The air you sleep in makes a HUGE impact on the way you feel throughout the day, especially if you're highly sensitive to the pollution. We've had a lot of red days in the past few months, and, for some areas, it's been purple. Beyond that, keep an eye on the pollution readings and wear masks with 2.5PM filters while running around on bad days.

If I could vote and would care to vote I would pick someone who doesn't follow this idiotic madness and campaigns on some other way which results in less noise. Let's face it, there is most likely no such candidate so my second choice would be the one who has some hotties dancing instead of grandmothers. Seriously though, these clown parades only seem to target the 50+ generation. Why aren't they targeting the younger voters with something different. Arrgggh, 11 more days of this nightmare. On the bright side, I think this is most likely the last one I have to endure. I pray that MJI doesn't screw up and get himself impeached.
Why is the ground beef here so grisly? It has hunks of nastiness in it and it stinks when fried.
I hate what's going on as "election campaign" over here.Damn trucks illegally parked at busy intersections, blocking traffic and visibility, blasting these real dumb songs about how great such and such candidate is. If not songs, then some ajhossi or ajumma shouts some bs. into the microphone that causes ear damage to anyone within 50 meters. Except no one seems to care about what they say, they have no audience, everyone just avoids them as far as they can to prevent said ear damage.In front of the E-mart there were easily 25 clowns wearing the same jacket accompanied by two trucks. Do they really think it works? Do they really think that this is the only way it works? The louder they are, the more ajummas they hire to act like clowns will help them win? No one thinks outside the box? Why do the same exact thing? Okay, they do everything else the same way, why would the campaign be different...If I could vote and would care to vote I would pick someone who doesn't follow this idiotic madness and campaigns on some other way which results in less noise.

The response by the Korean farmer was that if that was the correct way to do it, their ancestors would've done it so.
Student lost his book, apparently, insists that he left it in my room because there's no POSSIBLE way that he'd left it anywhere else (last time he was in my classroom was on Tuesday, btw, but for some reason he's only now noticing his book missing), but I didn't find anything and I don't have it and I let him check every single desk and cubby hole. It's not here.I feel for the kid because his parents are probably going to get angry with him or whatever, but that's not my fault. STOP looking at me as if I'm hiding it from you, either someone else took it or you didn't leave it in my classroom. Accept it and move on.

Some people feel the effects more than others.If you don't already have an air purifier, I'd recommend getting one for your apartment.

Is there a brand, or even a specific product, you'd recommend for an air purifier? I've started to feel really bad again, and think it might be the air. I've never needed to own one before, so I'm not sure what to look for in one. :p

I've never needed to own one before, so I'm not sure what to look for in one. :pPretty much every brand has its decent purifier, so what you need to consider is the size of your place and how much you're willing/able to spend. Also keep in mind that some of the cheaper/mid-range models of air purifiers aren't effective on low settings and must be at middle to high settings to properly filter your air (which means more noise... but again, it depends on the brand/model). Xiaomi has good, cheaper options that get the job done, but you need to know that its sensors are known to be wonky, so that basically means you can't just leave it on auto and think that your air is getting filtered; however, I think it's the Air Mi 2 model (not sure if I'm getting this name right, others can jump right in on that) has a wifi/remote option so that you can use your phone to switch it on without being home. That way the air will be nice and filtered before you get there, so you can leave the purifier off during the day while you're out. I've been using Winix because it's a decent local mid-range option with filters that are easy to get my hands on, but Samsung has some good options, too. Outside of those, I'm only really familiar with foreign brands, which are quite a bit more pricey and harder to get replacement filters for (except for Xiaomi).Just make sure that whatever purifier you get, that it 1) uses HEPA filters (no air purifier is worth getting without HEPA), and 2) it has enough power to filter the air in your size living space.
i have the xioami one and it seems fine. the auto sensor seems to work ok- if i'm cooking steak and it gets a bit smoky, it'll kick into overdrive and go crazy for a few minutes. same if i leave the windows open and the air is bad outside. its also dead quiet usually
