Well, it’s the Weather! Yes, it is indeed the weather. It is sort of against us Singaporeans and almost everyone living in Singapore. Singapore has a series of weather patterns that usually fall into this two categories - blistering hot and sunny or windy and rainy. Seldom do we have anything in between these two extremes. When the weather is hot, it is very hot. I mean the sunny is like shining unmercilessly on you and if you will easily get sunburnt if you are not careful. Plus, it is very humid in Singapore, so you will start to sweat and feel sticky and dirty all the time. One of the worst feeling is that. Not to mention, if you sweat to much, you will start to stink and people around you will die like flies.

How about the other extreme? Yes, I am talking about raining. In Singapore, it rains very often. About for 1 month of so in Februray, we have been getting rain everyday. It is like someone is trying to flood Singapore and wash the people away. Well, in this case, you will be drenched and even with umbrellas, your shoes will still get wet. It usually rains very heavily and there is no escape from it, except if you drive and your parking area is sheltered. For people like me who takes public transport, we will almost certainly get drenched. After that, we will all fall sick and some even die.

So that’s it. Why we can’t enjoy life in Singapore. If you think of going to the beach and suntanning, it will rain! No kidding, I tried a few times myself and it rained. So everyone flocks to the shopping malls or stay at home and rot. If you are thinking of going to the park and have a leisurely walk, it will respond simply by providing you with the blistering sun shining on you continously and giving you a big headache or it can just make you blind. Then you flock to the air-conditioned shopping malls as well. Truly, that’s life in Singapore and you will keep doing that until you die.
