About a month ago my friend Hope and I went to the beach! It was so nice and relaxing we ended up staying for like 5 hours! She wore sun block...and I didn't. Needless to say, I got a really bad sun burn...my first one this year! It hurt so bad...I couldn't sleep for 2 nights!

2 days after that incident, some dark spots appeared on my right hand...at first I thought they were bruises, but they didn't hurt...it just looked like my normal skin except that it was darker in color.  I thought they would disappear on its on...but after 2 weeks they were still there. I showed it to a few ppl and some said it could be skin cancer...some said its weird...and I was secretly scared it was skin cancer but wouldn't admit it!!

Its been a month now and the spots are still there! It doesn't hurt, it hasn't gotten bigger, smaller....so then I finally decided to go see a Dermatologist!

It sucked...I paid $50 copay and I got to see the doctor for literally 2minutes. the funny thing was, she barely looked at it...she seemed more interested on my birthmark on my arm! (that was the first thing she looked at)

The Doc just said that it looks like its hyperpigmentation...which in human talk means that the skin is just discolored...she went on and said mumbo jumbo about citrus and sun exposure...but I'm sure I didn't spill any juices on me that week!!! lol....so she gave me a sample cream to bleach it and a prescription, but they told me its expensive and it so happens that my insurance doesn't cover it!!

Overall...no skin cancer...and I came straight home...put on sun block and swam in the pool and tanned!!!!

Ladies, how do you guys feel about getting hit on?!

For me, the experience is always flattering....but then I find it very creepy...b/c I always get the weird dudes!!

Today, Yer and I went grocery shopping and as we strolled around the store throwing random things into our cart; we went to the register. After we piled our food stuff on the conveyor, we waited b/c the lady had problems w/her debit card machine....a guy (hispanic, middle age, scubby looking) comes up behind me to pile his things on the conveyor...I saw him from my peripherals, but decided to ignore him. Before I know it, he "accidently" brushed up against me and was like, "sorry!"

So, I'm like, "Its ok."

So, then he expertly begins small talk w/me and Yer...and at first just trivial stuff...yer was wearing a jacket even though it was like 70 degrees...so he's joking w/her about the weather and stuff.....and she was rude to him! So, then we stop talking for a bit....(the register is still having problems)...and then he starts asking me if I go to USF and i'm like no....and then the compliments fly left to right as he starts to tell me that I look like I'm a college student and that I must have my masters degree or something (this is where I do my little girly laugh)....and I'm like no, I'm just working....so then he sticks his hand out and introduces himself, "I'm RJ"...."Hi, I'm Xay'....he asks if I work nearby and I tell him no, and then he asks if I come her often and I tell him every now and then.....(register is still broke) so then he's telling me about his work and what he does (welding)...and for some reason he starts telling me about how I should go work where he works?!! And he's asking me what i do and then he was almost trying to get me to go work w/him!!!????

It was getting weird...so I'm like trying to turn my back to him and not ask him any questions....I was just trying to be polite and answer his questions.....I thought he would get the hint...finally our stuff is being scanned! (Thank Goodness!!!) And after I paid...I thought to myself, should I say bye to him?!!....after I got my change back, RJ goes to me..."See you next week!" All I could do was smile and tried to get out as fast as I can w/out seeming too run away from him!!

I'm definatley not going there again on Sunday evenings...he had told me that he shops there on Sundays!!!

Honestly, I hate being approached by guys because I'm always caught off guard.....and although I'm flattered and all....sorry, but its just creepy!! LOL

I know you Ladies have got your many experiences as well!! Do share them!!!

I've been waiting and waiting to post something really great here, but now that Xanga wants to close my account, I have to put just this lame post up!

I do promise to think of something really cool to post though!

I hope that everyone is doing GREAT! I've been good, trying to work on my tan this summer....lol...and I'm trying to find a part time summer job....so if anyone knows one, let me know!
