Made me laugh...

Watch "Los Angeles Overreacts to Cold Temperatures" on YouTube

This is funny and accurate. :)) haha

Lost things and Cold

Hello one and all.

Lately I have not been very satisfied with my blog; it's been boring and filled with all kinds of improper English.

I have nothing to write about and my camera charger is NO WHERE to be found. My iPod is also missing, so all I have to take pictures with is my Android phone and the quality just isn't that great.

I'm praying that I find both my camera charger and my iPod. I am going to Arizona in just 11 days and I really really want to take pictures. After I come back from my Arizona trip, I will finally having something to blog about! :) I am so excited for the trip! Well maybe not for the actual trip part. I hate long drives. I don't know how I'll handle the drive to Kentucky in March! I'm just excited to see my friends and to be in a different place.

My real license came in the mail on Saturday. It feels more official to have the real thing in my hand. My first reaction to my picture was "Wow, I am tan!" especially compared to right now. I'm pale as...something pale haha. The picture was taken in June, so I had been in the sun a lot. I miss being tan!

pale me with my new license :)

And I feel like I have to blog about the weather....if you've been following my blog long you would notice I talk about the weather a lot. 9 times out of 10 I'm talking about the horrible heat, but today I'm not.

We are having winter. It has been so cold I actually need a jacket during the day time and I can see my breath in the morning and sometimes at night. It's so cold we have to turn the heater on in the car. Oh, and there has been frost in the grass and on cars and rooftops. If it would rain it would snow, but of course it doesn't rain. It never works out that way.

I say that I prefer the cold, and over the heat YES A MILLION TIMES YES but I really don't know if I could handle such cold weather for months at a time, and I know it gets colder than this in other places. I don't know how those people do it.

I feel like I might like some 80 degree weather right now. I can't believe I just said that. Normally I'm praying for 54 degrees and clouds, but I honestly miss the warm weather. Maybe 72 degreees would be nice. It's not cold and it isn't hot, it's just nice. Well it won't be long before that weather is here and then I'll be back to wishing for cold again. I guess I'm never weather satisfied...well I wouldn't say never.

Winter sunsets are gorgeous though. Even with a bad camera.

And the other day I painted my nails like this and I really liked the results. The color is BRIGHT neon pink. I only like pink if it is BRIIIGHTT neon pink like this one. You can't tell in the picture but in real life it is crazy bright haha.

Next blog post will probably be about Arizona. See you then :)

This girl can drive...alone!

Ok, so the moment I had been waiting for FOREVER finally came on January 3, 2013. I, Tabitha, finally got my license!!! :))))))) I can't tell you how excited I am that I passed the first time.

This was the sunrise on the morning of my test it was gorgeous! So much more beautiful in person.

So early in the morning, my mom and I headed over to the dreaded DMV and I took my license test! I was so nervous and my examiner had such a thick accent I could hardly understand him and he was so grumpy it was unbelievable. He didn't smile once. haha I ended up passing and oh my word I was so happy! I barely passed though. The number a person can miss is 15 and I missed 14. I think if my examiner wasn't so grumpy I would've missed less!

my outfit haha

Me driving with my doggy pal.

I love having my license and driving alone. Seriously. LOVE.

My little sister took this picture. I look so angry though! haha

My temporary license. I blurred out all my personal information so no one can murder me! lol #notparanoid

I can't wait for my actual license to get here. It should only be a week and a half more!

And these next pictures are random...most are from New Years.

I stayed home on New Years this year and so my sister and I had a "crazy party" we put on a TON of makeup and fancy dresses and super high heels. It was really fun and a great way to spend my new years. :)

So much. makeup. It took to wipes to get it all off.

AFTER the makeup faded into my eyes making them red and irritated. I took a  picture because...just look at me. haha

So my new years was pretty good. :)

And if there is something you should know about me. I mess with makeup. a lot. So here are two more pictures of me with a terrible amount of makeup. Oh and a fake lip ring. I'm like an actress...but in pictures.

Terrible...I know haha

AND because I am random, here is a picture of my bracelets that I wear everyday.

Cross--Rue 21

<3 you all!

2012/2013

(wrote this on January 2, 2013)

I honestly cannot wrap my mind around the fact that it is 2013. 2012 flew by so so fast. Seriously, where in the world does time go?

I cannot say that 2012 was a bad year, but it certainly wasn't the best. I went through a lot of tough times with myself. I made it through though, stronger and probably a better person then before I went through that.

2012 had some good things happen too, of course. The biggest for me I think would be finally being able to drive. I wanted to get my license during 2012 and I was supposed to but things happened and I had to reschedule. My test is tomorrow though eek!!

In 2012, I made some amazing new friends. The thing about these friends is that I didn't meet them at church or my tiny little private school.  I met them in my apartment complex and online and that for me was something new. :)

In 2012, I learned more about myself. The good, the bad, everything. While 2012 wasn't my favorite year ever, and I won't look back on it and think "wow, that was an amazing year!" I can look back on it and use it to benefit not only myself but hopefully others in the future.

2013 scares me. It's going to be a year of change for me. For one, I am graduating this year...that is insane! So with graduating comes a ton of new things and challenges and exciting adventures. I'm going to be turning 18 in just a few months, and wow 18 just sounds too old and I do not feel like an adult! I think 18 is technically a teen still right? I do not want to be an adult!

I also have so much to look forward to this year. First, hopefully getting my license tomorrow! Then I'm headed to Arizona this month to attend a conference and see some friends! :) then, next month I have winter camp up in the snowy mountains!

In March, my family is roadtripping to Kentucky as we might be moving there. I'll be with my best friend checking out a college out there and attending a youth conference again. I am also turning 18 in March.

Then in April, I have a day planned to go to my favorite city ever, Los Angeles. When I was 16, we celebrated my birthday there with my mom and my two best friends, and so to celebrate my 18th we are doing a repeat of the day. I am seriously so excited. I don't live far away from LA at all, like an hour if traffic is good (which it neevveerr is) but I don't go there enough, so I am ecstatic about this! (Venice Beach here I come!!)

Soon after comes graduation and my first summer as an adult. Then I have an unclear future ahead of me.

2013 is going to be a year of change and I don't feel ready for it. But I say bring it on, '13.

Wishing everyone an amazing year!!!
