Ideally you should shower at least twice a week and after any physical exercise. You may get away with once every week but any longer than that and you will develop BO. Once month or year is definitely not recommended.
__Should I Shower once or twice a day?__
-Showering once a day is acceptable. (In the case that you don't much physical activity or labourous work, showering once every two days is fine.) Often a combination of daytime exercise (biking to university, school or work, for example) and evening social activities suggest showering twice. Experiance suggests that humans are not soluble, so you don't have to worry about being washed away.

__How Do I Shower?__
First, get yourself a face cloth (also known as a flannel), a sponge or a loufe. Beginners may find that a face cloth is easier and more intuitive to use. Find out from your flat mates what the deal with soap or body wash is. In some flats everyone uses communal soap or body wash, in others everyone has there own or body wash. It is considered very inappropriate behavior to use someone else's personal soap or body wash without asking. If in doubt, get you own.

+Deodorant aims to reduce BO. Anti-Persperant aims to reduce persperation. Many products do both. Not all products work equally well for all people. In particular cyclists who cycle to school/work are often better to go for a ``Sports'' brand. These brands have fewer volitile active ingrediants.
