Working on a tan with the Campus Ninja
Dear Ninja,
As the year comes to a swift end, I have planned to reap the benefits of the fruits of my parents’ labor. I fully intend on mooching off of their cash, sleeping in until the late afternoon, and loafing on the couch.
However, my parents have other plans for me.
They want me to get a summer job. They tell me that it’s good for my work ethic, and could benefit me in the future. I wonder, oh great Ninja, does your Drunken Master make you get a summer job?
Sincerely,
Bumming in Berns
Dear Bumming,
When it comes to a summer job, my clan master gives all ninja two choices. We can get a regular summer job to increase our stealth among the general population and acquire funds, or go through a summer long session of Spartan training. I opted for the training one time and will never make that mistake again. It was the most miserable few months of my entire existence.
Normally, I like to work at stores like GameStop or Books-a-Million. If I have no other option, I am not above working at a fast food restaurant or grocery store. In the end, it really comes down to your personal choice; try to work where you think you would enjoy it.
Dear Ninja
As a ninja in training, I practice my stealth abilities during the summer to stay limber for the year. I find that leaping tree to tree is both refreshing and exhilarating. However, I still enjoy doing average human activities, such as go to the beach and sunbathe.
Unfortunately, the sun turns me a horrible shade of red anytime I stay outside longer than 5 minutes. This atrocious color radiates through my ninja robes, making me more visible to enemies. I do not want to give up my summer sunny day activities, but the retched sunburn is unbearable. How do ninja enjoy the summer weather and avoid the harmful foe known as UV overexposure?
Sincerely,
Sunburnt in Sanford
Dear Sunburnt,
To begin I would like to commend you for starting along the path of Ninjutsu Mastery. Never give up and keep striving to become a full fledged ninja!
Now to address your problem, it seems that you lack the proper chakra control to avoid getting sunburned. You must meditate and feel the flow of your life force and control its movement carefully. The best way is to have a constant flow of chakra seeping out of your pores, as this allows the harmful UV rays to bounce harmlessly off the invisible barrier you have created. Also, applying a sunscreen of at least SPF 30 is extremely beneficial if you are trying to avoid bad sunburns.
