My period story is a happy story. I was in grade 9 when I got my first period. Everyone in my class had started their period and I was constantly worried about me starting to bleed. It was sunday afternoon, I went to the loo to pee and saw my hipsters were all red. I shouted with a smile on my face and called my mom saying "yes! I’m bleeding!"
I got a little more attention than usual from my mom. She would come every 2 hours asking if it was painful and if I was okay. The next day, I whispered in the my friends' ears that I got my period yesterday. Luckily, I’m one of those blessed souls who don’t suffer from pain during their period.
