Friday #3

Hi everyone!

I loved this month’s theme. I love bathrooms, in general. I enjoy discovering the bathroom everywhere I go, since I was a little girl. Most of it because I still have the bladder of a little girl, and the first thing I need to do wherever I’m at is to go. Kinda embarrasing to say it publicly, but who knows me gets used to it.

Also gets used to me going through closets and drawers in their bathrooms. Yeah, I do snoop around. But only in bathroom cabinets and closets. You know the theory that says you can really know a person when you look to his supermarket chart? Well, I apply that theory to bathrooms.

For me is the one time of my day where I look deeply at myself, I undress, I take off clothes and masks and devote some time to take care of myself. Hair, nails, skin. Eyebrows, eyelashes, lips. Hips, toes, legs. Nothing is left out. That said, it’s no surprise I’m shampoo-soaps-nailpolish-and-lotion crazy. I can’t resist different scents, different colors, new products.

I’ve been kinda busy this month to take my own bathroom picture, but since I was up for writing today, I felt guilty and took some a little while ago. They are not as good as I thought I would make them to be, but they show a bit of the corkyness I let out when I’m on my own. Like my collection of ladybug-shaped objects, and my need of having two or three types of shampoo available.

Ok, so let’s get to my choices for this Friday #3.

I felt moved by the one with the pregnancy test. I think finding out the answer of those tests is one of the few life-shifting moments a person can have. It is you, alone, looking at yourself in the mirror, seeing things change. Wheter it shows a positive or a negative answer, it makes you consider your life as it is, and how you would like it to be.

Other picture I loved is the one the girls is hiding behind some door (shower curtain, maybe?). Being at your own bathroom is all about being true to yourself while looking in the mirror. At least that’s how it works for me, I have nothing to hide, nothing to be embarrased about.

The other picture I loved is the one with the girl taking a bath of books. For the obvious reasons, I loved that one. It falls into the category Pictures-I-wish-I-had-taken. And, if it ok with the author, I might take my own version of such a delightful idea.

At last, I chose a picture out of curiosity. Was it taken in a bathroom? It doesn’t show it very well. The author says, as an explanation to the photo, that he just moved to a whole different country, a different house, but he didn’t show his different bathroom very well. I hope he doesn’t get mad at me or anything for questioning him about it, but the thing is I got very curious about bathroom in Qatar. Are they different? In which ways? And if they are, why are they so? Just as you can really know people by their bathrooms, (and, yes, by now, if you have seen my bathroom, you figured out that I am a bit crazy and weird! And, you know, I’m starting to feel ok about it) you can know a country, its people, its culture, by knowing their bathroom ways and choices. So, if it isn’t too much to ask for, please mr. intrepidflame, show us a bathroom of Qatar!

I hope you enjoyed as much as I did! See you next tird friday!
