Farmer's Tan

I really like having a tan! I like when my body is brown, I think it looks better. When I go to the beach or pool I like wearing a swimsuit and having a tan all over, rather than only on my arms and face. I don't like having the rest of my body white, like it never gets sun. When I have a brown tan I don't have to worry about getting sunburn as much as when my body is white. If you think of it my body will get white, while my arms stay brown because I wear short sleeve shirts. Now when I go to the pool my chest and legs will be white as a blank paper. YUCK! Then I will get sunburned and then when my skin heals it will start turning brown. I go through this cycle every summer. Once I went to Hawaii for 5 days (for $300) and the first day I got a really bad sunburn.

So bad that I couldn't lay down to sleep, I had to sleep sitting in a chair, my butt didn't get burned since I was wearing swim trunks. The rest of my time in Hawaii wasn't so enjoyable because I was burned so bad. When I got home my skin peeled and it was brown under the red sunburn. I don't want that to happen every year. Maybe I will go to a tanning place because I don't want to be so white when I go out into the sun the first time. Wish me luck on getting rid of my farmer's tan before I go swimming in the bright sun.
