Assignment 25- Kaylyn Torkelson

The sun.
It's the scourge of my summer experiences.

I went to the pool for maybe an hour on Sunday. I wore sunscreen. And I came home to a bright red face and bright red shoulders.

I can't survive twenty minutes outside without gaining some "colour" but that colour is almost always red. Bright, tomato/lobster red. With peeling too. It's outrageous really; I can go outside if its cloudy all day and still come inside red.

No one in my family gets as red as I do, so I spend a lot of my time inside alone. That just exacerbates the paleness problem, as staying inside just makes me more susceptible to the harshness of the suns rays.

You can say that I'm more of a winter  or fall person than a summer person. Mostly because they're the least dangerous to my face. (And I get teased less often during those months about being pale.)

Oh well.
