so i knew that i'd be sitting out in the sun for hours and hours today, since i was volunteering at a horse show. did i remember to bring sunscreen? no. i wore a tank top. did i realize during the day that it was really sunny out and i should ask someone to bring me some sunscreen? no.

so now i've got a painful burn and i'm working at the show again tommorrow. i am determined to not forget sunscreen. oh, and the beautiful farmer's tan that i'd been working on all spring & summer is mostly gone now how sad

sunscreen is for babies and old people. do it the old-fashioned way and let your body roast in the hot sun. I'm just lucky I tan easily and don't burn. good luck.

it was our school's yearly 3-day event. it's pretty big, usually. denny emerson was there...he was in the ring that i stewarded on saturday! i was very excited.

i definately had horse envy yesterday during the cross-country, though...everyone looked like they were having so much fun galloping around jumping all these huge fences. i kept myself from getting too jealous by remembering how all of these people pretty much sucked out during the dressage phase

hehe..i know how that is.

I tend to avoid going to horseshows that I'm not in(meaning anything bigger than a schooling show!) because I end up getting really bitter aboue everyone having a horse except me.

BOOOO!

why do so many people like being tan so much? maybe someone can let me know about that one... because i totally don't, at all.

i don't care if i'm tan or pale, just as long as it doesn't dramatically change over the course of my body.

i like to have a little bit of colour...just because i honestly look sick and run down all the time due to my paleness...so when the summer time cones..i try to soak up the rays....plus its relaxing to lay in the sun and go swimming and such..

yeah, sunburns are bad. Yesterday, I was sitting in the sun for about 20 minutes and managed to make my cheeks and forhead a nice shade of pink. Hmph.

As for me, if I had fifty-three minutes to
spend as I liked, I should walk at my leisure toward a spring of fresh water

I burn if I sit in a lighted room too long.

and I never burn evenly. I always get a really messed up burn line. boo!

I've never beent an in my entire life, either. I look much, much better pale.

I'm so white I'm clear. Really. Im not casper white, but you can see my veins on my arms.

And I never lay out to tan, all my tan comes from random events. Like washing my truck, that produced some beautiful tan lines. And my left arm is more tan than my right arm from driving all the time. And my legs are ass-white. Wearing shorts is the source of great teasing from my friends.
