You\u2019re getting used to the pains, the pads, and the predicting. I like to consider myself a fast learner, so I had the changing pads and pain relief down to a science. My main issue was trying to track my cycle and knowing exactly when I was going to start my period. I was in the 6th grade, and my teacher was known all around school for throwing the biggest classroom parties for every holiday you could think of. At the time I had a crush on a guy and prayed the whole week that he\u2019d ask me to dance with him. I planned my outfit including my favorite top and light-washed jeans. I wasn\u2019t feeling any pain and had my period earlier in the month, so I thought everything was fine and dandy. Little did I know, my period wanted to make its own little appearance at the party. I was at the snack table with my best friend setting<!--more--> up all of the yummy treats when my crush came over and shyly asked me for a dance. Of course, I was screaming and doing cartwheels on the inside while trying to keep my cool and act like I was the hottest thing walking on two feet on the outside.

As soon as I got really into the dance, my best friend ran over to me, acting like the school was on fire and whispered, \u201cI\u2019m going to get behind you. Walk to the bathroom and do NOT look back\u201d so I obliged. She broke the news to me that I had my period &amp; it was ALL over the back of my jeans. I was afraid that everyone saw and refused to go back in there. Luckily, she was able to head to the teacher, tell her what happened, and got a pass to the nurse\u2019s office allowing me to go home for the rest of the day. I still wonder to this day if anyone saw.<\/p>\n<p>By Nandi F.<br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/officialgirlsonlyclub.tumblr.com\/\" target=\"http:\/\/officialgirlsonlyclub.tumblr.com\/\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Girls Only Club<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>As with many girls, I\u2019m sure, the first few years of having your menstrual cycle can be very tortuous.
