You know you seriously need to get your own checks when you transfer money to your parents' account and then have your dad write the check for you to pay your income taxes.

So, I'm an official Taxpayer for the first time now. I grumbled about it at first because everybody else was getting refunds, but I'm not complaining anymore because... oh yeah... I still live with my parents.

At work, prices for dry cleaning were just raised from $3.75 apiece to $4.25, which will mean more irate customers to deal with. Oh joy.

I need to get a move on looking for a music-related entry-level job to get some experience before I graduate. I can't believe I'm nearly halfway through my 4 years (or 3 1/2, if all goes well).

Woohooo! Welcome to the wonderful world of Tax Forms and W2'S! :) I wonder how many countries actually have people file their taxes, cause I know in England they don't have any sort of filing stuff....you pay your taxes out of payroll, end of the story. :)

Even though it's a hassle (actually not that bad for me), I'm sure glad it's not like that here. :) I wish we paid ALL our taxes ourselves, because 1) it makes people more willing to fight for lower taxes, and 2) (my dad made another good point) our tax money can keep earning interest for us until we pay it. Not that I earn much interest now, but it all adds up... ;)
