Nature, I Appreciate You, But This Heat Is Too Much—LOH#312

If there's ever a season of the year I could remove, I won't hesitate to remove the heat period. The heat period happens to be a season I don't like nor enjoy, even though I understand that every season has its own benefits/purpose. Still, I'd always wonder why the heat is different and would always want to deal with us; that season won't even consider that we're going through so much already in this country; it will still come with its own.

During the heat period, you can't bathe and decide to cream your body; you would have been sweating even before you're done dressing up. I can't count how many times I'd take a shower in a day during the heat period; even on normal days, I'd shower up to like twice or thrice, but during the heat period, you will always see me in the bathroom every minute. Another thing that makes that heat period uncomfortable is that you cannot sleep peacefully/comfortably, and our electricity here is bad, so you can't even depend on your fan. Except if you have a solar fan, you would have to keep it very close to you or make use of a hand fan. And that is if that tan itself isn't blowing heat.

You know the worst part? It is that the heat does not even care if you're comfortable or not; you would still have to go about your work and daily activities, and most times it does affect our moods, making us lazy and making it seem as if a task is more stressful than it has always been. Now, I'm hearing that El Nino is around the corner and that it will be stronger than it has ever been. That news alone has had me worried; I've even gone online to do some research about it and what we should be expecting, and seriously, it is nothing to write home about. It just means that the heat we're experiencing now, or the ones we've been experiencing and complaining of, is nothing compared to that which is coming, and if that's it, then how do we cope? How do we go about things...?

Well, for me, I would keep doing as I've always done, just that I would increase things too, meaning I would be taking frequent baths, I will drink plenty of water and always stay hydrated, and I would also make sure to always stay in a well-ventilated area and always put on light clothing, while also doing my best not to do things or go out when the sun is at its brightest/strongest/hottest. And the above are things I would also encourage us all to do: take frequent baths, drink lots of water, and even at night keep water close to your bed.

Not as if I don't appreciate nature and how seasons tend to change; of course I do, it is for a reason/purpose, but then I would always choose a cool day over a scorching one....
