Laundry Day...Or Night!

Doing your own Laundry every week is important. You never want to end up in a situation when you want to go out but all you clothes are dirty and when you try to wash them all the machines are taken, then you miss the awesome lime and the opportunity to meet your rich future husband, all because you didn't wash your clothes every week.

What I do is start by buying my tokens form the business office on Monday every week. That way I know when I go to do it I have everything I need.


For those of you who have never had to do laundry by your self before here's a quick guide.

Separate you clothes into smaller piles of Whites, Darks and Colours. If your Colours pile is large separate it again into smaller piles of hues of reds (red, pink, yellow, orange, etc) and hues of blue (blue, green, etc).

Get get whites really clean, wash in HOT water, but this is only for whites!

Darks, because of the fabric dyes used need to be washed in COLD water, unless you want everything to come out faded.

Colours can be washed in cold and medium WARM water.

If your using fabric softener, do not ever let it touch your clothes directly. add water to it then add it to your laundry.

I start by inserting my token, adding my soap, then closing the lid of the washing machine and letting it fill with some water. Your clothes should never really come into direct contact with the concentrated soap, its not good for them. Once I have a soap-water mixture, I add my clothes, close the top, set my timer for 30 minutes and leave.

There are really no tricks to drying. Simply transfer your clothes from the washing machine to the dryer, insert token, turn on, set timer for 45 minutes and leave.

Some people have the problem where what they put to dry never dries on the first spin. To prevent this, don't over load the dryer! It should not have more than what can fit into a standard plastic grocery bag packed to capacity and perhaps one towel more. And if your doing laundry every week this should be no problem.

Last tip, do your laundry at night during a study session. When studying you should take breaks every 50 minutes or else your brain gets tired. So every 50 min go check on your clothes. Also during the day, everyone washes because some people need to hang their clothes in the sun. People are mostly sleeping or studying at night to be bothered with laundry so you get everything to yourself.

Well that's all folks! Happy Clean Clothes To Ya!!!!
