So that

"I'll spend some time on the beach so that I can get my skin tanned"

Hi, is it okay to use the so that to combine two clauses that both refer to the same subject?

Thank you

Guyper is it okay to use the so that to combine two clauses that both refer to the same subject? Yes, but in that case you can say it more succinctly with an infinitive. I'll spend some time on the beach to get my skin tanned.
