story
i started school in idaho in January of 2008. i enrolled as a business management major. in 2010 i realized that i didn't want to be a business major anymore.i began praying about it and trying to figure out what to do and what i should major in. that summer, i was in my first accounting class.
it was difficult work. i had to read and study and practice more than i ever had before. that semester i learned a great deal about learning. i passed the class...barely, but i knew that this was the subject i should study for the rest of my college career. so began the major change process.
after much frustration with offices, student employees, and other bureaucratic nonsense, i was a mess. i couldn't do it. i couldn't come to terms with how much schooling i had left. i couldn't deal. and at the end of the day, i was scared. scared of what it would mean if i couldn't change my major and what it could mean if i did. scared of what i would be required to do. so i put it off...as long as i could.
this christmas break it all came to a head, and a choice had to be made. i was reminded of the wonderful year that i'd had. i remembered all the wonderful experiences (many to be found on this blog) that happened because i decide to "let go and let God" and jump in. so i did. and after practicing that wonderful skill, you know, jumping through hoops, i got it changed. I am scheduled to graduate in December 2012 with a Bachelors of Science in Accounting and a minor* in Humanities.
i could not be more excited. i'm currently enrolled in four (yeah, that's right, 4) accounting classes. they are challenging,exciting, and life altering for me. the reason they are so exciting though, is that i am learning skills that i will be using in my professional life. speaking of, you wanna know what i want to do?
i dream of working with an organization that offers hope to inner city youth. an organization that teaches youth that there is a big world outside of the difficult world around them. and organization that teaches them the skill of hoping. so, if you know of an organization like this that needs an intern, an accounting intern this spring would you please let me know? thanks.
sincerely,
your humble bean counter
