Global Warming... Global Warning..

Since the day i left Singapore and came back to KK, the weather here has been hot like hell. Just when I thought Singapore is considerably closer to the Equator than KK, it turns out that KK felt hell lot more hot. 'How hot?' you might ask. From the temperature readings, KK is a well 2~4 degrees Celsius higher than Singapore, and thats a big deal! While the hot weather could be frustrating enough, the sunshine here is definitely skin killing and cancer causing. If I were a turkey, I'd describe my situation now as being deeped into a big bowl of boiling hot oil (the hot weather) and the entire bowl being put into a microwave oven set at full blast (the radiation from the sunlight). There's definitely no other better ways to describe the heat I'm undergoing now. I might just die.. In fact, i have been driving around these 3 days in my car and my skin has noticebly turned black! WTF.. I spent 2 whole semesters avoiding the sun and now I'm being thrown back into square 1 just for a few hours driving?! I'm gonna wear a jacket to protect my delicate skin starting tomorrow, or else my white tofu like skin might as well become oil tofu..

All these.. thanks to the effect of cglobal warming.. There aint a single pathetic piece of cloud in the sky for days.. There hasnt been a single drop of rain in weeks when u need it.. And when once in a while u see some dark clouds started forming, its just stupid pity cloud trying to act like a rain cloud. In fact, i think my skin releases more moisture to the air by perspiration than depending on the unreliable rain cloud wannabe.. If this continues on for few more days, I might just change my blog URL to www.steamlessfumes.blogspot.com.

That's not just it, apparently the hectic weather did not only pissed me off, even the trees up on the hills can take no more of this. One of the trees went haywire and lit itself up, turning into flames, which resulted in a homicide up the hillside. The trees burning massacre started sometime around noon and the number of casualtrees continue to grow as I'm typing now.. Its quite a beautiful scene for me though, since my house is not located anywhere near the forest fire, the photos i manage to take was quite beautiful. It loks as if Beverly Hills area had turned Kundasang, with the mist covering the hills and mountains. You can even have a glance at the famous Mount Kinabalu on the second photo. Looks pretty cold in the picture if u can just ignore the glowing fire at the right end of the photo.

But when you come to think about it, why is the fire still burning now since it has already started in the afternoon? What happened to our tax money spent on the fire department? Is this fire too small to be just ignored or maybe the firemen did do their job by praying to their god for rain so they wont need to leave their comfy fire house? wtf.. Malaysia's really a nice place with its own unique culture and attitude.. With this kind of slacking lifestyle, only Malaysia have the ability to survive among all the countries in the world.

Sigh.. I think i gotta go apply heaps of lotion to my hands and neck or else the next thing that catches fire is my tofu skin..

Is this a global warming, or more like a global warning?

Yo bro, you're not the only one having that problem haha.

Here in miri.... with the ABUNDANT grassland and trees and wild forest all around curtin and desa senadin, + weeks of sun without a drop of rain, the whole greenery just turned into smoke and dust over the night.

The result? Smoked flavoured laundry, ash covered tables and seats in shops, and what more? HOTTER weather! Cool isn't it?
