So I can't STRESS this enough

Wow, I can not believe that I have not posted since March! Yeah, I say this every time..."So it's been a long time since I since I last wrote anything"...but it is so true! Trust me, I really do enjoy blogging. I'm not sure I have anyone who reads it, but I view blogging as a way to get out everything I want to say and keep whoever is interested updated on the goings of my life. Wow, so where do I begin? The last few months have been really, really hard on me. I'm still not sleeping at all, I am drowning in homework and stuff for school, and sadly, I still am not able to row because of my cursed knees. On the positive note, I have decided the 2011 is going to be a year of big changes for me, and it is going to be whether I like it or not. Last Sunday, I made the decision to go on a weight loss program because I want to actually be able to feel good about myself and my appearence, which is something that I haven't felt for a very, very long time. So I started a weight loss program almost two weeks ago and I've lost about 11 or 12 pounds, which I am very happy with! This year, I am also going to work on getting into a routine where I get all of my homework done and I actually get a significant amount of sleep each night. But the biggest one yet, is that this year, I will be starting the whole college process! I can not believe it! College is just around the corner! Well, ok, I still have a year and a half, but that isn't very long when you think about it. No, I have no idea yet where I want to go or what I want to do with my life. My goal right now is just to make it through highschool with good grades and get into a decent college. But I am getting to the age where I have to start deciding all these things! It is very exciting, but it's also the scariest thing ever! But speaking of age, that reminds me, MY 17th BIRTHDAY IS TOMORROW!!!! WOOT WOOT!
Now, I don't mean to sound all pathetic and everything, but there is probably more negative than positive that surrounds me right now. First off, I am currently trying to handle insomnia, somniphobia (I know, I'm crazy!), depression, anxiety, vertigo, anemia, and the fact that I am a loner. It is hard to battle all of that at once! To top if off, I had to say goodbye to my sister Breanna, who left yesterday for 5 months in Ghana and a backpacking trip through Europe. She is going to have a marvelous time there and she is going to accomplish so much and I am soooo excited for her, but I am also going to miss her sooo much! I also found out on Tuesday that a friend of the family, Tom Saelid, lost his battle with cancer Monday evening. My heart goes out to their family!!
This has just been a bad week. I'm struggling with school and depression, and just trying to keep up. But I guess that's how life goes right? However, it's not all bad! Let me think....what has happened since March? Well, I am still with my amazing boyfriend Michael, we are still going strong, and we will have been together for 3 years this April! I have now been driving for almost a year, in fact, my one year of driving will be up on February 5th, so I am super excited! 2010 Christmas was awesome! I got so much cool stuff! A new, beautiful scrapbook that is going to be a huge long project of mine, a Wii, some Wii games, a new camera, giftcards, a couple movies, a new coat, and a bunch of other stuff! New Years was kind of layed back this year, but I spent it with Michael and his two little sisters, and that was fun. Umm, I am again taking very challenging classes this year, but I like most of my teachers. What else? Anything else anyone wants to know? And yeah, I know, who wants to read a big long blog post and not see any pictures? Haha well they are coming. I promise! I will add some within the next couple days! Well, I guess that's it for now. I am going to do my best at keeping up with my blog, it's just hard because I am a busy person! But for now, so long! Too-da-loo! Haha Cierra OUT. (American Idol reference!)
