Not to strong, looking to get stronger

Should have done one of these a little sooner. Due to the amount of sets and reps, it isnt key for heavy increases. Most lifts are increasing in small amounts steadily. Probably will update it in a couple weeks. Anything else I should include in a journal?
Day one

Barbell bench press 4 x 8-12- 100lbs and increasing
Deadlift 4 x 8-12- 230 increasing increasing
Seated military press 4 x 8-12- 95lbs increasing
Barbell curl 4 x 8-12- 75lbs, still killing my wrists.
Weighted dip 4 x 8-14- 30-40lbs assisted but improving steadily
Day two: OFF

Day three

Squat 6 x 8-20(pyramid up in weight, down in reps)-95,115,135,155,165,135
1RM- 225
Stiff-legged deadlift 4 x 10
Leg press 3 x 10-15
Lying leg curl 4 x 10
Standing calf raise 3 x 10
Day four

Chin-up 4 x 8-12- Assisted
Incline dumbbell press 4 x 8-12- #35 db increasing
Barbell row 4 x 8-12- 115
Seated dumbbell press 4 x 8-12- #35

This last friday was decent, but I struggled a bit on the squat. Im not eating near enough, I dont have any powder, and my check comes Bi-weekly. I need to make myself a "cooking night" and bring stuff to school and work with me. My gains are going to suffer if I dont.
