I think my first period was really strange. I was on holiday in India, and after a long drive to the city of Coimbatore, I arrived at the hotel and rushed to the toilet to pee. when I pulled my pants down, I didn’t notice the blood until after i was done peeing, and i was so scared and excited! my mum had told me about menstruation, so I knew, but I actually had all the details from the internet, lol. Anyway, I called my mom, and she was busy so I called again, and when she came, she was, like, ‘oh.’ and then she showed me how to stick a pad on my panties, and she did it for me the first time. I was really down cause I was supposed to go swimming with my cousin in our hotel pool! It kinda spoiled my holiday, but I’m glad I got it cause my BFF got it a few months back and I was a bit jealous, to tell you the truth. And now we’re equal once again, and I can love her with all my heart!
