I remember in elementary a girl I didn't like (same age as me) got her period and it was gossip between my friend group because it was so shocking that she got her period as none of the kids I knew had those and that it was "adult" type things.
For a LONGGG time I wanted to have my period start in the shower because of that one horror movie Carrie or something, so everytime I showered I would check between my legs for blood and got disappointed
I got my first period when I was 11, got excited seeing the blood when I wiped because I thought omg im an adult now! threw up everywhere on the floor later that day. Anyways, I thought I would be able to skip school because my sisters were able too whenever they got their period,
WRONG
Periods are lame they suck its only hyped when you're a child and haven't gotten them yet I'm just now getting out of that mentality that periods are embarrassing + hygiene products should be hidden (unused ones, ofc...)
Anyways , this story brought me back to my childhood and puberty experience
