Sequel to my life

You might be wondering why I titled this as it is. Let me explain to you in detail. I decided that I am going to do my Masters of Accountancy in Information Systems Auditing. It seems like a good idea considering that the information is stored in a system, and as an accountant you need to understand database software to implement audit techniques. At first, I thought it was a good idea, you know learning about technology and etc. This semester, one of my classes is Information System Auditing and Controls. At the begining of the semester, I learned ACL software that helps input data for audit purpose. In addition, I utilize Microsoft Access SQL to type in a query. ACL is just like Microsoft Excel, you play around with it and then you can get the answer that you want. All you need to do is carefully examine the question and then you can do anything you want. On the other hand, Access, typing a SQL query is like the most difficult thing to do. If part of your query does not work, then you will have to find for your mistakes which is annoying. Imagine, just a simple comma, or a dot can make a difference. Today, was my first exam and guess what. We had to use both software for our solution. ACL part, not that difficult. Probably got the most points out of that. Access part, not so much. Did not have time to finish.

On a bright side, the professor was kind enough to announce that we can take home this exam and it will count as part of grade. Oh man, I literally wanted to jump in joy. After class, my friends and I rushed to the computer lab and worked on it. I did not have eat anything till evening. All I had was a powerbar for snack in between my classes. Luckily, I got done with all my work, and submitted. Hopefully, this will help me boost up my grades. Not really expecting a good outcome but pray for best. Tomorrow, I have a lot of things to do. ISAC homework in particular. 3 pages to review and a quiz on Thursday. I guess homework is starting to pile up real quick. Better get myself organized so that I don't get too caught up with homework.
