Something Achieved

Hey Everyone!

I just wanted to let everyone know that yesterday i was not a total lazy bum! 
AHHH!
i know right?

I actually did something that 
many wouldn't do on a rainy icky 
day well.... 
actually lots love it so much,
but me, the girl whose hair 
gets frizzy with just one drop of 
rain, doesn't do!

I ran a 5k!
Did everyone hear that?!?!?

Yes!! i know! 
and it only took... well 36 minutes(;

Yes, a 70 year old man did beat me, but let me tell you he was sprinting for his life out there!
and i was just trying to hike up the huge mountains that seemed
to be appearing out of no where.

I have to say if you have never ran one you have never felt so proud/thirsty/tired in your life;)
ok well for a 16 year old girl!(: I mean

I did the race with my daddy he is a good runner, so he actually was practically walking while i was really trying.

Now this isn't my first race I actually have done an 8k but lets just say little kids beat me in that race. It definitely didn't give me any satisfaction of winning;) or beating anyone...
but don't get me wrong 
I Liked doing that race!
Me and My friends pinked out the race
with hot pink E-V-E-R-Y T-H-I-N-G.
it was more of the lets see how long 5 miles can actually take us kind of race...
while my brother 
had finished the whole 8k we were still lingering on our
3rd mile;)
My brother made sure to rub
that in a little too well 
after we finally went through the
finish line...
Uhhh Little Brothers!


We were definitely the winners...
well at least in our own heads!

BUT... I Know we definitely had winning outfits right?!?!

(:

hehe..
first tip if your preparing for a race...
actually train.. do not just
wing it because let me tell you
I thought i could do the 5k no problem because of my experience with the 
8k. 
Yeah Sure. Definitely NOT.
second make sure you dress for the weather
Unlike my 8k experience that had crisp yet pretty blue skied weather my 5k was 
a rain filled cold icky grey skied day that didn't seem to 
help my unpreparedness.
Thinking I would be just fine with shorts and a cut off sleeve shirt wasn't the best plan when 
it started down pouring on
me and those thin clothes
didn't hold any heat WHATSOEVER.
third when you are coming to the finish line smile really big and pretend that the race was the easiest thing you have ever done;) 
Unlike me who looked like they were
either about to 
die of thirst
or about to die from running.
Lets just say I didn't follow the third 
tip at all! 
So better luck with your next race(:

I'd love to hear about your either successful or totally lame running experience
Comment below!


Well that's all for now(:

Fun Embarrassment


How to totally have a great time while embarrassing yourself on your blog(:


step 1:
Take Silly Pictures of yourself... whether on a computer on your phone or on a camera!
Make sure you do your silliest faces you can!(:
Don't hold back and try not to look all Professional because you can tell i definitely was having too much fun to ever look serious!
step 2:
Now take the wierdest pictures and make a blog post about them!
(: Show your personality and then if people can't guess your personality you'll probably have to HINT THEM on about what you were trying to portray in your pictures!
step 3:
Explain to your readers your photos(:


The Explanation for my Photos:
Photo 1:
This is my fishy face (: 
Photo 2: 
This is the laughing so hard that you can hardly open your eyes face It is one of my most used faces... (; I don't usually just meet someone and do this face or the fishy face i think i would immediately creep them out;)so you have to get to know me to actually see this one! or well...
I guess if your reading my blog(: Then you practically already know me huh(:
Photo 3:
This is my success face... Like the ones i use in class when i had just guessed the answer on the test and actually to my surprise it was right!
Photo 4:
This is my I have no idea what your saying so I am going to be in hard thought face(: This is the face i would normally do in History Class when i am really trying to tell my teacher that i have no idea what the answer is... and pleading with him that he shouldn't call on me  to answer in front of the class(: because he will definitely get a Ummm... uhhh...well kind of answer!


So that is my explanation for my pictures!(:
I have to say this is a really fun way to just show people you in a simple and easy and amazingly fun way!
I would definitely say to try doing this type of blog post at least once... just for the fun of it!
