Wow, what are the odds... well, 1 in 25 I guess, but still. Goddammit!!
How can I will my body to start my period early? Ugh. Of all the worst days in the world for my period to be due, it's the day of my comprehensive exam. asdflkjsadfkfshsdfn@#$&*$#!!! 90% of the time, day 1 of my period leaves me a crying, doubled-over in pain, mind-foggy, befuddled mess of a human being. My joints ache, my muscles hurt in the weirdest possible way... I tried to describe it to Radek by saying "it's not that all my muscles 'hurt'... they feel nauseous! Like my feet actually feel like they are going to throw up right now"...if that makes any sense. The one day of my life where my entire job is essentially on the line if I am unable to dazzle a committee of 5 professors with my brilliance for 3 solid hours. FUCK!
