I remember lying on my bed covers in front of my TV watching the The Inbetweeners series for the first time... Well that certainly was a day full of firsts!
I was halfway though season two, when all of a sudden I felt my whole body go intensely warm for a couple seconds. Afterwards I felt a cold and wet sensation as if I had sat on a spilt drink.
I stood up and assessed what had happened; my very first period. I remember feeling a little relieved as I was soon approaching starting my penultimate year of secondary school.
It happened in the summer holidays thankfully before going back to school. Plus I had some pads already to keep in case. I was about 13 or 14 when it happened and felt like a late bloomer.
You can say that I will never forgot that day. Now every time I think of or rewatch The Inbetweeners I can't help but laugh a little.
