Money is such an annoying issue. Way too important. I just calculated what I earned 2008 and it's really not bad (but damn, where did all that money go?!), but it seems, 2008 will be the first year I'll have to pay income tax, because I earned more than the tax allowance. Eeek!!! *sigh* Oh well. On the other hand I got accepted at the artists social health insurance (Künstlersozialkasse), which means I'll only have to pay half of what I paid before, for my health insurance, so yay! I'll even get back a bit, unfortunatly not as much as I hoped I would.
Damn, it's again and again a good feeling to know I'm somehow handling this and since three years! One of the things about myself I'm really proud of.
The weekend will be busy! Friday I'll go to a birthday party, saturday is![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
oloriels wedding, where Thomas and I will dj. Sunday there is a concert in Bochum which we will attend, ASP unplugged. I'm looking forward to it!
And next week the semester starts again, I'm looking forward to it! At least to the seminar, I'm not that sure about my hand-project right now. I checked yesterday when I was at the school, only four people seem to attend it. Thats really, really not much. I wonder if it will be skipped? And if yes, what else will I do? But I don't really worry about it, I'm quite relaxed.
In general ... yes, I'm quite relaxed right now, I guess. Yes, looking for flatmates is tiring, looking for commissions* is tiring, but still.
The only real disturbance right now is that days pass too quickly and it feels as if I don't use them right, but waste too much time. I hope it will change as soon as the semester starts again.
* I decided not to call it job hunt anymore. It just makes more sense and somehow gives me a better feeling. Because I *have* a job, I'm a freelancer! And I do have commissions right now, just not enough, so I need more.
Interesting links on the subject of hourly wage for selfemployed people and freelancers, unfortunatly in german:
Dienstleistungs-Kalkulation: realistische Stundensätze berechnen (hahahaha! yeah, I wish ...)
Was kostet Kommunikation (hahahaha!²)
