Please allow me to introduce myself

Hey folks,
I am a rising Junior studying accounting at Penn State. I enjoy being a degenerate, pretending that I make money investing, and convincing myself that the best way to spend my free time is learning about careers. I want to understand the financial world that interests me, I have plans to enter the big4 and hopefully get into a financial related field.

If anyone has any advice, be it related to big4 life, moving from accounting to finance, or anything really it would be much appreciated. I'm basically just a bright guy (or I'd like to think so at least) who enjoys learning new things and partying. If you have an interesting hobby or quirk I'd love to hear about it, I'm always looking for new ways to spend my free time.
