summer fatigue

I got the following bits from The Japan Times newspaper.

"Imagine being in a sauna for a few hours. Then imagine getting out of it and walking straight into a giant freezer for another few hours. Do this several times a day and continue the routine for a couple of months. Some people say that's what spending summer in Japan is like.

Japan's summer months are notoriously hot and muggy, which can lead to a range of health problems. Natsubate (summer fatigue) leaves people feeling tired, lethargic and/or sleep-deprived. Many people lose their appetite and become irritated, while others suffer digestive problems such as diarrhea, constipation and/or giddiness."

Oh yeah, I am experiencing all these symptoms. (Beware people! Super Cosmo gets superbly irritated!) Summer fatigue plus stress coming from multiple sources (a.k.a. the project that i am currently working on), it takes "heroic" efforts just being able to flash a smile and to be a good and jolly person during this season.

here is someone who wanna kiss summer goodbye!

---> I hope I'll lose my appetite... I've noticed that my appetite is at its peak on summers. So, I'm "healthier" on summers :d
