Yesterday I was lying on my bed, too tensed up and stressed to sleep at like 3a.m. after rushing my GP presentation for nearly 5 hours (excluding research). Anyway so I suddenly thought of my showering habits and got quite disgusted at myself!
Firstly, I usually shower once a day unless the weather is really horrid or I have PE on that particular day, some people find this disgusting but I think its fine. At least I know I don't stink.
But I can go without showering for 2 days, and that happens quite frequently, as in if I showered yesterday and I didn't perspire much, and I am lazy to step into the shower, I won't shower today, even if its a school day, that's provided that I don't feel sticky with perspiration and my 'aroma' doesnt affect my appetite. If I don't stink la! But don't you worry coz I always shower before I go out to meet friends! I swear I don't want to spoil your mood. And no, perfume is not used to mask the 'aroma'!
On top of that, I am sometimes damn lazy to wash my hair, so I just shower without washing my hair, and sometimes for 2 consecutive days I would do that. When do I realise then I need to wash my hair? When my hair's sticky and clumpy with perspiration, or when my scalp itches. Now as I think about it its actually quite gross! I think the record is 3 days.
Oh I seldom wash my face with facial wash too! Maybe about once or twice a week, on other days its just tap water. Only when I feel that my pores are too clogged up or I feel too hopelessly dirty then would i use it. But fortunately my skin is fine, not heavily pimpled or anything.
Eh what else? So far my record for going on without showering is 3 days! Don't think I would want to break that, but who knows? I may just decide to. That was in Primary 6 when I attended this International Brownies Festival in KL, my first time away from home. I remember I showered on the first day, but the bathrooms in university hostel that we stayed in was so horrid that I never wanted to step into it again! On day 2, we went to some place that allowed us to play in water, but I can't remember where. Subsequently, I never showered till day 5 when I reached home. I think I did wash my hands and feet everyday though. I have no idea how I survived those few days but I managed to!
That's about all. And the most recent time that I wen t on without showering was two days ago! When I was absent from school, since I was spending time in my bed and room, there was 'little' need to shower coz I didn't perspire much! Sometimes I do that over weekends too when I do not go out at all.
Sounds disgusting to you? Maybe. But tell me about your showering habits too if they are not ordinary! I'd love to hear. But don't flood my tagboard, post as comments instead!
:) weekends are coming!
