Celeste's Blogs!

So as this year comes off to an end, as you know, this will be my last blog. And honestly, I’m slightly sad about it. Weird to say but I actually enjoyed opening myself up and letting everyone see the real me.

Junior year is coming to an end and I swear I remember entering high school just yesterday. This year and the past years have gone by incredibly fast. I’ve lost friends along the way, some who I didn’t wish to lose and some who I’m glad I lost but I’ve also gained many great friends. Great friends who I know I’ll always be friends with and that always make me laugh and who I’m always having a good time with. These friends are literally a blessing because they let me join them in the middle of the year when I had no one else to hang out with and I’m thankful for them.

This year by far has been the best academically. The past years I’ve settled with mostly B’s and a C but this year I had all A’s except for a B. I’m more than proud of myself because I did all that even while getting 9 hours of sleep everyday – weird right?

I’m not sure if it’s only me but if I’m honest, I’m literally terrified about becoming a senior and then heading off to college. I know senior year will be hectic and extremely busy, especially since I’ll be taking my first AP class (kind of scared for that as well) but it’s for my most favorite subject; psychology. The brain is something that interests me so much. Crazy to think that this entire blog was all typed because my little brain thought of it.

Anyways, as this year comes to an end, I can only think of all the homework I’ll be receiving as a senior. All the sleepless nights (hopefully there’s none) or all the things that will be keeping me busy to prepare me for the upcoming years of college. The years where I’ll be transitioning into an adult, who’ll probably have 23643895 dogs, where I’ll go from living with my parents to into my own apartment, paying for my own bills.

But that’s not until a year from now, so I won’t have to be worrying about it just yet. Until then, I’ll keep enjoying my 9 hour sleep schedule. Although, I might extend it to 10 hours.

Sleep is good for the soul.

A person who affected my life a lot was Leilani. We hadn’t always been as close as we are now, I mean, we were friends in elementary school and we’ve been going to school for all 13 years and actually didn’t start talking until 4th grade – when she used to bully me.

Over the years we’ve talked every now and then but it wasn’t until we walked into art class our junior year. We didn’t same at the same table, I sat right in front of her table and I was friends with her best friend so I’d move to their table every now and then. And before we knew it, we’re best friends.

When we first began talking, Lei thought I was stuck-up and that I was quiet. I don’t blame her, I have a resting b-face. Although, it has gotten better over time. But she was also the same way, except she was too shy to start up the conversation with me.

It has been 10 months since we became friends and since then, our friendship has grown so much. In other words, she’s “peanut butter to my jelly”, besties for the resties – her words exactly. We trust each other entirely and tell each other everything. I know that no matter what, she won’t tell people my business.

One of our best memories, according to Lei, was when she used to bully me, jk no. It’s when we are having a good time laughing at everything but also laughing at nothing.

To Lei, our friendship has impacted her life by me being helpful and being someone she can trust, someone who will always be there for her, who’ll always be fun to hang out with.

We both agreed on that our friendship in the future will be much stronger and better. We wouldn’t only be hanging out just us two but, with our own families hanging out as well.

Hey, it´s me again. And honestly, I’m not exactly sure how to do this blog or how to start it but I’ll give it a go.

As a person, obviously I need sleep. Probably one of the only normal teenagers in high school that actually goes to sleep before 9:30pm and trust me, that’s late for me. When I tell my friends I go to sleep around that time, they always all have the same reaction, “omg that’s so early!” and then when they tell me what time they go to sleep at, which for most people is after 12am. I’m the one saying it’s so late.

One of the most important need/motives is God and my family. I wasn’t always into God. I mean I believed in Him, but I didn’t really have a close relationship with Him. It wasn’t until I went to a retreat this year for three days. Honestly, it was eye opening and such a life changer. It made me realize that no matter what the situation, God will always be the answer. He is a forgiving father and loves unconditionally. Ever since I started getting closer to Him, I’ve been so much happier and I feel like He is truly turning my life around.

I started reading the bible and I found this good verse,

“I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me.”

It’s currently my favorite because in all honesty, God does strengthen us and with Him anything is possible.

