If only that will work and cool the earth.. π
Seriously, it hv been so super duper whooper burger HOT lately. I’m like sweating every single second, sweating when I’m sleep, sweating when I’m awake, sweating when I sit under the fan, sweating when I’m at the cafe, even sweating when I at the shopping mall… I think i even sweat when I bath LOL
I heard that this heat will continue for another 2-3 months. @@ Gosh, hopefully I won’t beΒ barbecued by the heat before it ends XD
Anyone hv any tips on how to stay cool without an air-conditioner?

This time around, I hate living in equator climate. I have to shower at least 4 times a day to clean my sweaty body.

The usage of 2 fans does not help (still make me sweat like a pig), go soak yourself in the icy cold shower for few times a day π

That’s too much @@
the more u bath the more water u consume…not helping mother nature. using a/c makes it worst cause a/c generates heat outside to cool you inside.
use what is already available instead such as going for a swim(swimming pool already there whether ur using it or not). another long term alternative would be having plants in your home. for night time, avoid having plants in your room where u sleep. they do consume oxygen at night, except for cactus. they are good to have around as they produce do oxygen at night.
use less lights. uses less power and generates less heat. you can try LED alternative which generates almost no heat. Try using some solar powered items such as fans and stuff. small things like these do help. drive less if possible. Although our public transport is not something to be THAT proud off, but it’s still better than some other countries.
for more immediate cooling effect for yourself…slice a piece of cucumber and put in your forehead.
cheapest method…sweat. after you sweat you’ll actually feel cooler. so don’t bother stopping your body from sweating, you’ll actually heat up even more. so if you do sweat just put yourself in front of a breeze. you’ll cool down very fast.
if your apartment has evening sun or even morning sun, close all windows and blinds before you head out. when u come home, open all the windows and curtains. allow mother nature’s natural a/c to cool your place. turn off all heat source ie. TV, laptop etc. don’t leave it on if you’re not using. those generate a lot of heat.
You can also soak your feet in some cool water. this will reduce your body heat too.
another alternative, take some empty bottles lying around, fill it with water and put into your freezer. voila you just made yourself some portable cooling pads. wrap them in a towel and hug them or put it near u etc.

Not good for health ler
WUahahah LOL. so funny. i thought its ur mom who got fever. total change in plot.
my suggestion will be, think this place as in winter and where thick clothing. then u will sweat a lot but a few hours later u will feel a bit cold since the sweat will cold down ur body temperature. π
Reply:
Good idea .. but hope i don’t faint when i’m wearing the thick clothing
it actually “wear” not “where”. typo there. sorry2
zephy upstairs has stated a lot of good methods.
Here’s my share
That cooling pad you brought, paste it on the back of your neck.
I just bought a reusable cooling pad where I put on my bed and I sleep on it. cools my back.
I’ve tried putting the cooling pad on the back of my leg, above my heel. it make me feel quite cold. and I didn’t dare to put it there for too long.
Reply:
Certainly did.
Too much is not good for the body too right
I don’t have air-cond too.. Resorted to something called Minyak Kapak.. lol
