Oh, look at the sun in the sky. It was burning and shining like a fireball. Will you love a summer like this in your home town? No, not with me. I was walking along the road to have my hair cut this afternoon. it was about 4pm and the sun was high up in the sky. It was truly a hot summer day and the you can just feel the 33 degree heat were attacking your whole being. How would you enjoy such a hot summer day? For me....water...water is the solution.How about you?

I would much rather it be a nice cool breezy day, a bit of heat but nothing too much. Enough to go swimming in and not get cold, but not too hot that you can't stand going outside. The US has had many heat advisories!

Well 33 degrees Celsius is "pleasantly warm" to me. Hot is in the upper forties and fifties! At 55 degrees it gets tiring standing on one foot! That's right, you can't keep your feet on the ground for more than a few seconds because it burns. So you constantly have to take turns standing on one foot at a time. Those temperatures are common in Pakistan.

Water is a LIFE SAVER! I don't know what 33 degrees is (I am assuming celcius? I am too lazy to convert it into Farenheit, which is what I use where I live) but it's been over 100 degrees here in Minnesota this past month - and it's not dry heat it's HUMID HEAT - the worst kind! It's sticky, sweaty, gross, and horrible. I hate it. There's not a lot you can do when it's this hot out. You can sit comfortably in your air conditioned home (if you have one), or you can be like me and sit in front of a fan and drink water in an attempt to cool down. It's not working so good. It's just blowing hot air around. UGH! Can't wait for fall!!!!!!

water - Drink more water
Thank God is raining today and I can feel the cold for a while. We get more than 33 degree here and it gets to 26 degree right now and yes, water is much more important. I think I have them more than 10 glasses~ Forget about the 8 glasses per day rule...Because if the heat I just go drink more than that!(^^)

And they drink more water than us for sure. The crisis in China and other countries are still unresolved due to drought season and its really gives impact to the country economy and the people source of income while the inflation happen in many country when the demand exceeds supply provided. Everything need sacrifice. To develop a country one need to sacrifice something and in our case it goes to the earth who get the impact of all this.It is increasingly out of control right now even though many have already taken steps to prevent it from happen but as long as keep develop we will never stop it.I watched night news and they said that our district will have water rationing next year as the quantity of water we have now can not accommodate our high daily consumption. I already know that long before and have use less water and other supply like power supply at home. It is good if we can save the energy we use daily. Like you said it is better than doing nothing to protect the world.(^^)

Honestly if it were really scorching hot outside, I would just rather stay in my house in the air conditioning. Unless I had a pool, then I might go out and swim in the cool water, but we don't have a pool any more unfortunately so I can't do that any more. It used to be fun to run through the sprinkler on hot days when I was a kid. That is how we cooled off back then.

I have not enjoyed this summer! It has been to darn hot and humid! Especailly the past two weeks! Work has been hell becuase I work in a kitchen and it gets really hot in there! We do have fans but we still sweat our @ss's off! I am not a lover off summer! the older I get the more I hate it! I rather have in the 50's and 60's with a cool breeze all the time! If I could afford it I would move somewhere where the summer is not so dang miserable! I really hate summer!

When it is hot, like it is now, it is hard to stay cool. Going to the movies or to the mall or museum is a good option to stay cool. Anyplace that is air conditioned is a good thing.

An officemate suggested I do water therapy not because of the heat but because my face dries up too often. Yep, summer is here although, here in the Philippines, it's way too hot to handle the heat.

Yah....like for me summer is kinda annoying too. When the sun is burning up and you really feel it up to the inner core of your body then all you can do is to be irritated and easily gets annoy. And what i hate about the most is it ruin my hair and my skin outdoors. During summer days i don't even enjoy on beach since i don't really know how to swim so i end up staying at house or on working place or anywhere with an air conditioning unit. What i like about summer is i can travel a lot and enjoy go to different places.

I live in a tropical country where everyday is summer! We don't have four seasons so I think that's why we don't mind too much we are used to this already. That's why we love ice cream, hitting the beach and we are tanned all year long.

I am living in a tropical country which is 33 degrees is a normal thing and its really a hot summer. What we do during summer is we go to the beach. We do swimming, snorkling and any underwater sports. When we go out we make sure that its always inside the mall much comfortable

I don’t like summer. Because I hate to hot weather. But when there is too hot in summer days then I like to go to Water Park with my friends for enjoying because Water Park is the only way where you can enjoy very much in hot weather. But this is truth that I don’t like hot weather. What about you.

That's the normal temperature here in my country and we always enjoy the sun. MOst of the people here go to resorts and beaches, we have lots of it here and it's one of the reasons why tourist flocked anytime of the year. In the provinces, children enjoy flying kites and catching butterflies and dragonflies in the rice fields while the adults enjoy mountain climbing and trekking. Oh you can do so much during those season here.
