So, a Northerner Walks into Guangzhou...
-
It's so tough being a local here.
-
You should try some Guangdong herbal tea. Isn't there tons of it in Guangzhou? By any chance, were you born on a Geng-Xin day and need to avoid 'fire'?
-
Wow, master, you're spot on! I'm a Geng-Shen with a 'weak self' element.
-
We locals experience this too, especially in August. Stepping outside, it's so hot you feel like you're running out of oxygen. The humidity is so heavy, you feel like a fish gasping for air on dry land.
-
Wow, the weather in Guangzhou a couple of days ago... air humidity was 93%! I seriously felt like if I didn't evolve gills soon, I'd drown on dry land.
-
The 'fire' element clashes with me. I'm in Guangzhou, so I drink herbal tea every day.
-
That sounds really tough! You probably favor 'metal' and 'water' elements too. Right now, I'm in Beijing, and everything feels much more comfortable for me here.
-
I really can't take it anymore. My whole body feels uncomfortable, and I have a sore throat.
-
Mine's sore too! Yesterday, being outside, I felt like I could faint any second.
-
Having some (herbal tea) might help. It's been raining the past few days, making the weather especially muggy. It's perfectly normal to feel unwell.
-
Alright, I'll get some today.
-
Anyone who thrives in 'fire' energy should head straight to Guangzhou!
-
Oh, you poor thing! But seriously, it's been unbearable these last few days – so muggy, damp, and hot.
-
You're welcome to come to Beijing to dry out!
-
I'm heading back to Beijing tomorrow!
-
It's been raining so much lately. I feel incredibly down every day, like I'm at my breaking point, and my temper is really short.
