+ can do bar chords on guitar quite well now
– they’re a bitch to hold for longer periods of time
+ using thumb on low E helps, I use it with minor bar chords (i.e. G#m, 4x6444) while using full barres for major ones
+ I’ve memorized most open chords too
+ fingertips not hurting anymore

- Looks like I'm going to have to go back to wet-wraps for a bit
+ One week to go to Samus Returns!
+ Got all the Chaos Emeralds as Knuckles, still need to do it for Sonic+Tails.

+ Went to see the Emoji Movie at the cinema
- It was apparently in 3D When it was supposed to be 2D and the 3D glasses were forgotten
+/- Got a little "kids meal" from KFC.

– Sorry, shyness won’t let me.
– Also, I don’t have recording equipment.

+ Weekend at least.
+/- School is starting soon
+ Will Enjoy this vacation while it lasts

– I’m pissed off

- Last day of vacation for me.
+/- Will sue the power company "figuratively" if any more outages interrupt my pleasures today(like last night)
+ Will try to do what I want as much as I can.
+ Is concerned that I made what I just said sound like a mission.

+ Only one class left that I need to get to 20% completed before the end of this week. Almost there with that one.
- So many assessments in economics and Spanish class. Thankfully Science and English don't have a lot to do.

+ So far, so Good. No more interruptions for the day.
+ No more power outages now.
+ Not pissed off for a reason.

+ Thankful that the hurricane got weakened as much as it had before hitting my city. No power outage, still have water.
- Apparently wastewater pumps broke in my county. Can't use tap anything for now.

+ Will take a good rest on such a relaxing cool night

- Feels very bad to hear the news but..
+ Knows some good will come through to make things better

+ Today was the first day it was cool enough to wear my new jeans
- The AC at work is stupidly cold, I think it's like 7C compared to the 16C outside (I don't think they turned it down, so it being colder outside just made the office unbearable)

+ got to college today

- it was maths

+ It will be nice and cool tonight since the rain fell which means that I will have another great relaxation
- Knows how Harold-_- feels

– People are expressing dislike of Maths.
+ Perhaps a few lessons are in order, relating to the behaviours of Ting counts.

+ Wrote some Python today for the first time in a while.
– Not much… so far.

+ No troubles getting home according to the bus service
- Carried a bag that was not wanted for today
+ No more errors on a given schedule belonging to me

+/- I do not understand why I'm not able to fall asleep before 5-6 AM despite having to wake up at 8:00 for work, and why I'm somehow able to function consistently fine on 2-4 hours of sleep for an entire week straight, barring feeling tired for like an hour at around noon.

- Maybe it is affecting my performance, because I just spent three days trying to figure out why my SQL commands were failing when executed by the software, only to realise I forgot to open the connection in the first place. My coworker being off until January because of University doesn't help stupid-checking either.

- I got a Bacon King from Burger King yesterday at lunch I was saving for dinner, only to find my dog devouring it on top of the kitchen counter right before I was about to chow down. Fucking dick! That's a big-ass $7 burger.

+ I love my dog

+ My brother and I made spicy noodles and quinoa instead

+ Thursday, meaning tomorrow is Friday, meaning the next day is Saturday, meaning a better opportunity to try and fix my sleeping schedule

- Thursday is not Saturday

- 0 hours of sleep today, because juatever. I was working on a music commission until 3 AM, then did a week's worth of dishes until 5 AM (someone broke our dishwasher during the last party), then noticed I made a mistake in the music commission and had to go back and fix it, and now it's 7:15

+ I should be finished up with a small financials program for my boss today, after which I'll be switching over to working with the branding/marketing team to overhaul the company's presentation for their 50th anniversary this year, starting with the creation of an actual visual design code.

+ Thank god, because at least I could lead a visual design meeting in my sleep, almost literally here

- Found a pile of nice winter clothes I'd lost since June… in the corner of the sauna under a bench, covered in mould

+ I'm now in university accomodation and I'm enjoying every second of it!
+ After months and months of searching, I found and ordered a game from eBay that, up until that point, I wasn't sure even existed!
+ Thanks to the university giving me way too much money to spend in an online shop, I have also ordered a 21:9 monitor while spending no money!

- Hearing folks getting settled in Uni and finishing sixth form makes me feel old.
+ Though it does make me nostalgic, I don't know...
- Maybe I'm feeling a little melancholy knowing that this is my final year, and some of my peers have already graduated since they were on Bachelors

Though enough reminiscing and self reflection, I do hope you enjoy your uni years, I'm guessing it's freshers next week, right? We ended up starting early and doing a small challenge. I didn't see the point of it at the time, but I am glad we went through it. It was a nice ice-breaker and it helped me get to know my fellow classmates. Perhaps if you can, try seeing if you can't find some of your future classmates, it'll be useful to know the folks you could potentially be working with in the coming years.
