Hot wheels

No, I'm not talking about the toy cars.

It's about my car.

On my way to work this morning, I turned my car's aircond dial to 1. There was only hot air, it didn't feel cool at all. Then I turned the dial to 2. Still feels hot. Then I set it to 3. No difference. So I figured that my car's AC ran out of that refrigerant liquid (I don't know what it's called). You know, the liquid that gives out cool air? I was fine going to the office without aircond, because in the morning, the weather is not so hot.

But when I went home from work...my god...it was terrible. I was sweating like crazy, and I had to roll down the car window like how most pakciks always do when they drive (but I don't stick my arms out of the window like they do). I had to turn up The Strokes CD full blast to beat the noise from the traffic. When I was cruising on the highway, I had to roll up the windows because the wind gave me chapped lips. But if I rolled up the windows, I felt suffocated.

I managed to arrive home safely, but extremely dehydrated and with dry skin and lips. And messy hair.

So I told my dad that my car's AC needs to be fixed. He went out to the porch to take a look at my car.

Guess what?

I forgot to turn the AC switch on.
