Fryday

Man it's hot today! I've never experienced heat like this before. It's not so much the heat itself (which apparently is only 28oC) but the humidity added to it. When I saw it was sunny, I thought, 'yay, I can make a dent in some research and take in some rays at the same time.' I piled on sun cream, and off I went. I had only been out around twenty minutes when I realised I was bright red. I wasn't sunburned (not even a little tanned) I was just so hot, I looked like I'd spent several hours in the gym. The short time I spent outside also got my freckles a little too excited, so the usual sizable colony has taken up residence across my nose and cheeks a fair bit earlier than usual. Freckles are not an admired attribute in eastern countries. In fact they're fairly frowned upon, as with females with tans, it's seen as a sign of an unhealthy lifestyle of frivolity in the sun. (Although, for me, I think it's just that I've filled my average quota of sun-day's a bit earlier than usual.)
