Not getting your period is alarming but charging period cycles is the bitch. Most especially when, you're like me, your period strikes without warning, without notice (well, there was notice but then it waned and when I've accepted that it has gone, it decided to just pounce on me). It just has a freaking life of it it's own. And it loves tricking me into thinking that either it's not coming or we're done. BUT NO! I just wanted to complain about my PEROID once again because it decided to come on an opportune time, while I was helping out in Marikina (one of the places really hit by typhoon Ondoy). But there are a few silver linings (VERY THIN, I might add). While J was driving towards our first location, he noticed that the pick up was about to overheat so we made an emergency stop to Petron. D then decided it was time to get our first bathroom break and told me that I should do that same lest we do a repeat of the last Soup Kitchen (wherein my bladder was about to burst into kingdom come). I decided that even though I didn't need to go, I would have to make a little visit. Well well well...look who decided to pop in? Good thing, D brought extra sanitary napkins. I'm not a prissy princess but that night just took a turn for the royalty in me. It was due to the fact that I was already grossed out at myself because periods make you feel gross all over. Then there was the mud. The mud killed me. I became irritable and uncomfortable hundred fold. Imagine, you have blood and mud in your mind. Then came dysmenorrhea, back pains and leg pains. I didn't even mind the unruliness or the pushing or the clamoring of the outsiders for more egg, I just didn't want to deal with the mud and the blood.
But all in all it was great to have helped people without even knowing who they are. Thank you for saying thank you. I really appreciate it but I really didn't know how to respond.
