So this week’s blog post is a free write. I’m not very good at this sort of thing so I guess it’s just going to be me rambling on. I’ll start with my school year, it started out really great, I thought my classes would go pretty easy and simple. They seemed to start out that way, but I have to remember, that I’m in 10th grade now and things are going to get even harder than they are now. So anyway, my classes have gotten harder than before and I’ve been stressing out a lot. Anytime I try to talk about it to my mom she usually just says it’ll be fine. That doesn’t help me or my stress much at all because I’m scared of my future. I’m afraid of not getting into a good college especially for Marine Biology. I get really stressed out when people ask me about my future because it is the future and no one can really tell what’s going to happen or where they’ll end up right? Well enough of that, I guess I’ll go a little more into my personal life. I’m not very big on being social and all, but I do have a group of friends that I couldn’t live without. I’m so thankful for them. The few that I have, have been there through thick and thin for me and I don’t think that life would be life without them. I just had my “sweet 16”, it wasn’t a big party, it was just a few of my friends and I having a major girl’s day at the mall and then watching movies and laughing all night. Having a “sweet 16” has been one of my dreams for awhile, but with the way things have been going at home I knew that wouldn’t happen. Although I didn’t get a huge party, I did have fun and I’m thankful for what I was allowed to do and I’m thankful for the way the party went. Something else to know about me, is that “tired” has basically become part of my personality. I’m always tired and always wanting to sleep. I basically use it as an escape away from all the drama or arguing that goes on between my sister and mom and I. It isn’t awful but sometimes it is extremely annoying and sleeping makes it stop. I’m also a huge music freak. Music is like the one thing that keeps me focused or takes me away from all the drama that my friends have. I love all my friends, but sometimes the drama they get twisted in is completely pointless and worthless. Sometimes it’s stuff like someone making up rumors or something calling their dog stupid. Pointless stuff that doesn’t matter at all, so I just put on my headphones and ignore all the drama. Well… Thanks for reading this completely pointless boring free write.
Over my Christmas break, I didn’t do all that much. Some was good, some was bad. The first week was a lot of fun, it started out nice because I got to hang with Brandi. Then Christmas Eve came around and we had my first Christmas which was at my grandma’s house. This was the biggest one we would have. It included my aunt and uncle, my grandma and grandpa, my mom, my sister, and I. This was also going to be the most expensive presents any of us get considering the next two Christmases would be smaller. I enjoyed this Christmas myself because I got a new white north face pullover, which I was very excited about, I also got a beret, and some orange beats. The beats were probably the most exciting thing to me. I have been waiting around a year for some beats but never got any. I’m a huge music freak and I like to block out the world sometimes, so these were perfect for that. On to my second Christmas. This one was at home with my mom and sister on Christmas day. We got up around 8 or 9 and opened our gifts from the three of us. My mom had bought me a nook and two hats, while my sister bought me a new shirt. We decided to go to my aunt’s for breakfast which was just down the road. I changed into the shirt my sister had bought me and put on one of the beanies my mom had bought me. After we came home, we freshened up a little bit and headed to my great aunt’s house for what was going to be my third Christmas. We opened the gifts from my great grandparents and my great aunt while they opened theirs. After presents, I finally got my nook set up with a credit card and my gift cards so I could buy some books. I usually don’t read, but I was interested in some books at Barnes & Noble and wanted to buy them. After the three Christmases we had, time passed pretty slow. The Sunday after Christmas and before New Years kind of sucked for me, but there’s no need to get into that right now. My New Years almost ended up with me stuck at home with my cat because I wasn’t invited anywhere. I had been texting Sierra and mentioned being alone on New Years and she invited me over. I was only supposed to stay until about 6 and then go home and spend the night by myself while cuddling with my fat cat, but Sierra decided to ask her mom if I could stay with them and her mom said that it was okay. We had to babysit 8 kids which was crazy at first because none of them were listening, but as it got a little later they started to calm down. We played some games with them before we went outside at midnight to make some noise. We went back inside and most of them crashed pretty soon. Sierra, Nicole, and I didn’t go to bed until around 1:30 that night. After New Years my week was kind of sucky considering things from Sunday. But I’ll admit it wasn’t terrible. Then we got this past week off of school except for Friday due to snow days. Although I had spent a lot of my break alone, Nicole did come over and stay for about a week. We pretty much just lied around and watched movies all day and night. Once she went home, I went over to Sierra’s for a night and then back home it was and then school Friday. Mother Nature decided our break was over and we needed to go to school for one day at the end of the week. I’d say overall my break was pretty good. Although it had its ups and DOWNs, I did enjoy the break from school and the outernet (outside world). |
