You Melt My Heart With Peanut-Butter!

Have you met my friend, Hope?
She's a pretty cool chicka! I knew her in Yokosuka, for about half a year when we first moved there. Then she decided she didn't like me anymore, so she moved to Hawaii. (Haha, just kidding :P) Well, I hadn't seen her since she moved, which was about two years ago, until our visit to Hawaii! Look, here's us!


I got to spend a lot of time with her and her sister, Jenna, while we were in Hawaii. We had a couple of sleepovers and did some epic boogy-boarding together. One of the times she slept over at our place, we thought we would be random and try to tan everything but a heart shape on our backs. The plan was brilliant! We would sit out on the beach and let the sun do all the work. But, we had one little problem. How were we gonna keep the heart-shaped paper stuck to our backs? We tried spit. We tried sun screen. We were almost gonna try gum, but we weren't that desperate. So, we looked around. Bananas... Cherries... knives... PEANUT BUTTER!!!

Amazing, something so thick, our backs won't absorb it, and we could wash it off when we were done! So, Hope and I immediately started taking the peanut butter and smothered it on each others backs, pasting the heart on top. We looked great :] (Regrettably, I did not take pictures because I thought that the end result would be awesome enough) So we laid out in the sun.

30 minutes went by... nothing yet. 45 minutes... still nothing. At about 50 minutes, we both realized our backs were getting incredibly sticky. We looked at each others backs, and the peanut butter was melting!!! EPIC FAIL! Both of us ran towards the water as fast as we could to wash off the peanut butter before it could ruin our bathing suits.

After recovering inside the cabin, Hope and Jenna had to go home before we could make a second attempt to reverse-tan our backs.

BUT, We tried again. Haha. Only this time, with Zinc. Unfortunately, we weren't out there long enough for it to work. But yeah. This is now an on-going joke between Hope and I :]

The End! xD
