Freaking me out

[guanin]

Okay. I live in a dorm, right? A dorm with shared bathrooms on every floor. Every floor is divided by sex. You get women on one floor, men in the next, etc. Since we have single rooms versus the fully equipped flats of my previous dorm (where floors weren't stratified this way, I think), I'm assuming that the reason here might be, oh, I don't know, the shared bathrooms, where at any given moment someone is getting out of the shower draped in a skimpy towel or is washing her face or the other stuff. Otherwise known as the kind of stuff I don't like to do in front of anyone, but I make do as long as at least it's a female someone, but then for some reason that I cannot comprehend, guys (yes, male guys), seem to have no problem in wandering in, going to the bathroom, taking a shower, or just hanging out with their female friend while she slaps some makeup on. Am I the only one who thinks this is not acceptable? actually, I know I'm not. I talked about this with another girl my first week here. She's from Singapore and suggested that maybe it was a cultural thing, but it was freaking her out, too. I can't believe I actually miss my old dorm.

Hahaha, well, I suppose it does have its advantages. ;) I'd be more scared of a guy seeing me come out of the shower, though.

I really wish I'd gotten a look at his face, but I was too shocked. Thankfully, I only go in and out fully clothed (well, house clothes), so it's not as much of a porblem, but still.
