Hi There. Morning Friends! Thank goodness I am in the nightshift which means I am the only person who can really use our bathroom since all of them are either going to bed or doing other stuff. I just noticed that I stay there for 30-45 minutes before going to work, I simply just take a bath, brush my teeth, and taking sometime to face the mirror and comb my hair then that's it! Sometimes, I dressed in the bathroom as well... lolz. Then when I don't have work, we have a tub, I just stay there for as long as I can... maybe for an hour... hehe How about you guys, how much time do you spend in the bathroom? What else do you do there?

I spend maximum 20 minutes and i need to wash body twice so then i can fell and get good skin and my skin always shines very well so i do bath twice in a day once in the morning and second time in the evening.

Because i fell over heat here and already here summer and we have heavy temperature so we need to do at least four times in a day now so it takes daily one hour for bath.

I spend about 30 - 40 minutes in the bathroom in the morning, there's always a ritual of shower, clean teeth, get dressed, dry hair, put on make up and then out for work!

hmm, when i was young, i used to spend two hours in the bathroom.. i like to play while taking a bath.. create bubbles and stuff like that.. i really love water - rain, sea, and yes, tap water.. haha.. now, if i have time to burn, i spend about an hour in the bathroom but if i have work and i need to hasten up, i spend about 30mins there... and if i'm in a real hurry, about 15 to 20mins. in those times, i feel a bit incomplete..

I must admit that I spend a lot of time there sometimes... I sit on the toilet and read a book for hours if the book is a good one. I take quick showers about 9 minutes or less. I go outside the bathroom (as my bathroom only contains a shower/bath and the toilet) to use the sink/mirror outside of the bathroom to wash my face, brush my hair, put in or take out contact lenses, and to apply deoderant after showering, to check on my clothing, and to apply a minimal amount of make up. I usually allow myself an hour to get up and to get ready for work but have been known to do this in 30 minutes or less depending on the availability of a good book or other good reading material in the bathroom.

I spend about an half an hour in there in the mornings showering, dressing doing my hair and brushing my teeth before work. I occasionally will wear makeup but most of the time i dont bother. I have a bath or shower at night sometimes too...and spend about a half hour to an hour in there then More for relaxation and shaving my legs and things that id prefer to take my time doing than rush to do in the morning.

i usually spend a maximum of 30 minutes in a shower when i wash my hair... i can't really spend too much time in a bathroom as we only have 1 bathroom in the house and i have to share it with my hubby... so we usually be considerate with each other as we start work together in the morning and have to leave early together...

What do you mean by what do I do there? LOL... I do anything and everything that everyone does in the bathroom! As for how long I spend, that will depend on how much time I have and how long I feel like spending on each activity. Cheers!

My family say I always spend long time having a bath. I never understand why my mom can finish it in a few minutes. I think I will stay in the bathroom for about 20 minutes. And the time will be longer in winter. When I have a bath in the bathroom, I also treat it as a chance to relax.

Oh my mom finish it in few minutes with everything done! I just love staying there especially when it is summer! Love the cold water rushing to my body!

i guess you are one of the call agent that work every night. common job nowadays specially here in the Philippines. Most of the male spent less time in the bath room unless some miracle did while taking a bath. LOL 20 minutes for me is too long to stay inside the bath room.
• Philippines
29 Apr 08
Yes, you are right. This is the common job nowadays here in the Philippines. And it is so hot int he afternoon that is why I stay there to freshen up. heheh

When I get a chance to take a relaxing bath I try to stay in there as long as I can, which can be 30 to 45 minutes. Then my kids are knocking on the door begging me to come out. LOL. other than that about 20 min, shower, dry, brush teeth, and put something on.
• Philippines

Yep, me too, I stay there when I get the chance.heheh

I shower and that only takes about ten minutes and anotherten for other things and I am out of there. I have other things I would much rather do than spend a lot of time in my bathroom like mylotting and other pursuits on the web. I used to love to soak in a tub but I have a bad arm thus have to use the shower alltogether.

Yes, that is right. :)

I usually only spend about a half an hour in the bathroom, taking a shower and changing my clothes, brushing my teeth and hair, and what not. We don't have a bathtub downstairs, so I just have to take a shower. Sometimes, when I take the time to shave my legs and what not, I will be in the bathroom even longer, sometimes an hour! Those are the days that I pamper myself though, because we all need that.
• Philippines
29 Apr 08
Yes, you are right. We need to pamper ourselves sometimes. hehehe

I spend as little time in the bathroom as possible...just the vital stuff! I have never really been a girly girl and had to spend hours getting ready or anything, a quick shower, get dressed, blow dry hair, dab of makeup and twenty minutes later I'm done :)

Hi Jes, Very Good Morning! Playing with water always lifts my spirit and helps me start fresh all over again. Spending 30 odd minutes at Bathroom helps me relax and plan up the day better. Helps me to think over again and again and make better decisions. Good to know you get to work at night shifts. You get the entire day to relax when rest of the world sweat out at chaotic traffic and you can work as well in peace at nights.

Good Morning! Yup, you are right especially when it is really hot or summer, I love spending time in the bathroom!
