students in public universities in malaysia must share my dilemma everyday, or maybe not. it depends on if they're afraid of taking a cold shower. i know malaysia is hot and humid all year long but shower without water heater is still a torture for me. some might say you can boil water first before you shower, but if you know me, then you'll know my laziness dictates and prevents my action. haiz, moment like this makes me love my home a thousand times more.
due to lack of water heater, my shower time doubled. it takes me 30 minutes now, such a waste of time, that's why sometimes i feel like skipping it. the main reason for delay:
- i have to wait for my body to adapt to the water temperature and reach equilibrium before i can rinse myself
i'll just stand there naked and spatter some water on my hands and arm to reach the equilibrium. this takes more than 5 minutes sometimes. now you see why my shower time is so long?
a water heater is like a luxury here. non of the residence have water heater and we have more than 20 thousands students in students' residence. this is how our bathroom looks like
the simplest ever, simple is good, but it'll be hell lot better if we have water heater. only if some philanthropist is kind enough to donate us thousands of water heater. unfortunately, this is not a need in malaysia so i'll just have to deal with this predicament for 2 more years.
