Did you have sickness due to the heat wave this summer?
It's been extremely hot this summer. Reportedly many people were taken to hospital because they ware sick from the heat wave. I haven't get any sickness in summer so far, but I got sick and had to take days off this year. One day I had three meetings with my clients. It was so hot day and I had to go out for the meetings from the morning. After the first meeting I took a train and went for the another meeting. It was so tight schedule that I could not have time for lunch. Moreover, these clients did not serve any drink even in the hot day! I managed to finish the meetings and went for a dinner with my friends. After the dinner, I felt like sitting down in a street because I suddenly felt "kimochiga warui (気持ちが悪い)."(**) I thought I would have to vomit. I could not even get on a train. Even after getting on a train, I had to get off each stations. I finally got to my house but had to take days off in the following days. Now I'm fine but we still have such hot days. Be careful for the heat wave this year!
(**) Please let me know if you know how to describe "気持ちが悪い" in English. Is it "feeling bad"?

(I know this term and I think "I feel sick" has almost exactly the same meaning and can even be used when something disgusts you. "I'm feeling bad" is also fine, but not as commonly said. )
