Summer Arrival

Yo People.
Hi, This is Aadya Joshi. 9th Grade.

Summers be so hot. To beat the summers we need to take a few steps and take a chill pill! B|
Rule number 1: Drink a lot of water.That keeps you hydrated. Studies prove that helps you lose weight and detoxify.
Rule number 2: Go for a run. Make some friends and run for atleast 30 minutes. Go girl! xD
Rule number 3: Go for regular swims with your friends and have fun. xD
Rule number 4: Rest smart. Relax and cool down at the same time with these tips:
Sit still. Do not try to fan yourself — trying to move while feeling hot can make you feel hotter. Simply rest until the evening.
Sit in the shade. Find a shaded area and set up a water misting system that connects to an ordinary garden hose that can be found at home improvement stores. Sit there and let the mist cool you off.
Avoid peak sunlight hours. Take a cue from people in extremely hot climates and avoid going out between 10 a.m. and 3p.m., when the sun's rays are hottest. You'll also avoid a sunburn this way.

Rule number 5: Make a DIY air conditioner. Put a metal bowl of salted ice in front of a fan, and adjust the fan so that the air is blowing over the ice. Or, use one or more 2 liter bottles and fill them mostly full of (water - 70%) & (rock salt - 10%) (air - 20% for expansion) (the salt brings the temp of the frozen water down to a lower ºF), freeze them, then place them in a large bowl (to catch dripping condensation). Position a fan to blow on them. As the salty ice in the bottles melts, the air cools around them. The fan will blow that air at you. The water & salt in the bottles can be refrozen every night and used again repeatedly.
You can also turn on your stove fan (on the ventilator hood) or open up your chimney flue. These will also draw hot air out of the house and pull cooler evening air into the house.

Hope it helps you. :D
