I really want to be able to do my three posts a day but I think I may end up missing one today. I have an exam tomorrow morning and Thursday morning, too, which is annoying because then I can't do revision in the morning before. This means that I need a couple of short topics to write about. I think this one will be quick and easy since I have already talked about this before. Seems to be the trend for today...
Last night my shower was finally fixed. I was so so so so happy about it because, as I've said, I despise having to use the other bathrooms. The main reason is just because I don't particularly like having to carry around all my shower stuff, especially my dripping loofah. I know I'll have to when I live in dorms in university but I'm not at university yet, therefore I shouldn't have to live as if I were.
However, this excitement was short lived when I found out a few things. Be warned, these are more of my lovely first world problems issues. The first was that the control thing would have to be changed since they weren't able to get the original pump so just bought a different brand. This annoyed me a bit because my philosophy is that if something works well, you shouldn't change it. And my shower did work well until it broke and I was happy with it. My problem with the new control thing is that it's quite ugly in my opinion. My old one was circular and suited my bathroom. There was a button in the middle to turn on and off the shower and a ring of light around to show that the shower is on. Then around that is a dial to adjust the temperature. The new one is rectangular. The shape just doesn't look right. And there is a button at the top and a dial underneath. The dial is like an egg timer dial and is awkward to change. Plus, it doesn't look nice and the arrow is quite faint so I never really know the temperature.
However all these issues are insignificant once the shower is turned on. Literally no water came out. The water pressure is horrible. Even my sink tap works better. It looks a bit like tears and makes my showers really depressing. They tried changing the shower head which really didn't do much so now I have three choices: 3 strongish jets of water, a weaker ring of water but none from the middle or both sets releasing pathetically weak water. None of these options are acceptable to me and I really hate this new shower.
