Bike-a-thon! (outfit post/life post.)

Yay for another outfit post! I love doing these! Ok so, I loved this outfit. Neon is my obsession...and I love crop tops. I took all these pictures with  my ipod in the church bathroom after the 25 mile bikathon haha.

FUN FACT: I only wear pink if it is neon. :) (some exceptions, I guess but hardly any. pink=yuck.)

NEON PINK CROP TOP: Thrift Store (less than 25 cents.)

WHITE TANK TOP: Walmart ($4.88)

DENIM SKIRT: Thrift store forever ago ($4??)

PLAID CONVERSE STYLE TENNIS SHOES: Payless ($4.25 with a coupon!!!)

So here is where I talk about the bikathon! It was actually really fun although incredibly painful.

We got to the church at 6:00 am and then we all got into vans/trucks/cars and got to the lake where the bike trail was. We all took a picture and then we were off. The first few miles weren't bad at all, and it was incredibly peaceful. There was a heavy fog over the lake and it was beautiful, and the sun came out while I was riding and that was gorgeous too.

For the first 15 miles or so, I was pretty much riding by myself. 

the lake, well some of it, i was moving while i took this picture haha

Also took this picture while moving haha, isn't that just attractive lol I was so scared I was going to fall while taking the picture lol

One of my friends haha

So around mile 15, well maybe mile 10, my friend Christian started riding with me and we finished it off together. It was nice having someone to talk to while riding, it made the last few miles pass quickly.

We found a turtle!!! (it's peeing....haha)

He was like, "No, I wanna be in the picture too!" So I had to take another one. haha

So at the end, I was EXTREMELY sore and exhausted, but I am not as sore today as I was expecting to be, probably because I ate bananas (YUCK!), took a hot epsom salt bath, and some ibuprofen.

We raised a lot of money from the bikathon, and it was a lot of fun. :) I don't want to do another one though haha

I'm also proud of myself for going all 25 miles!!! :)

Who I Am.

I'm Tabitha.

I'm 17.

My birthday is March 27, 1995.

I have blue eyes.

My hair is ever-changing. Naturally it's a dark blonde/light mousy brown.

I'm 5'1.

I wear a size 7 1/2 shoe.

I'm a lover of life.

I'm a Christian.

I'm a die-hard Laker fan. (basketball in general, I love.)

Cake and ice cream are my weaknesses.

Neon yellow...that's my favorite color.

The ocean is like a part of my soul. I could spend all day playing in the water, digging my toes in the sand, letting the waves carry me to shore. I love it.

I love photographs. My whole life I've loved them.

I like taking pictures.

I love shopping. Any kind of shopping. Clothes, groceries, shoes.

I love writing. I like to take words and make sense of them on paper.

I love my friends and family and I don't tell them enough.

I love sunsets. I love sunrises.

I love taking walks. Especially with people I love.

I'm still a kid, and I always will be one at heart.

I don't like animals. at all.

I like exercise.

I'm ichthiophobic. That's an intense fear of fish.

I like babies. I like little kids. I like junior highers.

Immature is a word boring people use to describe fun people. If that's true, than I'm immature.

I'm myself. That is who I am.

There's more to me than meets the eye.

I'm always thinking, day dreaming, making up fantasies in my head.

I could probably think of more things to write, but for now, that's all I have to say.

Who am I? That is who I am.

Before the end of summer...

I've been seeing little summer bucket lists all over the place lately. I decided to make my own. I don't like summer. In fact, I hate it. I don't mind the no school part, but I hate insanely hot weather and summers are sooooo long here! Well, summer weather at least. The good thing about summer is the next season is Fall--MY ABSOLUTE FAVORITE. I love Fall soooo much I capitalize it. In your face, English!

Well, with summer coming, I decided I want to enjoy it. I will hopefully have A/C and with that, I don't mind summer. Without it, it's like living in the "bad place". Seriously. The house gets HOT.

1. Be able to drive!!! I am 17 years old. In California, you can get your permit when you turn 15 1/2. I was 16 when I got my permit. The next thing to do is go to behind-the-wheel one time. The instructor signs your permit and bam, you can drive with your parents. Take the classes two more times, drive for 50 hours and wait 6 months and you get your license. Easy right? Well no. I've had my permit forever. I finished driving school in October 2010!!! So my goal this summer is to finally be able to drive. I want my license by October. fingers crossed. I am PATIENTLY waiting for $239.00. Praying eBay works out well for me!!

2. Buy a good straightener. I really want to get a good one. One I can use to straighten and curl my hair with. :)


3. Get some kind of job besides eBay. This might not happen.

4. Have money in a college fund. College is close! I have no money, and I know my parents want to pay for a lot of my college, but I still want to do something! Preferably more than $1.00. $100 would be nice.

So that is a really small list of goals, but they're very big goals. (besides the second one) I'm hoping I enjoy this summer!

Who knows, I may think of more things to add to my summer bucket list later. :)

Spirit Week!!

It was spirit week at my school and it was really fun! :) We had two dress up days, Nerd Day and Sports Day. I'm currently uploading the pictures to my family computer. 921 of them. I am obsessed with beach sunsets. Like 500 of those pictures are beach sunsets. The other 421, who knows. lol

So I am going to try to post more. I really love blogging. It's so hard to blog lately since blogger won't work on my own computer. :/ Well, this will do, my posts are gonna be less frequent, although more frequent than as of late.

