My hometown is a hilly basin surrounded by mountains, and although there are often typhoon warnings, there are few direct strikes, and at most they pass by, bringing us coolness again and again. However, the 2009 "Morakot" was an exception, which had a great impact on the transit area, and even my father's factory was not spared, and the warehouse on the first floor was flooded. So, for us, a typhoon is like a big aunt, afraid that she will come, but also afraid that she will not come.

On days when there are no typhoons, control of the weather returns to the hands of the subtropical high, and the heat is unbearable. During the day we had to hide in the air-conditioned room, watch TV and play games. In the evening, the temperature finally changes from "hot" to "hot". The local tyrants are naturally still air-conditioned rooms, and those who are reluctant to pay for electricity will find a cool and ventilated place to make an appointment with neighbors and friends to drink tea, or directly turn on the air conditioning in the chess and card room to play mahjong. I have my own way of cooling off, which is to rub the air conditioner. Shopping malls, supermarkets, Xinhua bookstores...... These are the places I often go to after dinner. If some classmates are invited, then they will occasionally go to the Internet café for "low-cost" entertainment.

However, the most popular way to cool off is swimming. Although I grew up in a water town, I didn't know how to swim, and at most I only paddled two times in frog pose. As for how far I can swim, it all depends on how long I can hold my breath. When I was at Imperial College, there was a swimming pool in the south area of the school, and swimming was also an elective part of physical education classes. However, those of us who are far away in the West End are not very willing to go far away, and we can't grab this kind of popular course. But after all, the swimming pool is also a place with "welfare", and we must think of a way to take a look. In the afternoon, when there were no classes and the weather was relatively hot, me, Da Biao, Lin Ye and Eric would go to the swimming pool to feast their eyes. For this purpose, I also bought a pair of swimming goggles with a prescription. Among us, only Da Biao's squad leader can swim, and he can swim freely in deep water several times. However, we are very contemptuous of this kind of "unprofessional" behavior. We "bathe" in the shallow water and then wait for the opportunity to complete the "main task". I thought we were obscene enough, but I just scanned the audience with my eyes, watched Bai Huahua's slender thighs dangling in front of my eyes, and silently wrote down all kinds of swimsuits and its hostess. And those who are more obscene are pretending to be pigs and eating tigers, pretending not to swim in the shallow waters, and then "accidentally" crashing into the target that has been aimed at for a close encounter......

After all, Jiangnan is a water town, rivers and lakes, streams and springs, and where there are people, there is water. Having said that, if you can, you should still go to the swimming pool, where there are professional lifeguards, after all, the people who drown in swimming in the news are basically wild swimmers like us.

In addition to the high risk factor of wild swimming, its own charm is incomparable to that of the swimming pool. First of all, there are the number of people, the swimming pool is so big in total, and the people of the whole city are huddled together to taste each other's sweat, urine, foundation, blood, and fart...... It's very harmonious when you think about it. And wild swimming is not subject to this restriction, all kinds of ponds decompose the flow of people, and the flowing water does not rot, at least psychologically. Secondly, the scenery in the wild must be incomparable to the swimming pool, surrounded by green mountains, curling smoke, playing in the green water, looking up and looking up the sky. In addition to that, and most importantly, don't ask for money. Although there are many places to swim in the wild, there will still be a phenomenon of crowding, as the so-called people are afraid of being famous, pigs are afraid of being strong, and a lot of people is a good place.

It was another hot day, although the TV station reported a maximum temperature of 40 °C, but it was almost 10 o'clock that no one could stay outside, and I was awakened alive. Since it's not a weekend, I'm alone at home, and I need to solve lunch by myself. I simply made a noodle and the whole person was like taking a bath. However, it is also thanks to the sweat on the body, which makes the electric fan blowing hot air cool. It may be that I was poor and afraid in my previous life, unless I had to do it as a last resort, otherwise I would be reluctant to turn on the air conditioner when I was alone at home, and I felt that I was burning money, but today is the time of "last resort". After eating, I stayed up until half past 12 and watched TV with a fan, and I had a little comfort in my heart: if you turn on the air conditioner for a while, you can save electricity for a while. When I was finally able to convince myself, I immediately went into my parents' room and turned on the air conditioner and computer......

In the company of school, games, empire, and QQ, 4 hours passed quickly, and my dad called. As usual, my dad got me ready to go swimming and asked me to wait for him and my mom at home. In order not to make dumplings with everyone, my dad got off work early and took me and my mom to the countryside. The place we chose was upstream of where other people were swimming, my dad's classmate was at the entrance of that village, and his daughter and I were in the same high school class, which can be regarded as a continuation of the fate of the previous generation.

After a day of high temperatures, in the evening, the water temperature reaches the optimal temperature of 34°C. We changed into swimsuits and swim trunks and plunged into the warm water, and then we enjoyed the quietness and comfort. This kind of stream is two or three meters deep, and there are aquatic plants and talc underground, and the turbulent water in the lower layer will also suck people in. So people like me who are greedy for life and afraid of death can only scratch and pull in the shallow water half a human depth, trying to act like a veteran, although no one pays attention to me.

The skin is over the water, and it is still a little cool when it is blown by the wind, which makes us even more reluctant to get up. It wasn't until the sun's rays were gradually overshadowed by the mountains and the temperature of the water began to drop that we had to start preparing to finish the work. In order to save trouble, we took a bath directly with the stream water, and the foam from the shampoo and shower gel flowed directly downstream with the water. Although there were still many people swimming downstream at this time, by the time the water reached them, there was no smell anymore, not to mention that they did the same. If you think about it, human beings are really selfish.

After taking a shower, changing into clean clothes, saying goodbye to acquaintances, we drove back to the city. The weather is really unbearable, and going home to cook is simply another hot barbecue feast, and when the food is ready, the whole body is "washed" again. So, we had dinner at a roadside restaurant, blowing the evening breeze, and taking a sip of a cold beer...... With a bang, the meaning of life is revealed.

When I returned to the city from the countryside, I was faced with gusts of hot wind, and the effect of the "heat island effect" made me feel that the bath I had just taken was in vain. If you don't turn on the air at home, you will definitely not be able to stay, so you can only rub the air conditioner.

The first stop is Xinhua Bookstore. There is no shortage of "thrifty" people like me in the bookstore, basically everyone has a book in their hands, or sitting, standing, squatting, or leaning on ...... Greedily enjoying cool knowledge. At that time, a small county like ours didn't know what an urban study was, and I only knew that there was a public library, which I had heard of and had never been to. I was born with well-developed sweat glands in my palms, and all the books I read were like blisters, so I didn't dare to sit and read one like everyone else, because these books were for sale. If I had to look twice, the book would be useless. I just had to look at the cover, wander around, and check what new books were in the bookstore. The bookstore is so big, I walked upstairs and downstairs twice, and I visited every corner, even the stationery store twice.

When I lost all interest, I went to the mall next door in the heat wave. The temperature in the mall is lower than in the bookstore, probably to make customers have a better experience and retain more people. As is customary, I first went to the home appliance department on the fifth floor to look at the format of the color TV and computer, and at the same time fantasized about which one I would need to be worthy of it when I had a house in the future. Then I ran to the video game city on the fourth floor and watched the various skills of the high-level players. Finally, I went to the underground supermarket to "inspect the people's feelings" and see the difference between the prices of supermarkets in the north and the south......

In this way, it swayed to about 9 o'clock, and the outdoor temperature has dropped to 289 degrees.

Because the summer vacation is already short, and the student council members need to return to school early to prepare for orientation, this kind of summer vacation is quickly over, and I am about to become a senior!
