SMKTM: 5 blocks, 1 toilet

Interesting, how my school, a school with 5 blocks, 2 of them 4 storeys high, and 2 of them 3 storeys high, with a total of more or less 1890 students, has only got 1 toilet for girls and 1 for guys (btw, they've closed the unisex toilet. The school must've finally come to their senses over that.)

It wasnt so bad at first, when the girls' toilet was washed regularly and was in quite good condition. The doors and locks worked fine, the walls were quite free of graffiti, the toilet tanks, flushes, and pipies functioned well, except for one that rains (the tank overflows and drips on the user below), and the smell was actually quite OK.

Since the water cut last year, the condition of the toilet took a turn for the worse. There was no water in the toilet for a month, and the toilet sure stank. Eventhough the water has returned, the toilet never 'recovered' from it's 'sickness' up till now. Instead, it just steadily got worse.

Now, the toilet bowls are clogged up with water bottles and used pads; the mirrors all broken and gone; the walls covered in crude and stupid graffiti; the toilet cubicles' doors very tight, making the doors very difficult to open or close, and its locks all spoilt; the sinks clogged with tissue, paper, plastic bags, and the occasional chicken bones, and the sides colourful with water coloue paints carelessly splashed around by the art students; and the sink pipes below disappeared (no idea how), so the water in the sinks splash onto the floor and onto out feet.

Think that's bad? Just you wait, I left the worst for last. On the 8th of March, I guess an animal, or someone with very bad aim was purging in the girl's toilet. THe toilet was TOTALLY GROSS! Almost every toilet cubicle had a dark brown splatter of shit all over the sides of the toilet bowl. Shit was everywhere except IN the toilet bowl.

It amazes me, how anyone, exspecially GIRLS can be SO messy! so unhygenic! so gross! I wonder why do they have to spray or write crude stuff all over the walls. Don't they have anything better to do? And why did that purging fella have to go splatter her shit in EVERY cubicle? Note that there's about 10 cubicbles there. And if she just HAD to purge in every cubicle cant she wash it clean after using it? That was certainly the WORST toilet experience i ever had and i hope to NEVER see anything like it again.
