I used to hate the haze but now I detest it!! It is so disruptive to my training program that I didn't ran outdoors since 5 Sept when I participated in a 10KM run. In fact, a lot of running events had been either cancelled or 'modified' to a shorter route or walkathon. I have signed up for the Standard Chartered Half Marathon due in early December and though it seems a long time, but its actually 2 months and a half to go or 10 weeks. I thought I did quite badly in the Sundown HM in July, though I am not a seasoned runner but I hope to improve on my next HM. I gotta resort to running in the treadmills for the past 2 weeks and the most I can run there was 5KM as there were folks waiting for the machine.
Well, hope for clearer skies in days to come and the good news is that both Malaysia and Singapore weather forecast predicted there will be a changed in the wind direction this week, as well as there will be rains here. Looking forward to it while I was wearing a N95 mask after work today as I cannot stand the burning smell when the haze hit psi 200+.
I thought it's a good idea to have something soupy for dinner and I simply ordered a fish maw with crab meat soup , and a small rice nearby my home. It's delicious, tasted like shark fins without the fins. :)
Drinks lots of water and let's pray the dreadful haze will end soon! Have a good week!
The haze was very bad today
ReplyDeleteYup....it was 200+ psi...sigh....choke!
DeleteOver 900 at some place in Sumatra! Shocking!!!
ReplyDeleteYa, the soup base is exactly the same...whatever one adds to it - sharks' fins, sea cucumber, fish lips, fish maw... What's cat maw?
Oh dear....God bless the folks there. Thanks for highlighting, I have corrected it to fish maw. Haha
DeleteMy kind of soup, since I am trying to support anti-shark fin. But like STP said, what is cat maw?? Not fish maw??
ReplyDeleteRose - I had it once a while.. I have corrected it to fish maw. Thanks
DeleteLooks like tofu kang, but I don't see any tofu inside.. Tofu kang taste like sharkfins crabmeat soup too, but without the fins.. They have mushrooms, shredded carrots, tofu..
ReplyDeletePrincess - in other words, it's shark fins without the fins..muahahahaha
DeleteSchool is off today over here but terbalik sky looks clearer than yesterday
ReplyDeleteKucing - I wonder if jb also off, no news so far.
DeleteSickening, the haze, can't do outdoor jog or zumba...
ReplyDeleteSharon - stay indoor ro do your Zumba under the air conditioning. It's more comfy.
Deleteyeah bad bad haze for the recent two weeks and seems to be getting worse.. looks like so misty or foggy outside when you are sitting indoors..
ReplyDeleteSK - Yes, it was bad two days ago but some respite lately where it rained heavily.
Deletelots of events and activities are affected by the haze, even schools have to be closed and I guess it's better to stay away from outdoor activities too.. so you gotta resort to training indoor then.. :)
ReplyDeleteSK - Yeah lor.. I have been working out in the gym for the past week!
Deleteah, fish maw soup, that one looks very delicious actually.. but I think I'll just have the soup and not go with the rice, hehe!! anyway, drink more liquid and get hydrated all time.. :)
ReplyDeleteSK - I thought of doing so but then, some rice help to fill my stomach else I have to eat again! hahaha
DeleteI have been sneezing and coughing here!
ReplyDeleteNobody likes this haze and it has become an annual affair. Bad karma awaits those who burn yearly!
Time for you to hit the gym instead to run on treadmills. Happy running!
TM - Been running daily for the past week.
DeleteYesterday the haze was really bad. I felt so choked when I went out to buy groceries. Today is a bit better. Don't know how long we will have to put up with this :(
ReplyDeleteIts better these two days in SG due to thunderstorms.
DeleteTake care and hope you will stay healthy!
ReplyDeletelina - I am ok... you too, stay healthy!
DeleteYeah, haze is so bad that schools are closing.
ReplyDeleteI heard the F1 in Singapore is still going on though, despite reduced visibility. I love fish maw soup too, don't mind shark fin as well but actually fish maw tastes better, coz shark fin is only texture.
HB - Heard there';s a wind direction change this weekend during F1, as well as rumours that some cloud-seeding taking place to clear the haze here, dunno its true or not. hahahA
DeleteSimply hate it but can't avoid it. Just make sure we drink lots of plain water.
ReplyDeletewenn - yeah, drink lots of water, isotonic drink also can!
DeleteNice layout of your blog! So long I didnt come by.. hehehe.. yes, my eyes still smarting bec of the haze.. hope it goes off soon!
ReplyDeleteyeah lor.....never patronise !!
DeleteLooking so much yummy and delicious . I loved this one can i make my dinner with this ? I can't avoid it beacuse i know it will be the healthy recipes which is i like most and post on our Food List
ReplyDeleteThe haze is terrible, I know. Lived through so many episodes of it. I had to pry my eyes open or fan it whenever it itched to prevent myself from rubbing it.
