Well, I am not a person who slaps on the sunscreen every time I am going to be in the sun for a long time. When I burn, it turns into a tan, so I purposly let myself burn so I get tan- pretty stupid! I learned last weekend- I have a 3rd degree burn on my chest. It was the most amount of pain I have felt in a long time, and it does not look pretty- especially the blisters. I was in the sun for 8 hours straight on a boat with no sunscreen. Now I am starting to put a little on. I don't want to get skin cancer, but I will probably get it anways, especially where my bad burn is.

This is my burn:



And it was 10 times worse than that a couple days ago...this will be here for a loooooooooooooooooooooong time. I learned my lesson!
