Well during the summer, i teach sailing five days a week. This means that I'm out in the sun for eight to ten hours a day. One day, I forgot to bring my lip sunscreen and visor, i figured everything would be okay for one day. By the end of the day, my lips were almost black and peeling. The day before I had gotten the piece for my all state audition (Lebedev Concerto in One Movement) in the fall and sun burned lips and all I decided i needed to play it. Well about halfway down the first page, my lips split open and I couldn't play for two weeks. I never go anywhere without my sunscreen now.
