This is not what I was promised
So, I go to a university in Mutare. When I told friends and family that I'd be coming here they were all raving about how wonderful the weather is here (not too hot, not too cold) and how it's a refreshing break from Harare. I love nature (sorta), so I was in high spirits because, well, who doesn't love the promise of a place with good weather right? Well I was lied to. The weather here is so bipolar that its not even funny. Sometimes when I go out it feels like I'm getting spit roasted and the next second it's 1pm, cloudy and I'm shivering in the clothes I wore in the morning because I thought they were appropriate for the weather at the time!!
Like I'm not even exaggerating when I say that it's hotter here than it is in Harare. Right now, I'm in my room and it's windy as hell but the second I step outside, I get a blast of disgustingly hot air and I just about die inside a little. The reason why this is so annoying for me is because I sweat easily, like very easily, so I'm constantly having to walk around looking sweaty and gross because of this horrid weather.
The only silver lining is that my uni is situated in a valley so we're surrounded by the most beautiful mountains you'll ever lay your eyes on. Like everyday when I open my windows, I'm greeted by such a beautiful sight that never fails to take my breath away. It makes the disgusting weather only slightly annoying. I don't know what the point of this rant is anymore. Anyways, I love it here but the heat makes me want to roll down a small hill. That's all.
