First Time Fake-Baking..


Have you ever seen Final Destination 4? I sure hope you remember the scene where the two girls completely fry themselves in tanning beds because they were locked in. Okay, so that couldn't really happen, well maybe it could, but that's besides the point. Even before seeing that movie, I've always been against tanning. I'm an athlete and I'm outside all the time anyways, so I've never really felt the need to indulge in the light bulb experience. But the other day I had a minor meltdown about how I will look at prom.
Playing tennis gives you the worst tan lines in the world. First there is the infamous one, on the feet, because we wear tennis shoes when we play. Then we have a shorts/skirt tan line on the thighs. Then depending on what kind of dress/top you wear, there's always a racerback line or in our case this year, a turtle-neck (not really) line because our dress is conservatively cut on the top. This creates problems especially since the weather hasn't been as nice as it should be. There hasn't been many opportunities to soak up the rays/even out tan lines so I figured what is the easiest and quickest fix? That's right, I'm giving in.
I promised myself that I'm not going to get addicted. I don't want to be some of those people that like to go every other day. Ewwww. I'm looking into going a few-five times just to even out and look my best for prom. I'm pretty scared because I've never gone, but I'm hoping to bring some friends along to make sure that Final Destination 4 will not happen to me.
