Bad PSI

Wednesday (19 June)
We reached in the late morning and Haze was already bad.  Before checking in,  we visited the S.E.A Aquarium.  Each time we looked outside, we believed the PSI would be higher than 152 (that of Tuesday).

By the time we checked in, we had received enough sms reminders to stay indoors. Soon, my brother called to strongly advise us to return home. PSI reached 321 by then. The SCDF had been put on standby and it worried him to know we may be blissfully unaware and breathing in toxic air outside when it's already high alert in the eyes of our leaders.

We had another day of stay and he felt better only after I promised him we'll stay in the room till check out. It was supposed to be USS day tomorrow and the kids, especially AN, were disappointed.

Thursday (20 June)
We went to Vivocity for lunch and to catch a movie: Monster University.

Not surprisingly, Food Republic was not at all crowded. There were so many empty tables that we had problems deciding where to sit. Hehe. We've never seen those tables empty! For once I think the Haze is cool.

After lunch was the movie! Monster University is not as good as the first (Monster Inc.). It wasn't just us, adults who think so. ER started loitering at the last 15 minutes. He loves watching movies and stays seated through every single movie we brought him for. Not for this one. Even AN started fidgeting in her seat by then.

It was back to hotel after that and nap time.

We made full use of the hotel this time, thanks to the Haze that reached hazardous level. By then, it was above 350.

Spent the evening eating in the hotel and ER nagging constantly that he wanted to go out.

Friday (21 June)
Checked out and went home immediately after brunch.

ER is definitely coughing worse than few days ago.

He's been well for 3 months till last week when he started coughing. He's been off Flixotide for almost 3 weeks now and despite the cough and runny nose, he hasn't started panting.

Thank God.

He had been recovering before this sickening Haze. Now he's coughing and dripping mucus.  Constantly coughing in fact.

Am just praying that he won't start panting.

We're praying that this Haze will pass soon. It's terrible at above 400 at some point today.

And Indonesia days we are childish? Our people are choking as their people burn down their forests. Fine or punish those culprits regardless of who those sickening people are!

Why does this have to keep happening?
