i don't like filling in my tax return. i used to coz it was easy - bang bang bang. done.
but now it's all hard. i don't think the government expects there to be full time volunteers whose "income" comes solely from gifts. and so i don't understand what i have to do. and there's a million different people giving me all this different advice - ranging from technically not having to declare anything coz it's all "gifts" to having to declare absolutely everything anyone ever gave me, except for my birthday.
either way, i think i've figured it out with all the income and deductions and stuff, and i'm gonna have to pay the government around $500. thems the breaks. it's only fair to pay my way after all. and the Bible says about giving Caesar what is Caesar's, since his face was on the coin and all. I don't think John Howard's face is on any coins, but the little kangaroo and emu are.
as an aside, i'm so thankful for the people who support me financially. what a blessing. hoorah for generous souls, and a generous God who looks after us.
