27 Thoughts That Run Through Your Head While Sun Tanning In Your Yard

Tis the season for sun bathing! If you're anything like me then I'm sure you love nothing more than being nice and tan during the summer months. Tanning salons get so expensive, so why not take advantage of the natural UV powers of the sun? Pictures make it look so glamorous, but truth is, there's nothing glamorous about puddles of sweat and bugs. Each summer day we face the never ending battle of wanting to be tan but not wanting to lay out in the heat for hours. Laying out in your yard always sounds like a good idea at first but throughout that tanning session, you're bound to have some or most of these thoughts!


1. What a beautiful day, perfect to lay out!

...So you thought


2. 88 degrees and sunny, not bad

You thought without considering humidity and lack of a breeze


3. That bathing suit is so cute, but it's going to give me the worst tan lines

They're tacky.


4. *Sees tanning oil with SPF 8*

Nope thats way too high, I'll never tan with that on!


5. I'm gonna' be healthy today

*brings fruit outside*


6. Almost forgot to angle my chair at the perfect angle under the sun

Good thing I caught that, otherwise I probably wouldn't tan


7. I missed this!

The winter is way to long

8. I wish I could do this everyday, all day!

Ahh! So relaxing


9. I should probably check my phone now

It's an addiction.


10. I guess I can tan my back while I'm on Instagram

Wouldn't want weird tan lines.


11. Ugh but now I want the front of me more tan, that's what people see more of!

I guess I'll just deal with the consequences.


12. I'm getting hungry

This banana is not guna cut it.


13. I wish their was a way I could tan both sides at once

*Googles it*


14. "OK I NEED THIS THING!"

Because direct sunlight isn't good enough?


15. OK cloud you're annoying

Not like UV rays don't travel through clouds or anything.


16. Oh wait, I can see my phone now

Again, the addiction is real.


17. Cloud, come back!

The shade was nice while it lasted.


18. I'm so hot!

It's literally the Sahara out here.


19. This bug needs to go

Idk if you're just a fly, you're not tanning with me!


20. I wish we had a pool

Or at least friends that actually liked me.


21. This butt sweat needs to go!

I'm literally laying in a puddle.


22. I want chips

Being healthy is over rated, and chips are just way to good.


23. Must. Stay. Out. Longer.

Perseverance is key.


24. I don't even have any tan lines yet

I hope they show up later.


25. OK, I guess I can flip one more time

I'm guna look so uneven.


26. I'm going in after this song

Or maybe during.


27. Maybe I'll try this again tomorrow

Or the next day...

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
