Haze Reflections
So the skies today were C.L.E.A.R. (cues: heavenly music)
Even though the NEA app on my phone clearly said the 3 hour-PSI was in the “Unhealthy” range (PSI > 100), there were still many joggers and kids playing around at the void decks. I suppose everyone in the neighbourhood made their own judgement to see how untainted the skies were today. And they just had to be outdoors, frolicking in the sun.
After skipping home from work, soaking up whatever’s left of the setting sun, I too, went for a jog!! :‘) the air was probably too pristine for me that my lungs weren’t used to it…. haha I kid. I am just one heck of a fat blob right now. Not used to such intensity and also currently battling a very weak willpower status…
(That’s me. With, “all day dining”, they said)
So anyway, here’s my take on the haze situation the past couple of weeks:
Indonesia has the dumbest ministers who say the darnest things
We take so many things for granted, such as having clear, breathable air. So the next time when the Sun is out blazing away, we should remember those bleak and hazy moments of our lives, and figure out which sucks greater balls………. I would choose Mr. Sunshine and Sweat over Haze and Dry Throat anytime
I literally have nothing to do on the weekends when I cannot go outdoors (Is my life that sad?)
These N95 masks have contributed to the pimple map on my face (especially with regards to the nose bridge and cheeks)
You should never wear makeup when attempting to use these N95 masks…….. the aftermath does not justify throwing away $2.50 per mask, yet it’s just totally unhygienic to see blusher and/or foundation stains
Spectacles should also be forbidden while wearing the N95 masks unless you wanna look like a serial rapist
The soft-bone of your ears will literally fold into half and hurt the next couple of hours after wearing that N95 mask
The haze has more universal topics and is applicable to everyone, compared to our recent GE 2015. Ah tiongs to Ah nehs to Pinoys, all can understand us too. Indonesians as well!
I should stop wasting toilet paper, minimize printing, as well as slowly cut out Palm Oil so that these burners will burn themselves after becoming bankrupt……..
Lastly, everyone who require visibility or those who have been exposed to such horrendous breathing conditions while working, I salute you
Come back soon, my sunny (& clear) Singapore!
