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...

New year, new semester, not the same old thing. This semester will be a semester to redeem all the mistakes made in the previous five months.

1. I will wake up (sorta) on time for class.

Let's face it, last semester you woke up with enough time to brush your teeth and get to class and even then you were about 10 minutes late and rollin' in with some pretty unfortunate bed head. This semester we will set our alarms, wake up with time to get ready, and get to class on time!

And so it begins.

1. Walk in motivated and ready to rock

Camping out at the library is not for the faint of heart. You need to go in as a warrior. You usually have brought supplies (laptop, chargers, and textbooks) and sustenance (water, snacks, and blanket/sweatpants) since the battle will be for an undetermined length of time. Perhaps it is one assignment or perhaps it's four. You are motivated and prepared; you don’t doubt the assignment(s) will take time, but you know it couldn’t be that long.

December... it's full of finals, due dates, Mariah Carey, and the holidays. It's the worst time of the year, but the best because after finals, you get to not think about classes for a month and catch up on all the sleep you lost throughout the semester. But what's worse than finals week is the last week of classes, when all the due dates you've put off can no longer be put off anymore.
