I was going to bring up the tan thing, but consequently forgot. Not healthy at all.
I realise there's a good chance I'm going to develop skin cancer actually. Without trying to draw the race card here, I never really paid much attention to the colour of my skin, but my mother is actually very pale for a Sri Lankan, and occasionally gets mistaken for being East-European or Spanish by strangers. In all my baby photos up until I was about 5, I was too, but then I started spending a lot of time outdoors. My tan line at my ankles is so contrasting it scares me a little. Long story short, I'look like a typical Sri Lankan wiht my complexion, but the reality is I've just developed a really dark tan since I moved to Australia.
