If you were a foreigner in america and you heard the word "restroom" for the first time, i could see how you might assume it was a room where you could just kick back and relax for a while, to gather your thoughts and take it easy. But I should warn you that this is one of those words where the name doesn't really describe what it does. In America, the restroom is actually a room where we "do our business." Hopefully this will save you some embarrassment friend. And welcome to America.
