Become a Tax Preparer

- brandy3

I never knew how in demand Tax Preparer’s are in demand, I was helping out a few people this tax season and it was overwhelming how many people did not know how to file. I have been spreading the word to people about taking classes to get a tax preparer certification.

When my aunt lost her job , she and a bunch of her co-workers decided to take classes and earn their CPA. They had to take the Tax Preparer Exam to get their certificate. It will be well work it though once tax time rolls around again. The job will be in demand. Even no working for companies, the job is high quality.

Finally Getting to See the City

- brandy3

We have lived in Long Island for 2 years now, and have never really seen the sights of New York City. Of course we have seen Time Square and the Tree in rockafeller center, other than that nothing.
So this weekend we had family visiting and finally got to see some attractions. We took the Staten Island Ferry for a ride. We were only in Staten Island for 3 minutes, then we came back. It was all about the ride.
You get to see the Manhattan skyline, as well as the new World Trade centers.

On the ferry ride you also pass by Lady Liberty

 

We also got to see a overtop view. Usually you would go to the empire state building, but we wanted to avoid the lines. So we went to Rockafeller, they have the Top Of the Rock. It was really cool, but expensive. The elevators have a planetarium effect. The top of the rock is 67 stories high and gives a great view if central park.

After that it was a full day, but fun. I am happy we finally got to see fun things.

Oz The Great and Powerful Trailer

- brandy3

Disney’s fantastical adventure “Oz The Great and Powerful,” directed by Sam Raimi, imagines the origins of L. Frank Baum’s beloved character, the Wizard of Oz. When Oscar Diggs (James Franco), a small-time circus magician with dubious ethics, is hurled away from dusty Kansas to the vibrant Land of Oz, he thinks he’s hit the jackpot—fame and fortune are his for the taking—that is until he meets three witches, Theodora (Mila Kunis), Evanora (Rachel Weisz) and Glinda (Michelle Williams), who are not convinced he is the great wizard everyone’s been expecting. Reluctantly drawn into the epic problems facing the Land of Oz and its inhabitants, Oscar must find out who is good and who is evil before it is too late. Putting his magical arts to use through illusion, ingenuity—and even a bit of wizardry—Oscar transforms himself not only into the great and powerful Wizard of Oz but into a better man as well.
