People often wonder how we stand the cold here in Canada.. especially someone like myself, who comes from a place where it is sunny 365 days a year.. or rather .. we say .. we don’t have any season, it’s summer every day.. and every season. Well, we do get the rain.. and the storms.. but they don’t really last too long, it’s usually very humid and dry where i come from. The place i come from is an island but a city and a country, very modern but no place for a motorhome nor motorhome towing services. But everything is as high tech as it can get. Don’t believe me..?? just google – Singapore and you will know where i come from.
Although, we come from a very advanced country, our upbringing is very much backwards, because my forefathers and parents are very traditional people. The believed in a lot of superstitions and the 3rd kind.. if you know what i mean. And some of the things that may not sound logical to the “ang mohs” .. we kinda grew used to it.. and practiced it even without really, really believing in it. Better safe than sorry..??
Like the cold weather for example, my mom used to make us dressed really warm coz’ she said.. else you are gonna get sick. But truth be told, you and i know that one gets a cold from virus in the air. But having said that.. when one is cold as compared to the other warm person, the colder person is more susceptible to getting sick quicker as study had shown. Even though I myself know that not keeping warm isn’t the real reason .. for getting sick, i still used it on Chloe and tell her strictly, ” you wanna get sick is it..?? quickly put on your scarf and keep your neck warm!” so you see .. even though we said.. we would never be like our mom.. we are like mom.. muahhaha!!! but yes.. one don’t get a cold .. if you don’t keep warm.
