I'm pretty near-sighted, I have to wear contacts everyday just to see!

Me too! It is also known as myopia or short-sightedness.

I always get them confused, myopia means you can see things up close and far away things are blurry, right?

Yes that is correct. Distant objects would appear blurry and objects close up appear normal.
