Stupid things/happenings

Stupid things you can do / have happen to you during winter

1) Drink cold water

2) Eat ice cream

3) Open the window

4) Bath in cold water late at night

5) Wear shorts, T-shirts, slippers and wander out into the streets

6) Walk about bare footed on non carpeted floor

7) Use a flimsy piece of cloth as a blanket

8) Sleep under the window when it's opened

9) Sleep half naked

10) Spoil the only heater in the room

11) Have the water heater die on you

.................................................................

What a winter this is becoming... First, the portable heater short-circuited when i accidentally dropped it on the floor. Now the water heater gave up on me.

OMG!!!

I mean: OMG!!!!!!

I'm fine with the heater shorting out; i can take the cold. But the water heater shorting out too?!? You've gotta be kidding. That's my life line in this winter... Where can i get my source of warmth from??? Most importantly... How do i bath if the water temperature is sub 10 degrees? (I'm no Iceman)

Stupid heater shorted out on thursday; now's friday, coming saturday. Nearly 3 days! OMG!

'Eww..' These are the thought's i would imagine coming from those who think i didn't bath for the couple of days.

Well, what i can say is...

You're wrong.


I've been bathing for the past few days that the water heater shorted out...
Now i can add this to my resumé: 'Ability to bath in freezing cold water in winter'

How'bout that? Cool eh?

Think you can do it??? (I think i nearly suffered from hypothemia when i did that, lol) Trust me, it wasn't a very pleasant experience at all. For those who think they're 'macho' enough to do it, here's what you can do. Bath in an air-conditioned room of around 14 degrees, using water that has been chilled from the fridge. That'll be 'similar' to the conditions i went through.
(Disclaimer: only people from equatorial countries can participate)

Anyway here's something of a checklist. (Quite nonsensical.. Please don't believe in it)


SIGNS THAT YOUR BODY FUNCTIONS ARE GOING WRONG:

1) Coldness has a burning effect on your body

2) You wash your hands under freezing water and think "it's warm???"

3) Your skin starts to age noticeably / get rougher

4) You get cuts without knowing when or how it got there

5) Your hands and legs feel "swollen and numb"


Hehe.. A small list, it may or may not be true.
Anyway, hope you all have a good weekend

Cheerios and Cya
