bubbles bubbles everywhere

So I'm a freshmen in college, and haven't quite gotton the hang of the "dorm life". See, at night, I'm not one to go party and drink untill I have no reccolection of the last 5 years. I enjoy going to sleep and getting well rested for the next day in which I get up very early to go to classes. Apparntly, I am the only one. Well anyway, there are only 4 washers that my entire 3 story dorm building gets to share, so washing your laundry is basically a "first come first serve" or "im first but you look like you could kill me" situation. One day I FINALLY got the opportunity to do laundry but for one washer, I only put on t-shirt in because it was brand new and a very pretty white! Thinking nothing of it, I poured a normal amount of detergent into the washer and went back to my room planning on returning for the dryer session in 30 minutes. When I went back to get my laundry, the ENTIRE laundry room was flodded with watery bubbles. Even though all the other washers were full, I knew that somehow this was my fault. So I walk into the laundry room and standing there with her hands gripping her hair in a great amount of distress was our cleaning lady. I immediatly said "it's my fault, im so sorry" without even inspecting. once I looked at the washers, i could see that the washer with my one t-shirt was the one puking bubbles. I reached inside, rang out my shirt, and threw it in a dryer. I offered to help but the cleaning lady as beyond the point of human interaction and i mean...what could i really do anyway? So she kinda half smiled at me and said she'd take care of it, and i went on my way. 40 minutes later when i went back to get my laundry from the dryer, the laundry room was all cleaned up, a little slippery, but not a disaster area as it once was. even though i felt bad, i couldn't help but wonder how the hell she cleaned it up so fast! Well anyway, i was the first... and probably the last to flood the laundry room...moral of the story? small amount of clothing equales a small amount of soap. JOTT THIS DOWN IN A NOTEBOOK SOMEWHERE!!
