The virus that has me perspiring.

by Selva Manogary Arikrishnan

Oh! Why could this virus not have come on a better day; oops I mean it could have been lockdown during the monsoon. We would have had cool nights and comfy to work from home. But nooooo, it is hot and humid the peak of the drought season into summer here in Malaysia. T-shirt sticking to my back I type away, the quiet roar of the fan not doing much in rotating the air. My uncle in Australia asked me to fix an AC. “The cost is too high on the electric bill, furthermore the monsoon season brings cool days". said I.

The plus side, I have not put on anything on my face and skin since quarantine, and my complexion and skin looks good. The humidity is hydrating my skin and giving it a healthy glow. The virus that has me perspiring every day even when I am not gardening has a positive look to the movement control order.
