You don't shower!

What is up with some of these people who always seem to spray too much cologne or perfume. I was sitting in the third floor of the Science building. The few times I have been sitting on that floor, the place seems deserted. Today, I was sitting in the hallway for about an hour. Only one girl and three guys passed by at different times.

When the girl passed, there was no scent in the air, but when a professor and two other students went by, they stunk the entire place. I had a stomachache after the encounter. My little sister is also one of those people who like to wear the bottle of perfume. I always tell her no to wear much, but she never listens.

When I first began to use cologne, the most I would spray myself was three times. After a couple of people told me that the scent was too strong, I began to gauge myself. I guess that happens with every rookie. Some days I would wear three, two or one spray. Depending on who was around me. Through trial and error, I came to the conclusion that once spray was strong enough. Even though I could not detect the scent, I did notice the smell when laundry day came around. I could smell the cologne as I separated the clothes.

Some say cologne is French for “too lazy to bathe.” Maybe that’s why some people wear too much, even after they are told they stink.

I know cologne is not French for “too lazy to bathe,” but the saying fits perfectly.

  2. My youngest brother (in 10th grade) buys cologne from Ambercrombie that costs about $75 a bottle. This is insane. When I was in high school, and probably most of us too, there was Axe. Axe was all the rage and it costs like $10.

  3. I hate sitting next to those people in class. It feels like you are being choked!! I think strong cologne is better than horrendous body odor though.
