It is very likely that you'll enjoy college more.

I will drink to that! College was a fun time. I did way too much studying and got out as soon as I could. I had a plan!

College is but a stop on a journey, not a destination.

Why, when someone sees that you have a sunburn, do they say, "Oh man, you are really red." Then proceed to smack the burn? Really? I'm aware I have a sunburn, I did not need you to smack it to make it more red. Thanks Mom

Ow. Fill up a basin with half white vinegar and half cool water. Get a pile of washcloths. Put them in the vinegar water. Then wring one out slightly and place it somewhere on the burn, then another and another till you are covered with the washcloths. Then take the first one off and put a fresh one on. The first one will feel hot. Put it back in the basin. Keep replacing the hot ones with cool ones. This will pull the heat out of your flesh. This is especially good to do if you feel sick from the burn. Good to get a helper for your back. Do shoulders, arms, chest, legs. I used to do this for my daughter who would often stay too long in the sun. Cools you quickly, feels really good!

Interesting. Sounds a lot less greasy than aloe gel!

The vinegar evaporates really fast, that's what cools you.

Hi Saff! I actually kinda like that nickname, doesn't bother me at all! And yes, I'm back. Hard to stay away but it was good for the soul.
