Hey, how's it going? Yeah, it's been awhile. Thought I'd update. I've been occupied with work, Youtube, video games (Zelda Ocarina of Time and Majora's Mask), hanging out with relatives and friends (now that our lockdown's ended since last month), and reading more SCP articles (I'm in the 3500s now).

I got both my shots (pfizer), and reopened my aesthetics business last month. Things have been getting a bit better there where I'm gaining some more clients, I don't have to make people sign waiver sheets for my services anymore, I can do facials and face waxing again, and we have another person working there. Only problems I'm facing are that I'm still struggling with the gel/artificial nails where I can't get them to stick (I'm having trouble applying the gel solutions properly and shaping), I've had to buy hundreds of dollars worth of more materials, and the rent cost's gonna increase for me later in the year. Depending on how the gel/artificial nails go for me, and if I can afford the rent cost in the long run determines whether I will be remaining there or not. I was gonna give it till next September, but I think it'll be much earlier than that. I'll see where this goes.

Not much has changed for the cashier job. Our protocols are more laid back where we don't have a limit for how many people are allowed in the store, and we don't have to wipe our stations after every customer. The only areas we have to wipe are dirty spots, and the debit/credit machines after every use. The only struggles I'm facing while working there are that everyone's hours (including mine) have been cut, and we're dealing with more problematic customers than before.

I haven't been creating anything for awhile. I miss doing that and wish to get back to drawing and making Youtube vids again, but a lot of things just keep being thrown at me, and I've been distracted with other hobbies. I've also been trying to stay away from visiting most social media sites since it gives me information overload that can get overwhelming, and there's just too much negativity happening that's not good for me mentally. I gotta say that staying away often has been putting me at ease. At the same time it bugs me 'cause there would be times where I want to stay consistent with checking updates relating to my interests and my family and friends on what's happening, and clearing out notifications.

Overall, things have been okay with me. Still pretty much stuck in limbo with what I want to do in life. I've just got too much on my plate and in my brain that I don't even know where to start. Hope y'all are doing okay too. Ciao for now.
