Ya know...that's not right. Accounting rules change every few years. And with tax accounting, those rules change every year (but I'm guessing all you've touched is book vs. federal tax differences..and I don't think those have changed within the past 10 years). So if all you're going by is what he's teaching in class rather than what's in your textbook, you're going to mess up on those exams, unless the exam questions are 10 years old too.

*pokes White* XD

[Lucid:]

it's an intro class, and it's basically all accounting for the books of a business, debits and credits, boring stuff. I hate this class so I don't actually care if it's outdated. XD

[Sadrain]

@o@ Sounds like a mean stuff. -hides in a cloud-

[Kamikaze Chinchilla]

Oh shoot x'D. Basic accounting is easy xD. Intermediate will kick your butt.

[Lucid:]

I'm not taking intermediate, so =P. I'm majoring in advertising.

[Kamikaze Chinchilla]

Advertise chinchillas. Chinchillas need loving families lol x'D

[Lucid:]

maybe I will someday. but for now I'm working on a big campaign for JC Penney. this project determines my entire future. D:

[Kamikaze Chinchilla]

Your future...dun dun duuuun xD ~ I'm sure you will do well ~ you and your sushi x'D

[Lucid:]

lawl, awesome sushi campaign. XD
my favorite sushi so far is the Tezu shrimp sushi. <3 Tezu disappeared. >o> **clings to Kami** D8

I think my group is doing well. we got our big idea, like, the first week, and we've only made it better since then. I don't know how often other groups meet or how they're doing, but apparently my professor and his TA totally ripped everyone apart during the checkup meetings last week. one of my group members overheard him saying so to the guest lecturer on monday. >.> but my group didn't really get torn apart. he just told us in a really roundabout way that it was good but to make sure the tagline was saying enough. we got super frustrated with his roundabout compliments and I finally had to say, "but you like the direction and idea, right?" and he was like, "well, yeah, I like where you're going with it. just make sure you execute it right."

we were just assigned mentors who are already in the ad program, and our mentor has no advice for us because we're doing so well. XD

[Kamikaze Chinchilla]

Tezu is, in fact, still around and very active. She just doesn't want to disclose her mule name.

Awesome x'D. You have awesome minds in your group x3

[Lucid:]

you would know. **cough**
yeah, I love my group. we got put together super-randomly (I decided to team up with one of the girls because we were both wearing red and white striped Where's Waldo-looking shirts that day, lawl) but we have such good group chemistry. I daresay we work together better than all the other groups in the class. so we are going to TOTALLY BEAT EVERYONE ELSE and hopefully our campaign is even good enough to be used in the national competition.

[Kamikaze Chinchilla]

*double cough* >0>

National competition would be epic x3

[Lucid:]

I didn't know chinchillas could cough! how cute! *O* **videotapes coughing chinchilla to put on youtube**

national competition would be super epic. the winner of the class competition isn't necessarily guaranteed to go on father just in case we all suck, but if our campaign is good enough, we get to work with the older kids who are in the program and have taken more classes and actually know what they're doing, and compete regionally first. if we win regionally, we go to new york. and if we get that far, we're basically guaranteed admittance to the ad program. which would be super awesome because I don't like worrying about whether I make it in. ;~;

[Kamikaze Chinchilla]

I'm sure if you forced them underwater long enough, they'd breath in water so they'd cough when you bring them back up TxT

Talents get you in x3. You have them.

[Lucid:]

awww, but I don't want to almost-kill chinchillas! just cruelly mistreat them occasionally. >.>;;

the thing I'm worried about is that I'm not really the idea-person. I'm creative execution. the idea people tell me what to do and I make it pretty. we were talking about print ads in our meeting last night and I just quietly sat in the corner sketching up everyone's ideas as they vocalized them. the ideas I had brought to the meeting were generally dull, and when I shared them, everyone else added tweaks to make them better. XD
a big portion of the application to the program is a 1-minute video advertising myself, and I have had a terribly hard time coming up with a decent concept. I have all summer to make it, but it still worries me. I'd really love to have the "I made it to new york in the JC Penney competition, so you have to admit me because I'm better than everyone else" card to play.
