But I'm still gonna shine!
Summer heat almost blew our heads off
Monday, March 26, 2007The past weekend was like the warmest, most boring weeked to date. I was bummed I didn't get to see Ziggy Marley (coz no one wants to go with me — sad). I just played badminton with my sister.
Yesterday, we played badminton in the morning, then took some zzzs (hehe). Yeah, I didn't shower. And then I woke up at eleven in the morning because it was so hot I'm like being fried alive. Damn summer heat.
So I went straight to the bathroom and stayed there for an hour. Man, if only I could stay there all day, but my sister has to use it too. Tsk. The heat also woke her up. So that makes it our summer survival guide #1: Take a long LONG bath.
#2: Chug water. Lots of it. If somehow you find water difficult to swallow, shoot some OJ. Or water with lemon. Whatever. Drink lots of fluids.
#3: Damn Meralco cut off our electricity at one in the afternoon. Funk Meralco! But instead of shouting Kurintiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii!!!!!, we headed to the nearest Jollibee chain and have some lunch. Well, we can't pass up on desserts. My sister had Mango de Crema while mine is Brownie Sundae.
#4: Chill up some more. Our butts ache after an hour-long sitting at Jollibee, so we went to Mercury Drug. We bought hair conditioner to have an excuse to be there, but we needed one anyway.
Chill chill…..When we got home, it was four in the afternoon and it's still freakin' hot, but there's electricity then. Good enough. We turned on two electric fans and wished we had an aircon in our room. Sigh.
Then chugged some more water.
