#denni fallon

As I step out of my car and into the hissing heat of the July day, I inhale a long, steady breath of salty air. I make my way across the warm sand and enjoy the feeling of it between my toes. As always, my Canon camera hangs around my neck, and my omnipresent notepad resides in my beach bag. I look around and give the beach a cursory scan in an attempt to find Colt or Uncle Mal in the mass of people, but to no avail. I'd been super busy with the Tribune the past week, so I haven't gotten a chance to hang out with Colt for a while--I'm excited to spend the day in the sun with him.

Hey, I text to Colt after pulling out my phone, I'm at the beach. Where are you? 

As I wait for his reply, the scorching sun continues to beat down on my neck and back. I'm nearly breaking a sweat, but without Colt or anyone else I know around, I'm too self-conscious to walk around in just a bathing suit. I instead pace down to the ocean and wade in to my calves. The water is cool, but it feels good on my already-warm skin. I stand there for a few minutes before remembering the bottle of sunscreen I have in my bag. I'm naturally pale and fry rather quickly, so unless I would like to be morbidly uncomfortable tomorrow at work, I figure I should probably apply some.

Five minutes later, sun screen applied, Colt still hasn't responded. The message was read, according to my phone, but he didn't reply.

Aesthetics:

Describe yourself as you see yourself.

Uh, well... I don't really like how I look most of the time... I'm 5'3", so I'm pretty short... I'm not particularly thin, but I guess I'm not fat, either. Um, I have kind of chubby/rosy cheeks, and I have purple streaks in my hair. I'm also pretty pale.

Well, according to Colt, I'm "absolutely gorgeous," though I don't know how much I believe that. I've gotten told I have a nice smile, though!

What is your favorite body feature?

I, uh... This is hard. I guess I like my hair most of the time. The purple streaks make it more exciting.

How physically fit are you? 

Uh, like, not at all. I've never been athletic, and running really takes it out of me. I mean, there's a reason I joined so many clubs. I'm so not athletic.