Ok, so first Nerd Day. I only got one picture! :( It slipped my mind to get pictures with my friends. I am dumb. lol

Me and my lil sis. :)

close up of my face haha

Now for Sport's Day. LAKERS REPRESENT!

We seriously had way too much fun with these pictures. lol We were jumping in the hallway, cracking up, and people were staring. We all know each other though, it's a small school. :)

Stay tuned because I just wrote up three posts that are scheduled to go up in the next few days. :)

of viruses and neon

My laptop got an awful virus. :(( I am working at fixing it but it's a bad one, and I'm not even sure how I got it, since I download NOTHING! It must have been my little siblings...I really don't know.

Besides that...I am able to use my family computer, but it is old and slow and junk. :)

I went to the mall Wednesday and I went to Charlotte Russe. There, in the shoe section were the most beautiful shoes I had ever laid eyes on (slight exaggeration..maybe) INTENSE NEON YELLOW. My favorite color! Well one of them, I also love aqua blue, but oh.my.word.

In person, they are MUCH more intense! My dad loves that color and I was telling him about the shoes...HE IS GOING TO BUY ME THEM!! I SERIOUSLY DIED! lol I don't have shoes that tall! And, there is a sale buy 1 get 1 for 10.50, so I am getting nude ones in the same style. I DIE AGAIN!

MY LIFE....IS AWESOME!! lol It was awesome before the shoes but...

Oh, my friend had an adorable little baby. CUTEST THING EVER!

And I'm going to the beach Saturday. peace out dudes.

Friendship..the perfect blendship

Friends...they're awesome, aren't they.

I thank God for my friends. Two of my closest friends are up there. We may not always get along, but we've got each others backs. I love you girls. You're the bestest. :D

Fotos

I decided to post some photos I had taken back when I had my little Casio Exilim. :) I'm in a photography mood, guys.

For some reason, this is one of my favorite pictures I've ever taken. I'm not sure why, but I really love it. 

I always loved pictures like these. 

One time, I stayed up until sunrise; I had to snap some pictures. It was gorgeous and the dew on the window made it even prettier.

From the same sunrise, only later. God's creation is amazing.

My friend's cat back when she was a tiny kitten. :)

Rose bush. :)

So delicious. Best. donuts. ever. Yummmaaa

Be expecting tons of photography posts coming up!!! I am so excited!!

God is so good.

I love photography. I have one problem though, I don't own a camera. Well, I do, but they're all damaged. I'm really excited because now, I am getting basically my dream camera for so much cheaper than I expected.

What is my dream camera?

This. The Canon 300 ELPh hS. 

It might not be a DSLR, but I really just wanted a point and shoot with good quality and this is it.

It was really expensive though. Too expensive for me anyways. Little by litte, time went on and the price kept getting lower and lower.

Sears had it for 137 and I was really excited. Best Buy has it for only 129.99. 129.99. It is a savings of 100 dollars, and I can get it before I leave for winter camp on the 14th. I am so excited. God is good. God is good.

English assignments. :)

You may know I am into creative writing, or you may not. Either way I am. :) I am taking Grammar English this year, and I much more prefer Creative Writing English, but for juniors, we are required to take Grammar and Creative Writing isn't offered. :/ So, imagine my excitement when I heard today's assignment. :)

Today's assignment was to write a small paragraph using 6 of our 12 vocabulary words. This is the story I wrote.

The boy had a propensity to partake in gluttonous affairs with alacrity and a lack of sagacity. With felicity he would scarf down his food. In the end, his felicity proved to be a fallacy when he realized his gluttony only led to obesity.

Bolded words are vocabulary words. :)

I enjoyed this assignment quite a bit.

When you aren't sure, smile...

Today I still had to go to school. :/ bleh. :)

Lately I am absolutely obsessed with these guys!!! Their voices are pretty much perfect.

Like seriously...amazing. :) And fake robbers are funny too, right?


I might cut my hair--maybe. I'm super scared though because my hair grows sooooo slooowww. I've always wanted long hair too but my hair is just really dead and dry and split, and I think it would be a good idea to cut it. I this is cute.

So I don't know, but that is all for know. :)

Ask Me

I want to do an About Me post soon. I was wondering if any of my wonderful readers had any questions for me that I can include in my post.

Leave a comment with as many questions as you want! :)

Love to you all!

Randomness and Rambles.

Today was a really good day! For Christmas, I got an iPod touch, and it still hasn't arrived. Today we learned that it has been shipped (we purchased it on eBay). Anyways, it ended up being really confusing because the tracking number said it had been confirmed as delivered, but that isn't true, so hopefully everything works out with that.

I got a new Laker jersey today also, which was another Christmas present. It ended up being perfect! My dad was worried he ordered the wrong number, but it ended up being right! I have two now!






I also decided what I want to major in at college. This was a major step (wow, no pun intended! lol). It hit me while I was doing dishes. I want to major in Secondary English Education. I really do not want to be a teacher, no matter how hard everyone else wants me to be. I know I want to work with teens in the ministry someday, and I am good at English. This seemed to be the perfect choice. It would be a teaching major, but I would also have other options since it is an English major and being a high school teacher isn't really bad at all.

I really want to be a wife and mother more than anything, but having an English degree would be something to fall back on. There are other careers I am (more like thought of or was interested in) interested in such as cosmetology, personal fitness trainer, and photography, but it would seem to me that an English major would be the most logical and ethical choice.

Well, thanks for reading wonderful people! I think coming up, I shall do an About Me sort of post. :)
