Going on flight tonight. 8 years later finally heading back to Taiwan. It's going to be an emotional trip without questions, but I also gotta keep in mind that it's my long-awaited vacation and I ought to enjoy it the best I can.
As of this morning I weight 67.3kg, a new plateau stabilized for a month, which will soon increase from my vacation time but that's the mark I'll be aiming for when i come back. Then final goal 62kg expected to be reached by January 2026.
June recap: one of the best things was that I biked along the Steveston trail despite my lack of cycling practise and going 'alone', it was an exhilarating experience and what a good workout. I filed a complaint about the clinic doctor for the first time and that was that, nothing will be different except leaving a mark on her practise record. Good thing is the wait for a family MD is finally over, I will be (most likely) assigned to a nurse practitioner in Aug and that's one thing settled for years to come. Another good news is I got a federal full dental coverage so from now on I can benefit from this as well. Other than that I worked two event gigs - one being the bartender at synagogue which was a big win, the Serving It Right course paid off! One being the Holt's event, which is still a win cuz I will be able to work at Holt in the future so that's another door opened for me, and with these 2 gigs I made an extra 425 bucks. So that's 4 good things that happened in June. On the Nick front, we had a memorable talk on the 2nd but that was the highlight of the month. I can't help myself from shying away from him sometimes, we did have a brief exchange the other day at the garbage room by accident and from the way he looked at me he did seem to be a bit nervous talking to me, but also assertive in extending the conversation. All signs suggest that he does like me but gotta be careful not to overthink the signs.
In all 6 months: I took advantage of GVFB. I got a side job at the event company. I courageously asked out a guy for the first time, although rejected, I made a connection and there's the exp value. I sold my digital camera for some extra cash. Lost a few more pounds and looking glowy and healthy, I conquered my fear of checking emails and handling admin work, now I'm always on top of things. I got a full dental coverage and am on my way to getting a permanent NP. I booked a ticket for Taiwan for the first time in 8 years. I got upskilled with 2 new certs and one of them already took effect. I stuck with vaping without recoiling to smoking cigs. All and all, when the INTJ instincts kick in, good things really manifest themselves.
Goals for 2nd half of 2025: Spend quality time with family in Taiwan. Continue with job hunt; Get a new apt; Get teeth fixed and other health problems sorted out --- nail that NP meet-and-greet. Save money to repay Jess. Continue with workouts and reach the goal of 63kg by Dec. If possible upskill and take a bartending course.
