Our fears came true. Schools will be closed on Monday and Tuesday (5 – 6 October 2015) caused by the worsening haze. API at our place today was over 300! This means exam on Monday and Tuesday will be postponed to the following Monday and Tuesday (12 – 13 October 2015) while exam will go on as scheduled on Wednesday – Friday this coming week should the haze situation improve and schools can be reopened. We thought that all exams for this year will be over and done with by this coming Friday but the exam fever has to be prolonged, sigh!
The haze yesterday was the worst ever since our country was blanketed by haze about a month ago.
This picture was taken at about 3pm yesterday and we could barely see what’s outside clearly. KLCC and KL Tower were totally not visible from our place.

As I am typing this post at 8pm, the haze situation has improved substantially. KLCC and KL Tower can be seen distinctly glittering in yellow and red lights from our unit. If the haze is blown away by tomorrow, the 2 days of school holiday will be given in vain!
Our Sunday today started at 5am. Alycia had to be at the new high school by 7:15am for streaming assessment.
After the exam ended at 1:30pm, we went to Tesco for shopping.
And then adjourned to the electrical shop to purchase a new TV. I almost suffocated in the hot and humid hazy afternoon at the electrical shop as there is a mega sale on going now and the entire road outside the shop was a sea of crazy shoppers carrying their electrical items. Our new TV has a whopping 55 inch / 139cm screen! Back home, the girls were You Tubing and surfing the internet using the wide screen TV. Revision was put on hold since we now have 2 extra days to do it 😀
