The Heat is On!!!

Help help help!!! It's been freaking hot the past few days. It's only spring and the temperature's like 35 to 37 degrees everyday. Going out is such a chore and just walking around the school makes me sweat and pant. Usually I don't purposely walk under the shade but now, it's a must if I want to avoid skin cancer! The morning and afternoon sun is scorching hot and literally burns into your skin. Hiding at home doesn't work either. Staying on the top floor has its disadvantages after all. There are no tall trees to shade us from the sun and my room just happens to face the afternoon sun. So even with my fan going at full blast, the room is just filled with hot air circulating. I can't sleep with any blanket now and don't even talk about wearing my pyjamas. Sleeping directly under the fan can still make me sweat so I think if the weather gets any hotter (and it probably will), I may have to sleep naked...hahahhaah!!! I have been drinking cold water all the time, stocked up on ice cubes and feasting on ice cream just to keep cool. Oh yeah, I have started bathing with cool water and doing this twice a day. However, the extra showers are drying up my skin and hair. Oh my god, I really need aircon now! Back home it is hot all year round but at least you could derive some comfort by turning on the aircon. Here, I have nothing but a lousy fan that blows hot air at me. My dad asked me to find out about aircon rentals but I wasn't too keen because I don't want to incur extra costs. But if the temperature goes up any more (like how Jeff was telling us it might go as high as 50 degrees), I think the aircon might just save my life!

Bart Bag!!! It's actually a shopping bag but it's so nice I couldn't help buying it. It's so much nicer than the ordinary green and blue ones.
