I used an electric clothes dryer yesterday. Initially, I was pretty skeptical about the whole thing, would the machine really be able to dry my clothes like, totally dry without leaving any weird smell? Would my clothes get burnt, damaged or shrunk by the long duration of tumbling and artificial heating?
The weird smell thought is probably an influence from Mom.
I have to admit that given a choice at that time, I would still prefer drying my clothes under the ever realiable sun which I have done for the longest time but unfortunately, such facilities do not exist, so, it was either the dryer or display my collection of underwear around the house.
Tens of minutes of worrying later, the drying was done.
Needless to say, every single piece of clothing was warm and totally dry. Right at that moment I remove my clothes from the dryer, I wanted to express my excitement out loud but since there were others around, I had to maintain my composure. There might be a chance that my widely opened eyes already gave me away.
Deep within me, I could hardly contain my jakun-ness as the following phrases went on and on and on in my mind. Woooaaahhhh!! It's freaking dry, no smell!! OMG!!! No damages!! No dampness, no moisture!!! Amazing!!! Not even badly crumpled!! *proceeds to touch and feel and smell the clothings while returning to the room*
And that, ladies and gentlemen, is Jed's true account of using an electric clothes dryer for the very first time.
While putting on one of my t-shirts, I did feel as though it shrunk a little or perhaps that's just me. Don't tell me I expanded that much in just one day, nonsense.