Something that always motivates me, is my family. I mean don’t get me wrong, my family isn’t perfect. And like any other family, mine has problems every now and then. But something that never changes, is that they always support me no matter what. Especially my mom, she’s literally my best friend and I love her for that. I love that I can tell her everything.

I’m baaaaacccckkkk! And as I said on my first blog, there’s so much more to know about me and here we are, getting deep and personal. Pretty crazy how in the entire world, no one’s personality is the same as others. They can be similar to others but they’re not the same. Everyone’s different, everyone’s unique. At first I thought that the only way to fit in was to be like others, do what others do and wear what others wear. In other words be a follower. But as I got more mature and got older, things changed. Small events in my life helped shape me into the person I am today. I’ve learned to not care what others think, because in reality, people are always going to have opinions no matter what.

As a person, I think I’m outgoing but there’s also situations where I get shy, like when we have to perform something in front of the class. Whether it’s something big or something small, I always freak out and get nervous.

One of my traits as my personality that I have is caring. I care for everyone. We don’t even have to be friends or even know each other, we can even be old friends but I’ll still be worried about if you are happy and if you’re okay. Usually when I see someone that is sad, my psychiatrist side of me starts to show and I’ll give you my best advice; whether it’s boy problems, friend, or happiness problems, I’ll always try to help. I can be extremely mad at you but if you come to me and ask me for advice, I’ll give it to you.

I may seem like a very mean person but trust me I’m not. I’m a fun person to be around, I’m also funny and an optimistic person. But not everyone is happy 100% of the time. There’s times where my happiness falls and I’m sure you’ll notice. But I try not to let it happen too often.

A strong trait I have is confidence. It’s something not everyone is blessed with because being confident in yourself is a good feeling and also a rare thing to have. It’s quite sad honestly, the fact that not all girls/women are confident in themselves. But I also didn’t always have confidence in myself. I used to hate everything about me. From being underweight, having too dark of skin to never being enough and feeling worthless. I’ve felt like this for a while actually. Up until I realized that no one deserves to be treated badly or shame their self. We all deserve to feel like we’re something. Because we are. And being self-conscious isn’t a great feeling. I know and felt it myself. And I’m sure most of you girls have as well. But next time you feel self-conscious, take some time to realize how poppin’ you really are and how you’re slayin’.

Well that’s it for this blog. So until next time, my friennddss (probably in a few days because Mrs. Browning is going to make us do blog #3)

Have a great day! xoxo

I’m not exactly sure how to start this or what to say. But my name is Celeste, I’m currently 16, attending Monache High. For the past three years, I’ve been 5’3, LITERALLY have NOT grown an inch taller. Three years in high school and just this semester I FINALLY hit 100 pounds. If I say so myself, I consider myself pretty hilarious and a great person. Although I’m quite nice, I can also be very mean and full of attitude. I don’t let people walk all over me or boss me around; I mean, other than my mom. 

My entire life I’ve heard the same few words, “you’re so skinny” and many more sentences like that. I probably eat more than most people, especially for someone as thin as me. I’m literally always seen with food in my hand or on my desk (except after I finish it.) My favorite food is Mexican food; tortas and tacos mostly but any Mexican food is delicious.

At this point in high school, I’m just waiting for it to end. Seems like the last few months of my junior year are going by extremely slow. But at the same time I don’t really want it to end. I want to stay in HS so that I won’t have to grow up or pay bills. But we all know we have to and it’s a part of life. But trust me when they say “high school years are the best years of your life and they go by fast” because they honestly do. I still remember when I first came to high school, thinking it was almost like HSM or maybe like Mean Girls. But it’s nothing close to either of them. HS isn’t all that bad, other than waking up so early and having a lot of homework and not enough time in a day to be able to achieve everything you want but HS also isn’t great. I’ve spent countless hours thinking of dropping out and all the different scenarios I would have to go through because of it. But, I’d rather stick to being able to go to college and support my family after I get a stable job and spoil my kids and my mom. Oh and don’t forget about the dogs, you always have to spoil them too. They honestly make life 100% better.

After not knowing what to write, looks like I finally put something together. There’s so much more you should know about me but that’s for another blog. So until the next blog, I have to go and get back to my show The Fosters.
