The 30 amp breaker will be for my welder which the plug will be right below the box. Will 10/2 be big enough for that 1 foot run?
Yes, for a wire welder that will work. If you plan on ever using a stick welder, they want a 50 amp circuit on #6.
Also I got some 4 tube drop in ceiling fixtures that use F32T8 tubes. How many of those can I daisy chain together on one 15 amp breaker?
Those pull about 1 amp each. You want to max out a circuit at about 80% of it's rating, so about 12-13 on a 15 amp circuit.
Also how many single recepticles can I put on one? And I'm assuming 12/2 will be good for all of that.
Yes, #12 wire for a 20a breaker. Also consider any outlet near a sink or outdoors needs to be on a GFIC outlet or breaker. How many depends on the load. Resistive loads, like electric heaters, pull a lot! One plug in heater will max out a circuit. So will a compressor or anything with a 3HP motor. Consider putting that on a 240v circuit if possible. Other hand tools, and such draw much less, but consider how many people will be working at one time. If only you, then the load drops.
Overkill is good, better to over build now than to have to come back later and redo!

Today's Featured Article - The Ferguson System Principal An implement cutting through the soil at a certain depth say eight inches requires a certain force or draft to pull it. Obviously that draft will increase if the implement runs deeper than eight inches, and decrease if it runs shallower. Why not use that draft fact to control the depth of work automatically? The draft forces are
