NZ has really vicious sun rays, one of the worst in the world,we really need to be careful.

Oh yes, I know, and I've been a lot more careful about it.

Also, my aunt was just like me ((Tans easily, except she burned, and never put on sunscreen)) and she develpoed skin cancer, so I'm learning from her mistake.

And, I NEVER "lay out" to tan, or go out tanning, but tan really easily ((Example: wore sunscreen to a parade was out for an hour, but got a HORRIBLE farmers tan, but two weeks later, it's gone , didn't do anything but my normal sports activities))
