:: periods SUX ::

i HATE HATE HATE periods!!!!!!!!!!!!

oh my gosh they are the most aggravating, annoying, frustrating, PAINFUL experience!!!!!!

:: to all my frenz - yUpzzz i'm sure you all can understand why periods are ESP such a pain in the neck arse and everywhere else for me.......

:: to all the clueless souls out there going *huh* - let me enlighten you on why periods are such a PAIN for me...... LITERALLY....................

[...on periods...]

1) when a girl gets her period and you see her clutching her middle, do NOT get on her already frayed nerves by asking a DUMB (albeit "concerned") question like: "are you ok?"

2) when a girl is going green and pale and weak and frail because of the seizures and severity of her cramps, do NOT launch into a whollllllle episode of how you GUYS havta serve the nation for two years etcetcetc. in case your dense and obtuse brain cannot see, there is NO connection between the two and just goes to show how insensitive you are. gender wars and issues can be waged in full battle order (if you so like) some Other time.

3) when a girl gets her period, guys. Please. if you have never been sensitive all your life, you CAN be tolerant for once. we girls DO try not to let PMS get to us, but thats how Nature and Biology works, so get off our backs abt using PMS as an excuse for our moodswings and tantrums. we don't get on YoUr backs when Nature makes YOU "stand at attention" at most-uncalled for situations do we.

4) we understand you feel very helpless sitting there with your hands by your side, cringing everytime we groan abt the cramps. but we DO appreciate you sitting there with us, even if you're not doing anything. Really. you're doing a great job just sitting there - you could throw in a hug and a kiss every now and then to make us feel better. :D

5) when we tell you we have bad cramps, we HAVE bad cramps. the most insulting remark you can make is to say "oh really?". *grrrrrrr*

and lastly, for pete's sake, why are you so squemish about the word "period" anyway?? we are in the 21st century, in mighty pragmatic economical SINGAPORE!! "period" is NOT a taboo word, is it? sheesh. it's not like it's a sex issue, or something similar that gets people tied up in giggles.

ok. i'm done ranting about my lousy period. i still hate it. i don't feel like i'm in touch with my femininity when i get my period at all. and no girl is as cheery as those lousy sanitary pads Ads on TV during their period.

my cramps hurt like hell. i cant walk properly. my legs feel wobbly. i'm bedridden. i feel blue blue blue. i look green and pale. i feel HORRIBLE!!!!!! aRGHZzzz! *go away period!!!!!* *POUT*
