The five stages of a sunburn:
- Denial- “It’s not that bad….right? I put on sunscreen…a few hours ago….”
- Anger. At anyone. “Why didn’t you remind me to put on sunscreen?!” “Why can’t I just get a tan???”
- Bargaining. “It will tan. It will be fine.” “If I wear cool tone clothes this week no one will notice.”
- The sad part. “Oh my god it’s not even going to tan its just going to peel”. “From now on long sleeves this summer it is.”
- Acceptance. “I messed up. I would say I am going to learn from this experience, but I will probably fry my skin next weekend again.”
