Sun care tips

Knowing myself, I will be out in the sun this summer, so I guess some of you are too. Therefore, despite the fact that I want you to have fun, we also have to keep it safe. This includes sun care.

1. Sunscreen
Put on sunscreen. Please, we do not want to get leathery skin when we grow up, nor do we want to have skin cancer. So please, wear sunscreen, it is good for your skin and body. Some of my favorites include Watermans and the Hawaiian Tropic brands, since they last so long.

2. Hydration
Ever heard of too much sun? This happens to me all the time, and I believe that I got too much sun at Lake Conroe. So, hydrate your skin after you have been in the sun all day. Drinking water will help. Also, I like to use the Hawaiian Tropic Silk Hydration After Sun Lotion after a long day in the sun.

3. Lip balm
Skip the lip gloss, and turn to your new friend lip balm. I got burned on my lips (which is not fun), so please wear lip balm because your lips might burn and it will peel.

4. Aloe Vera
Sunburns happen, so to help with the pain and heal faster, use aloe Vera. It will help with the sting and peeling.

Stay safe and have fun.

It's all in you and me

Depending on what type of person you are and how you perceive things, you will look at situations different than I would, and that is perfectly perfect because agreements do not thrive perfection. Disagreements, that are constructive, make things perfect by ridding all of the jagged ends.

Things I just noticed

Coming back from Lake Conroe made me realize something, I live in my bikinis in the summer. I am not even kidding. I literally live in my bikinis, everyday all day. Why do say these things? It is because I have more bikinis more than underwear. That just shows how my life style is. But, I am not ashamed of it. From visiting Destin to going different beaches all around, I cannot help but notice that I live in my bikinis. I sound crazy, but in the summertime I literally do.

The reason why I have so many bikinis is because every year I get a new one, just to freshen everything up a bit. But, although I have grown taller, I have not grown that much wider. Therefore, my bathing suit size have not changed since the 6th grade, and to add onto that, I get swimwear as a birthday gift since it is during the summer.

I have no shame in saying all these things because it is true, and I cannot deny it.

On a Getaway

I get to live in my bikini, tank tops, and cutoff shorts, and I cannot be any happier. This trip is just getting me so excited to go to Destin.

This post is just for us, just to see how am I doing.

Weekend Trip

I am off to Lake Conroe this weekend, and I am super excited, even though the waves will be less that desirable there- I mean choppy waters, really- but all in all, I am so psyched.

I do not understand

In every school, no matter how great or seemingly "terrible," has white collar crimes. When I first heard this term, I have no idea what it meant and felt ignorant for asking my sister about, which in turn, of course, she knows about it. White collar crime, as defined by me, is when a person screws other people in order to be ahead, usually in an unfair way. You might probably think "I do not understand," "Life is unfair, get over it, kid," or "I know what you are talking about."

An example of white collar crime (in the most innocent way possible) is when a kid asks another kid to test out a bridge to see if it would break. The kid asking knows that the bridge will break, so the other kid ends up falling, while the original kid remains safe and continues on. I think that is a white collar crime, but I can be wrong. I think that is what it is.

Why do I bring this up? I have no idea. It came to my mind when I was finishing up my kaleidoscope picture, and I wonder why people do it. In my opinion, it takes more work to cheat, rather than learning and do the test on our own. I sound mean, but that is what I think. There is a group of students in my grade who are so competitive and obnoxious with school, and even though they consider themselves friends with one another, one of the insiders of the group told me that they do not even like each other and pretend to be each others' friends. I feel pity for them, not only do they have to put up with the thought of the other person being better, but also, they do not like each other. I feel lucky to have a group of people who surround me and support me and actually genuinely like me.

I want you to have great friends and a circle of people you can be proud to call your friends. A good friend can have fights with you because it is usually done out of good, never trying to bring you down. Trust me, no one should have to have fake friends.

Now, with fairness. People say that life is unfair and that is the way it has always been. Even though I know and accept the fact that life is unfair, why does have to be like that? We can make life fair if we wanted to. So, what is holding us back?

Quincenera and Rube Goldberg

I have the most random stuff coming at me at one time. Tomorrow, I have to go and support my lovely friend at her quincenera, and I said have to, not because she is my friend, but because I bought a dress. I will go to the quincenera anyway.

Another thing that is weird is my Rube Goldberg project. Yep, the huge chain reaction. Of course, I will finish it soon.

Yeah, just wanted to update about my life. It is a really short post, but I have to do some school work and ready myself for future comings.
