Seriously Government?

So. I've been putting off doing my taxes for way too long.

Actually, I kind of forgot about them until last week.

But I decided I was going to do them myself... because after all, I AM an accounting student! And I took a tax class last semester, so I though I should use what I learned.

This week was crazy with school so I told myself I'd do it after Thursday's classes.

Well, turns out that mine are kind of complicated because I have to file Self-Employment for teaching, babysitting, and cleaning.

So I ended up sending them down to the CPA my parents use, instead of wasting my time and still probably have it totally wrong. And guess what... (even though my forms aren't done yet)... I have to pay A LOT, more like A TON in taxes.

Wow. Seriously Government?

My mom says I have no right to say anything because I'm not even registered to vote .
You'd think they'd be kind of nice to a college student though.

The point of all this is, I hate being an adult.... WHY DO I HAVE TO GROW UP ANYWAYS?

Hm... yes, I've been saying "seriously government?" a lot lately. :)

I'm impressed you tried to do your own taxes! Dad used to make me and it was awful and I cried every year... and now we take them to Bob's uncle and life is beautiful.

Being a responsible adult is no fun really... hehe.
