Acclimating

When I first came here about a year ago it felt miserably hot and humid...everyday...regardless of the hour of the day. The forecast is almost always a high of 88 and low of 75 with a chance of a thunderstorm. Add that to the 85%+ humidity and it makes for a sticky day. Everybody told me that it would take about 6 weeks and I would get used to the temperatures. The problem is...as you probably know...I haven't spent longer than 3 consecutive weeks in Singapore. It makes it hard to get used to the heat especially when a lot of my travel has been to Sydney where it was the winter months and cooler temps. I think I can finally say that I am acclimating. The past few weeks (that I've been in town) have felt pretty normal to me. Sure, I still get hot and sweaty if I'm in the direct sun but a lot of it is because I can't just mosey along and instead walk at a pretty good clip. This morning I left to head for the bus and actually felt a cool (keep in mind that all things are relative to your norm) breeze. It was nice. I doubt I'll ever get to the point that most Singaporeans are at where they don't use air conditioning at all...but at least I'm acclimating!
