A little less than 4 months, this detour started. For four months, I worked. I stressed and read until it was finally time to take the test. Like last time, there was lots of stress, lots of reading, lots of neglecting TV shows I wanted to watch. Now it's the waiting part. Sitting. Looking for a job and trying not to replay the exam over and over and dwell on what went right and what went wrong.
That's the problem with a lot of time. It can either be a good time or a bad time, depending on your mood and what you make of it. This morning, I read this on
Humans of New York:
"Time off is a space where you allow things to happen other than the known.”
I think that's the perfect way to look at the next few days, weeks, or however long this time off lasts.
I'm happy you're back blogging! Good luck on the test, I understand how you feel. I would obsess over my CPA exams after taking them even though there was nothing I could do but wait for my scores. It's hard to not think about it while waiting (I had CPA Exam related nightmares) but really the best thing you can do is try and move on and distract yourself while you wait. Good luck, fingers crossed!
