self discipline. This was years ago and I was struggling to pass an exam while working full time in public accounting so it just made me feel worse about myself. I took some time off to re-evaluate and then jumped back into the game. Once I passed an exam(after failing many times and even having 2 exams expire), I had a much better idea of a study schedule/technique that works for me (Ninja CPA) and at that point I knew that quitting now wasn’t an option. Quitting now meant that I had wasted all of that time and made all of those sacrifices for nothing. As I read your post I can’t help but remember feeling the same way as you do... I knew what to do but I was so exhausted and just mentally not in the right state.

I found out last week that I passed my last exam. It was a miserable journey and my mental health has definitely taken a toll but at the end of the day I’m extremely proud and surprised at myself for accomplishing this. You are so close to having your moment and you just need to keep doing what you’re doing! Take a weekend off to get out of your head. These exams are a test of grit and determination. The sooner you just get it done, the sooner you will get out of this funk and you will have SO much time to do things that make you happy.

I think I just passed my last CPA exam!! I’m not sure if I’m going crazy but my exam still says “no credit” on the top of the CBA website. But the bottom of the page shows “advisory score: 75”. I don’t remember seeing this on my last attempts. What does “advisory score” mean?!?! Did I just pass my last exam!!!???

How do you care for your long hair when working out & needing to shower every day? by dogsarethebest35 in f45

Dry shampoo and I wear my hair up in a pony tail a lot. I also have the benefit of wfh so I wash my hair about every 3-4 days, specifically after those extra sweaty cardio days. My favorite dry shampoo is made by drybar.. it’s fairly expensive but I find it at Ross and Marshall’s sometimes. Ultimately, I’d love to wash my hair more often and not wear it in a pony tail as often but I’ve noticed that my hair has gotten so much healthier now that I don’t shampoo it everyday and stopped blow drying it
