Order Please
Being the eldest, I was raised and thought to be independent and be a role model (I try to be, lol) to my younger siblings. During the weekends I would gather my brothers and sisters for the simple responsibilities we have to finish before we go for play.I had to go to a higher education institution where it is very far from home. Live alone (I mean away from my family) in a dormitory (not really alone bec I have a roommate with me). I've learned more. Do laundry and fold them, do the cleaning and the organizing of my place and make sure that it is well kept and so on...
Then, I decided to find my luck abroad, work. And again I am not "living alone". Not just one but few roommates. More than enough to mess up the whole villa we are living. As grown individuals, esp us women, we are expected to have that kind of order and neatness in our certain places. Example after preparing something in the kitchen, we are expected to clean up the clutter and sweep and wipe the stain on the floor. A simple sweeping of the floor just to remove some dust from yesterday's mess. Remove the fallen human hairs on the bathroom strainer so as not to clog the pipe. And so on and so on... But there are some people who don't know those simple things. And they seem they didn't care if their surroundings is full of clutter. Sometimes didn't care to wash the dishes and the insects (if there is) might come crawling on them. I really can't understand how they can tolerate such chaos. And they are just sitting around watching tv and surfing the internet.
As we become adults, maybe, it would show how we have been raised and or upbringing have a deal on how we organize and do our personal choices of orderliness, neatness and cleanliness. And it affects to the whole as a person.
And it is said that cleanliness is associated with hygiene, then I know and conclude ... .. (keeping that to myself)...
Now, girls we have to do the organizing and we expect you guys to help (IF, just a little maybe, don't want to be demanding there).
Now, men would you want women who keep your home neat and in order or the other way around?

How not to behave on a Web Site!!
We tried to have a schedule for the simple cleaning but that didn't work. Some did follow but not all.
What we just expect is the keeping clean of the common areas (kitchen, living room, bathrooms, etc), but seems there are some who didn't make any effort to do what they are ask for.
And it is hard to give a word to them because some are older than I am.
Kidding aside, about hygiene, yeah it varies from person to person and from cultures. One's personal care practices related to most aspects of daily living. Regular hygienic practices may be considered good habits to some, but to others not.

Gosh, that map, a torture to my eyes. I need a magnifying glass to see where your place in there...
Once the same type of things was told to me by my mom about the question of younger sibling! Getting such a similarity just astonishing today a lot! Another side in the question of cleaning (small details of life) I have somewhat same experience and responsibilities like you due to my situations. Thanks for sharing your story… where I really found a lot of similarities!
Me and my siblings were bit of riot when we were younger but we have learned to respect each other now. There are some fights over who's to do the chores and other small things before. But gladly enough, we had been raised by wonderful parents to teach (almost) all what we need to learn in life, esp cleaning and organizing.
Wish you all the best for your future!
Have a nice evening to you Guess and thank you.
Since I can't e-mail you with a flower to say thank for your help in posting songs this will have to do:
