I apologize for not writing sooner!!! I was very busy last week. I ventured out to the Valley of the Sun for a graduation and managed to take some pictures of cacti while I was there. ( My experimental film is almost up and I will post pics soon when I get them developed!)
Anywho... I got a new bike! Well....it's my second new bike... My first one I got, the rim was bent and I had to take it back and I was so bummed out. So I went on a quest to find a new one and I just couldn't fall in love with all the bikes I came across. I went to store, after store, after store... and I just couldn't find "The One." Silly, I know, but I am a silly girl who has connections with things that are normally insignificant to other people. I managed to come across Alabaster. She is all white with pink rims and black handle bars. I saw her at Holland's and I just couldn't get her out of my mind. I saw another cute bike that was similar to her, but with designs and all, but I kept coming back to Alabaster. She didn't have fenders, so when I decided to get her, I gave her her beautiful fenders. She is my white horse I ride around the island instead of taking the bus now, and I love her.
I wanted to customize her originally when I got her, but when I rode her for the first time last week, I changed my mind on that. I love her the way she is and I don't want to ruin her with sandpaper and mess up whatever design I would try to paint on her.
Again, a lot of people will say, "It's just a bike." Well, yes she is, but she's my bike. I guess the feeling you get when you purchase a new car is the feeling you can relate to me loving my bike. She is something that is truly mine and I am really happy I have her. ^_^
And with the weather starting to warm up ( FINALLY!), I plan on riding Alabaster everywhere!!!
What was your first purchase that made you really happy?
