How to Paint Your Face

As BYU was gearing up to play against Florida for the right to get in the Elite Eight, I felt I need to do something crazy and get away with it scot-free. That game was the opportunity. The day before the game, I went to the BYU bookstore and head down to the basement where they have the paint supplies. As I stand in front of the aisle filled with the rainbow variety of acrylic and oil-based paints, I contemplated buying the white one to paint a Y on my face. I summon the store worker over. Here is the following converstation that is 95 percent accurate:

Me: "I need to take the advantage of your knowledge."

Worker: "K."

Me: "Would it be appropriate if I put this paint (the acrylic kind) on my face?"

Worker: "You do not want to do that. It will gives you rashes."

Me: "Mmm, that a bummer. Do you have any kind of paints that are safe to put on my face?"

Worker:"Yes, it called the Face Paint."

He led me to the other aisle that was filled with supplies that was geared toward kids. He handed me a small bottle that has a picture of a clown on it. He then said he help me saved a couple bucks. He also caution me:

"Don't mixed in food dye and put it on your face unless you want a temporary tattoo on your face for at least a week."

I proudly paint a Y on my face and wore it all day. I had to reapply three times. Look pretty awesome right?

This was taken during the last minute of the game hence the weird expression I have on.
