Day in my life (college edition) 🎧🧸💻

My journey as an accounting major has definitely been a learning curve! Seeing those ACCT 3323 lectures on financial statements in my day often reminds me of how crucial it is to stay on top of the material. For anyone diving into accounting, here's what I've found super helpful: Firstly, don't just passively listen in lectures. I try to engage, ask questions (even if it's just to myself!), and take active notes. When it comes to homework, like the Chapter 4 Graded Homework or Chapter 3 Writing Prompt I tackled, I always try to start early. Procrastination is an accounting student's worst enemy! Breaking down complex problems into smaller steps makes them less daunting. And honestly, finding study groups or a tutor can make a world of difference when you hit a wall. Understanding the 'why' behind the numbers, rather than just memorizing formulas, makes financial statements click so much better. Starting a new job while in college, especially as an accounting major, can feel like a lot, but it's incredibly rewarding. My recent role, which involves working with Umango Practice Management, has been an amazing way to apply what I learn in class to real-world scenarios. It’s not just about earning some extra cash; it's about gaining invaluable experience. My top tip for balancing work and academics is strict time blocking. I literally schedule everything – classes, work shifts, study time, and even breaks. This helps me visualize my day and ensures I don't overcommit. Also, communicate openly with your employer about your student schedule; most are very understanding. It’s a marathon, not a sprint, so don’t be afraid to take a few deep breaths and reassess your schedule if things feel overwhelming. Beyond the books and work, making sure I have time for myself is crucial. My day in my life student vlog aesthetic isn't just about pretty pictures; it's about creating a routine that supports my well-being. Even mundane tasks like laundry time get scheduled! And yes, fitting in an Ab workout (hello, Pilates Challenge on YouTube!) or a quick shower after a long day helps clear my head. Dinner!! is my time to refuel, and I try to make it a mindful moment. And for unwinding? Nothing beats ending the night with Criminal Minds!. It’s my little escape. For anyone wanting to cultivate a more "aesthetic" or simply a more organized and enjoyable student life, start small. Find routines that work for you, whether it's a morning meditation, a planned outfit for the day (those pink flared pants definitely brighten things up!), or even just keeping your desk setup tidy. Remember, a successful college journey isn't just about grades; it's about thriving holistically.
