Bandit cleaning

Well, as i have mentioned before, mold has inhabited my living quarters.  Now, i keep my windows open when i am not home and keep things well ventilated.  Its not the greatest thing to do everyday and its not very welcoming to come home after work to a freezing cold house, but if thats going to keep the mold down, so be it.  I'll just deal with it.

A couple weeks ago i realized that there were icicles and a large dirty fuzzy puddle in the corner behind my fridge.  I decided to tackle it.  So i had to have the right gear:


So hot, i know.  Anyways, this is what was hiding behind the fridge.

 ugh, disgusting!


Icicle village ;)  
they melted a little.

I won't bother you with the other problems i have.... this was bad enough.  After i cleaned this, i noticed that the area behind my washer had mold too.  So i tried to clean that.  My washer kinda sits in a hole and has a drain by it, so i could lift it out of there, which meant i had very little space to move around to get to the wall.  I don't understand how Koreans keep things clean here.  When i was cleaning the walls behind my washer i felt like i was being born all over again.  I had to fit in tiny little spaces and try and get in and out of them somehow.  Moments like those I'm thankful I live by myself.   Because i would have looked really ridiculous trying to clean such an awkward space and if anyone actually saw we both be laughing for a while and then id fall into the pile of mold.  :P
