Laundry Day

About the NaNoWriMo, I presented myself to regional nano writers which is located here in the Philippines. Surprisingly, they’re a bit near my age. So it was cool but I was really hoping to meet someone from here in Iloilo so we could meet and do some write-in somewhere.

Okay enough with NaNoWriMo updates. I want to talk about something else. So what have I done lately? Well, I’m just finishing up my 2 sets of laundry. I already pour some fabric conditioner. Any minutes now I’m gonna rinse it and hang it on the carport. I think I should make it official that Thursday is my Laundry Day, at least for now since I don’t really have much to do. Good thing a friend of mine reminded me last time I was in the mall to buy some laundry gloves. It never occur to me to buy one. It really helped me a lot since I don’t have any washing machine.

"This laundry is self-cleaning. Do it yourself"

Few things I learned from this:

1. Separate the colored clothes from the white ones
2. Limit your agitating power, depends on what kind of clothes they are
3. Also your wringing power, there are only few things you can wring away as much as you want, like: jeans, towels, sweats etc. but not the stretchy clothes.
4. Don’t use too much powder detergent. I remember I did that when I was staying in a boarding house. Now I used those clothes as rags.
5. Never forget to check your pockets. Errrr. I just bought a Play Station memory card last month. Then last week, I forgot that it was in my jean’s pocket. Too late, I just noticed it when my pants already dipped in the basin. My Fight Night 3 profile was in there huhuhu T_T

I hope this could help some newbie laundry guys out there who’s trying to live a solitary path just as I was. Ciao!
