+Went to 9 Square Mall in Kunshan for the first time, taking two new friends with me. Was huge, and I bought lots of clothes for the job. +due to my Chinese speaking ability, I made a few new friends at the mall. All girls...hahaha, I think my wife hates this. Lol +went to the Kunshan Annual Beer and Music Festival -endless Tsingtao lager and random dark lager is not acceptable for a beer festival, although expected in Kunshan. +I made another awesome friend at the beer festival. A guy who used to live in St. Louis for 8 years, San Diego for 10 years, and is now CEO of his own branch of biology here in Kunshan (Chinese citizen). +I realized that it's super easy to make friends in China if you can speak even the smallest amount of their language, or if you are foreign and there is alcohol being consumed by everyone. Lol

+ Annoying racist and loudmouth person at work at fired the other day. I'm not sure why, but it was probably for being annoying and racist and loudmouth. (Of note, we have no minority employees at this office, just many many women making me the minority i guess.) I'll find out what she said tomorrow, but evidently it was pretty bad, because she says something dumb almost every day. It just must have been to the wrong person at the wrong time.

+Finally starting a new part time job (pharmacy technician) tomorrow after getting fired from my full time job back in mid-June (long story, but not one where I said or did something so asinine that I brought it on myself) +Got my ass back on this board - definitely have been dormant more this summer +Actually had a solid week with consistently working out and making better choices rather than giving in to my mental shit and anxiety like actually going to youth group this week (I'm a counselor in the youth group at my church - let's just say my music tastes stand out like a sore thumb there ) +T-minus 3 weeks until my wife and I get our English cream retriever puppy we picked out last week. Dude's name will be Murphy!

+ Back to school. - First semester in years that I’ve been single, don’t really know how to get back in the game. It’s college, the time to act is right now but I don’t remember how I used to pick up chicks.

I believe the new mating rituals are dabbing and Fortnite dances, browse up on those skills and you'll be swimming in chicks.

- another frustrating day at work today
- starting to get ticked off at my job position/manager
+/- considering a lateral move to another position. Same time frame as my current position, dunno about pay scale tho.
+/- also considering applying at another retail store once applications open up for it. (Store set to open by Oct./Nov., and I live literally 5 mins. away.)
+ gamed the afternoon away with some friends. Holy shit I’ve gotten so fuckin’ rusty at Super Sm4sh Bros.
+ end of the month gaming get-together with friends is tomorrow. Looking forward to getting through my shift and letting my stress melt away for an afternoon.

-/+ Been getting headaches lately. Went to the opticians and my prescription hasn't changed. At least I don't have to buy new glasses. - Work has been a drag lately. Thinking about looking for a new job but I'm so comfortable where I am now and the grass isn't always greener. + Turned 30, went out for a nice meal and got some nice gifts and messages. + Four day weekend which will mostly consist of football, motorsport, vidya and films.

+/- sold around 150-200 CD's this past month; didn't get a whole lot for them though. Taking steps toward digitizing about 2/3 of my entire CD collection, and selling off the stuff that I still listen to from time to time, but not often enough to justify owning a hard copy anymore. Sold some vinyl too, but it was the lesser stuff, like compilations.
- Been fighting through a cold for the past several days. Really sucks because I had to call in for the past two days at work. This year has been one for the ages for getting sick, getting sick at odd times of the year instead of the "normal" times of the year. Hoo boy.
+/- Going back to school. I know the semester already started but I had some issues to clear up with my school. Could use some prayers, and if you're nonreligious, could use good thoughts/vibes/luck/what have you, as I've had personal issues pop up for the past two years that held me back from taking my class, and now that I'm going back I feel nervous that I'm going to slip up and do bad. Need two more semesters of this and then I graduate with a Bachelors, so the onus is self-inflicted and on me to finish. I really fucking want to finish, you can't believe.
