Me and My Weird Bathroom Habit
March 20, 2009Others like kitchen some like living room but for me I always love bathrooms. Bathroom is best place to chill and to brainstorm. My friends find it odd that I love to solve complex problems while sitting like a queen on the toilet seat, I could actually sit on there for hours with my PDA or a notebook and pen on hands. Sometimes I even brought snacks in my bathroom. I know this sounds weird, but this is the weird ME.
With this weird habit of mine, I always make sure that my bathroom is always clean, orderly and well-designed. Because I am spending a long number of hours in my bathroom I always see to it that I have something beautiful to look at while staring on space and forcing ideas to squeeze out of my brainy brains.
Other people beautify their bathrooms because they believed that bathrooms are the showcase of how clean and how organized your house is. On my home creating beautiful bathroom is not for the sake of showcasing cleanliness and orderliness, on my home it is a MUST! I always make sure that my bathroom is perfect balance of beauty and functionality. Most of the things that I consider when upgrading and designing my bathroom are the tranquility, attractive colors that would suit my taste and comfortable facilities bring me the right energy and inspiration for my brainstorming or relaxation. For my peculiar taste in bathroom fixture, betterbathrooms.com is the place where I always look first.

hahaha! actually i also have a habit of taking a book with me while in the bathroom as well. ei, some find it weird (ok some might find reading a chapter inside the bathroom weird), but its the quietest place in my apartment (as if living alone is not quiet enough).
i don’t know it could be the four tiled corners of my bathroom which acts as one helluva soundproof shield against outside world or it’s the fact that you know that its just you and the book you’re reading.
kinda like superman’s fort of solitude.
weird? naaah, i guess we just need complete isolation when we want to focus on something.
