whenever I ride my bike my wheels, hits the brakes. Should I tempt it to fix it my self or should I take it to a bike shop.

since you are a begginer you should take it to the bike shop where you bought the bike and ask them to fix the wheel. The wheel is probably bent due to a crash or if you have been riding a lot.

BTW: I also live in Arcadia maybe we can go for a ride together sometimes!

A lot of my friends and I live in the area, and we have a weekly ride that is located in Pasadena.

We meet across the street from Pasadena City College on Sunday nights at 8 to 8:30pm. PM me for more details if you are interested.

Welcome to Bike Forums, Jin! Hoping you get that problem fixed soon. Have you checked out the mechanics section?
