o I absolutely DETEST doing laundry. It would be so much easier if I had my own washer/dryer. And somewhere to put them.

why does it matter if you have enough clothes and save money by doing it less too:/
Because apparently it makes the room/apartment smell (it doesn't) but it bugged my roommates last time and the apartment managers forced me to was EVERYTHING including my bedspread.
It's also supposed to be "life skills" that I need to learn.

Exactly...why waste my money on soap and water and a machine. Urgola.

I did this my first year of college for sure. I still avoid doing laundry until I don't have pants.
I don't understand why your parents are so upset about this. Or why they have any interest in controlling what you do with your clothes.

Knew I wasn't the only one!

Roommates are weird. My sister lived with some girls her first year of college who got SUPER offended when she changed clothes and didn't immediately put a shirt back on...not like walking around naked or anything even, just walking around in her bra while her hair dried and such.
I'd say invest in one of those big pop-up laundry hampers (the kind you can collapse). I had one for the longest time, that held about 2/3 of all my clothes and had wheels on the bottom. Surely no one can object to dirty laundry in a hamper, we don't all have those birds that Cinderella did.

I have one of those...they object to that too.

I really want that to mean that you have some house-cleaning woodland creatures. Guessing not, though.
Were you in a dorm room or an apartment-like place? I guess in a dorm room I could see laundry being annoying if it wasn't all consolidated...even so though, if you have your own room it'd be pretty impossible for them to notice much less "smell" it. That's just BS.

Haha, I wish.
I was sharing a bedroom in an apartment.
The ONLY difference was that I had a place to cook at any time of the day/night. (which I need, because I have a seriously challenging diet)
Oh, it's a social whatever life skills rule.
But they did clean checks there. I didn't mind if they checked if it was visibly clean...my half of the room was usually spotless a few hours before.
Plus, I think everyone is just jealous that I have that many clothes....they were girls.
