Make this country a cooler place.. (wala bang init dyan?? pa aircon naman ohh)

It was good shot but you don't have an idea how
hot it is
Whew! When I'm writing this post I'm really sweating all over. Fanning with my hands doesn’t work anymore. Help! Philippines is getting hotter each year! To the fact that some like it because they wanna go swimming or sun bathing but for me, this weather is too much! I rather want the rainy days than battling against this scorching heat with my poor umbrella. I can’t wait for the month of June to come.

How I wish Philippines is like Russia. I think Russia is the coldest country in the world being being closer to the north pole (whoa, Santa lives here!). In there, you won’t need for an aircon because the climate itself can provide you a cooler environment but be sure you’re fully covered or else, you’re next to Frosty (the snow man).

Anyways, as what I’ve observed, when the weather gets its highest TEMPERature, some people seem to be ill-TEMPERed too. I admit I’m one of those complaining but not to the extent of getting hysterical. Yesterday, when we were walking under the heat (without umbrellas), it was like I'm bathing with my sweat and it was as if my skin burned. It was soooo hot (about 34°C) I can’t imagine we are having this temperature nowadays. I thought the place is like hell! I was shocked that the hottest city in the Philippines, Tuguegarao had already reached the temperature of 37°C (the normal body temp). Gracious for the people who live there.

Sometimes, I blame our irresponsible attitude towards proper disposal of garbages because if these collection of trashes are just regular, we will not be forced to burn it. Forest burning is one too. We are experiencing CLIMATE CHANGE. For now, we are suffering what others have done just for the sake of their selfish motives. Pity for those individuals whose jobs are outdoors like construction workers, vendors, and drivers because they are prone to heat stroke.

Technology brings us a combined Fan
and umbrella named Fanbrella
My tip? Well, aside from water as the thirst quencher, we have energy drinks (such as gatorade, alkaline water...COBRA!) to replenish your body by supplying the ions needed. Bringing umbrella at all times and wearing sunglasses to protect the eyes are a must. For women, I suggest you shouldn’t use strong beauty regiments (like astringents) and instead, protect your fair skin by using lotions (or sunblock) having SPF40. For men, always bring towel or hanky to wipe the sweat on your face. If possible, bring an extra shirt to change after a sweaty work.

I’ve been wanting to have a snow here but sad to say we’re a tropical country and that we should adapt to changes our environment has to undergo. All people can feel it. My mother also thinks we are now being punished by God, but as the world gets hotter than what we’ve expected, I hope people in politics doesn’t get ill-tempered with the trashes they are throwing against their opponents. (Uh-huh)

For those people who can’t get their temper low, I pray to God..... MAKE THIS COUNTRY A COOLER PLACE for them. A hot place with chill people is IN this summer, promise! Those ill people have no room for now. They’ll be just ruining one’s good trip. If I were you, just relax and don’t let the hot weather affect your good mood:)) You might complain again when rainy season comes.3

Peace yo, folks!
