Big Words in Accounting – part 2

So this was the first week we had class on both Tuesday (Stats) and Thursday (Mgmt Accounting). We had this ‘Rendezvous at Rotman’(free food and drinks) before class started on Thursday, and some things have come to our attention. We, part-timers are clearly at a disadvantage... all the info sessions, club meetings, and career coaching workshops are during the day. Makes sense since 80% of the students are full-time, however not great for us. This means we have to make an extra effort to get involved and participate in our mba instead of just warming seats.

For our management accounting course, we have the same professor we had for Financial accounting – this is good as we know what to expect in terms of the exam and assignments. The accounting prof did teach me something in class.. Did you know that inventoriable is a word?? We thought he made it up.. but go ahead google it.. also learned interesting slang words courtesy of a classmate/urban dictionary... stripper wallet, little steve, smell check, ignoranus, and my personal favourite, work hot.. so when you put them all together...

Update: sentence removed due to possibility of libel lawsuit and bad karma!

This is what I do to relieve some stress.... make silly incomprehensible sentences with stupid words...it is the bad writer in me....Highly recommend urban dictionary if you want a chuckle in class or at work.

Another classmate informed us of this website that rates your professors ...very useful when deciding electives. It also has a field where you can rate the hotness of your profs, some of those hotness ratings are questionable at best. lol. Must go and do some stats homework. Apparently two people failed stats last year.

Hahaha.... very impressed with that sentence!! I don't know if I could've come up with one using all those words. And when you think about it, I could see the real 'Little Steve' actually doing such a thing...

ms - I won't tell you how long it took me to come up with that sentence.

Regardless of the time put into crafting the sentence....it's golden. Glad to see you are being productive in class, Bridget!
