i've given up on trying to get a tan.
my albinism has always remained a good friend to me -
- it has helped me score infinite shades of red in the least opportune moments, enabled the sun to scorch any place that i've neglected to put sunscreen on (fyi sunburn-staches are NOT cute) and caused a dreadful g.7 track&field 2nd degree sunburn incident (yes...my mom still made me go to school with two huge scabs beneath my eyes).
THEREFORE: ima be responsible this summer and embrace the irish roots.
SUNSCREEN IS THE NEW BLACK.

PLUS: my 35-year old self will appreciate it.
