When I named this site “AccountingElf” the creatures I had in mind were the elves from the story “The Elves and the Shoemaker.” While the Shoemaker slept, the elves did careful, beautiful work making shoes.

Unlike the elves in the story, I do not really stay up all night doing accounting. Sometimes I even have time for fun!

I have a lot to post about – last week was my university’s Accounting Career Fair, where I got to meet a few of the firms that are actually hiring this season. Over the weekend we had our first home football game, which means an abundance of craziness everywhere. This week it was back to school with some group projects, and luckily a few recruiting events in the wake of the career fair.

I’m in the middle of reading for tax class tomorrow, so I’m going to get back to that, but hopefully I can put some substantial posts up soon.

I’m quite happy with my levels of studying for the last couple of days. I just need to keep it up tomorrow, and we’ll call it a good week (despite the football weekend!)
