Too Hot for September.

So when did September in Ohio decide to have 98 degree weather?

The past couple days my roommate and I have been suffering from extreme sweating and sneezing  due to the fact that :

1. We have no air conditioning in our ancient house. 
2. We are on the second floor and we all know hot air rises. 
3. My fan is not strong enough to even make my room slightly cool. 
4. My allergies are ridiculous because the hot weather is making the pollen count severe. 

I really hope that the next few days will be cooler (70s would be perfect). I never thought living conditions could be so miserable until we moved into our house. The house itself is ok, but our windows are open at all times and I still don't feel this helps our situation at all. 

Whenever I take a shower I still feel sticky and gross. The steam in the bathroom adds a nice touch to this stickiness. Why is there so much steam? Well, in our bathroom we have a fan (except it's crappy) and the bathroom size itself is insanely small. You can brush your teeth and use the restroom at the same time. Yes, I know. Awkward. 

So, I would advise everyone before you purchase a house make sure you have air conditioning. Especially those with severe allergies like me. I can't stop sneezing and my eyes water profusely every night. This is not fun to wake up to each morning. You can't taste your food and you're miserable in your classes all day. So, for those college students considering buying/renting a house in the future remember one thing. Air conditioning will make you and your roommates lives so much better. My roommate and I had to find out the hard way.

  1. I don't live off campus, but my car has no air conditioning, and I have oily skin. This is not an amazing combination. My internship this summer was about a 45-60min drive both ways. Very long uncomfortable rides. I went to Lima this weekend and felt gross after getting back home. The heat this summer is unbearable. I'm actually impatiently counting down to the time when it gets cooler in ada!
