15 Thoughts Pale Girls Have When They Are Forever Sunburnt Instead Of Getting A Golden Glow

I'm not saying that it is specific and I can't speak for anyone else but what I have experienced... as a pale white girl in her early 20's that is nicknamed "Home Hermit" by her parents and a "recluse" by her sisters.
