Turning on the cold water and having it be warmer than the hot water tap.

Hearing the cicadas sing you the song of their people every single night.

**Receiving a notification on your phone that it needs to cool down before you can use it.**

Waiting for the steering wheel to cool down before driving anywhere.

Taking ice cold showers in the middle of the night.

**Eating hot chips on the beach and spending the whole time trying to avoid the thieving seagulls.**

Being scalded by the boiling hot sand at the beach while walking towards the water.

**Getting branded by your seatbelt when you sit in your car.**

Doing constant Macca's runs to get your fix of Frozen Cokes and 50 cent cones.
