I Got mine in summer when I was 11. I told my friend and she told (With my permision) my older sister, and my mom. I told her because I didn't have the guts to tell them. I was swimming in the ocean before and went to change my pants when I noticed.
OMG! Second last day of grade 6 (This was a couple weeks ago, I'm only twelve), I got a unexpected visitor.
Usually, I'm okay on the schedule, end of month, beginning of month, but that day was random.
So I have a boyfriend. Kinda. We haven't kissed, on the lips, but he does have a thing for kissing my head and giving me tingles... *Gazes off*
Anyways, I live on Vancouver Island. And my class went to Vancouver, So we had to take a ferry, an hour and a half long ferry!
I went to the bathroom and found a little red spot on my underwear. I had a quarter in my pocket so I went and bought one because I didn't carry a purse yet.
They were the crappy, cheapies. I left the bathroom, not worrying because I'm almost always light.
Later I came back and got a tampon. Also a cheapie. ,
That's not the bad part.
So we went to a movie while we were there, and I sat next to one of my best guy friends and my boyfriend. I fell asleep in my boys arms. When I woke up I went to go and change my tampon.
OMG!
My tampon filled up and slid out while I slept.
I was on heavy mode I guess because in the 45 minutes the movie went on, it soaked through my underwear AND my light blue shorts.
It didn't go on my legs or anything, but I didn't even noticed till I got to the bathroom.
I flipped.
I didn't have my jacket. I didn't have a change of pants. And none of my friends had the same size pants even if they did, they didn't have any either.
I was wearing a hat. I took it off and kinda hid it in front. I passed my Boys best friends mom. She kept giving me dirty looks because I was holding Joes (My Boy <3 ) hand. So I passed her and I freaking out because she is glaring at me. She walked beside me and went into the bathroom. I kept walking the whole time, ducking my head.
Then I saw two of my friends. Joe and his bestie (The son of the glaring mom) asked me if I wanted to look for their friend Dave. I smiled and acted normal. I hurried to the coat rack and grabbed my jac
ket. When I grabbed it, I saw the mom of the guy I fell asleep next to. She smiled to me and looked around the corner. Her son was coming around the corner and she went and distracted him. I don't know if she saw, or if that is just a mom ability. (Love her)
I tied it around my waist and hurried to find my female friends.
I told them and my friend (Who had her period) said "Oh, Haley..." And she felt so bad because she knew how it to have a bloody pad. She could only imagine bloody pants!
My other friend laughed. Can't wait til she gets hers....
Anyways, I got a chocolate bar (Dark, helps with cramps) and Vitamin water on the ferry. (Great tip!!! Vitamin Water! Best thing ever! Helps with cramps and sickness and dizziness and headache and sore musacles!! AMAZING! )
The worst thing, I had to wear the pants the whole time! For about 8 hours or more. IN PUBLIC! Ahhhhh!!!!!!!!!! It was horrible and embarresing. And it takes alot to embarrass me!
OMG! Maybe he noticed (Joe), it would explain how he was really sweet and kept kissing me. Omg... I'm so embarrassed and giddy at the same time... (Giddy because he likes me and he is so sweet and amazing and loving...)
It was terrible.
Maybe I'lllaugh in a couple of years, but it was like a month and a half ago. And I think my boy saw it! At least he isn't the 'gossip' type. I am, unless it's something like that, then I don't. The only time Joe gossips, is to me. He tells me everything <3 <3 <3 <3
BTDubs... (Love that saying) The pics shows how to use it. My hand is the vagina. That sounds weird. Hope it helps!
(I have the Tampax Radiant plastic Regulars. They have rounded aplicaters so it won't poke you. I had popped the tampon out of it so it doesn't show, but the applicater will pull out when you push the little plastic thing in.)
