My family say that I am weird am I

When washing clothes I buy detergent and powder gain preferably. I put both in before the clothes and let the water run then I put the clothes in and then a little bit more powder and detergent . After I let it wash for 1 minute open the lid and let the clothes soak for 10 minutes with a timer turned on lol . Then I close the lid and let them continuing washing for the remaining of the duration
