Trapped

Living in Hong Kong during the summer months are absolutely awful. It's too hot to go outside and the apartments are so small that you feel trapped, at least I feel that way. I hate it. 

I can't even go outside for a wall with Ella without nearly fainting of overheating after just a few minutes. And yes, I am unusually sensitive to heat. Going for a walk is supposed to be easy, it's not easy in Hong Kong during summer. I'm miserable... 

We had to give up one of our lovely rabbits for adoption, so Liam is currently living at our vet office. The office is a leisurely 20 mins walk from home, but in this heat it becomes impossible to get there without sweat soaked through my clothes and a pounding headache from overheating so I won't do it. It really sucks. 

People tell me; walk around in one of the many malls! Sure that's a good idea and obviously the only way right now, but then it becomes a project, taking public transportation, planning for diaper changes, feeding, and usually end up buying something I didn't really need etc. Just leaving from home for a walk doesn't require much planning since I'll be close to home, and there aren't much for sale in the parks. 

And you know, sometimes it's nice to go outside, I feel bad for Ella for not being able to take her to the park, see trees and flowers... but that just won't happen in the summer in Hong Kong. 

I had to vent, I wish things were different... Sigh...
