Living in Heat

Contrary to what the title of this post suggests, the situation I am currently in is far from desirable....

The Miri heat wave and haze is back after 2 or more years in hibernation. Oh gosh.. earlier at the beginning of the year, it was the never-ending downpour. And now, the days are so so hot while the nights are stuffy and extremely hazy. One can actually sit and watch smoke swirl underneath the glare of the street lamps!!

I suppose this is what we have to endure living in a place with ample land all around. In normal times, it will be lush green. On the other hand, times like this - a simple flick of a burning cigaratte butt will set a whole area going up in flames. Sigh...when will the next rainy season come....
