Possibly one of the worst nightmares here. That is, besides pollution (most of the time) and food (sometimes). Three washing machines for 52 boys, mostly untrained in the ways of housemaidery. Throw in some inconsiderate ones who will do anything to get their laundry in those machines and out to dry (taking others' clothes out of them before the time's up, throwing clothes hanging out to dry on the floor and taking the communal hangars) and you get utter chaos. Hell, they've filled three boxes full of lost laundry already and thrown away two. It's not just socks and undergarments that go missing, but even bulky stuff like jeans too. Probably cos most people don't bother going through a pile of stinky laundry or plain forget about it. In fact, it seems its a ritual for me to lose one piece of underwear each time i do the laundry. Either because someone took them when i left them out to dry, or dumped my laundry out of the washing machine before i could get to it so it got lost in the mess of clothes strewn over the floor. Half the time i manage to find it, and the other half i lose it for good. The laundry room's supposed to be a place when you clean your stuff, but i'd say its the messiest place in the whole dorm, what with random clothes and spilt washing powder thrown all around. Talk about hanging your dirty laundry in public. |
