10 Scares, 100 Discoveries: Scare 2 – Body Heat

For me, 2011 is about a year of change, fun and new experiences. With that in mind, I decided to create my own adventure, 1 Year, 10 Projects, 100 Discoveries. This post is part of that project. You can see all 10 Scares here and the entire project here. Enjoy the experiences, I sure am!

Admittedly, this was a silly fear, but one nonetheless – Indoor tanning.

I was feeling extra pasty white and indoor tanning has been something I’ve always wanted to try. So, what better day then today? Honestly, the paying for the tan took longer than the tan itself. The funny part? What I was scared of doesn’t even happen! For whatever reason, I always envisioned these big beds where you had to close the lid on yourself. You know, a bit like laying in a coffin. I also always worried about the timer not going off at the right time and getting stuck in the coffin like box until I got seriously sunburned! Turns out both fears couldn’t be further from the truth.

Six minutes later,  the result of the experience was complete :) Although, I’ll have to wait a few more days to really see if indoor tanning makes my Irish skin a little tanner. And yes, my fear of indoor tanning has been abated.
