The Red Stuff.

Today wouldn't have been so horrible if it weren't for...

THE RED STUFF



So I was already running late to get to the bus. I woke up at 3:00 AM planning on doing this report that I saved til the last minute. I was on the laptop. Getting agitated because the computer was being so slow. And then I started feeling like I was gonna faint or something. This happened to me a lot over the summer. I figured it was because I had been on the computer so long and the radiation was doing something to me. I set the laptop down and started making my way next to my parents room. Just in case I faint or have a seizure. They'll at least hear me drop to the ground and call 9-1-1 or something. I started breathing deeply, trying to make myself not pass out. 

Then I started going crazy. I was tired. I wanted to go to sleep so bad. I saw my laptop in the living room. In my mind I was thinking that the laptop was giving off this deadly radiation. My brother and sister were sleeping there. I didn't want the laptop to give them cancer or something. I took a towel from the bathroom, put it over my mouth and nose, and tried to run into the living room and get the laptop. But no, the faint feeling came back. I ran back to the outside of my parents' room. 

This time, I had to be brave. I took the towel in my hand, held my breath, and ran. [Not literally RAN but I moved quickly.] Took the laptop and dropped it in my bedroom. I was too scared to even turn it off. No. Instead I went back into the living room. I was still feeling like I needed to faint. It took me like an hour just to go back to med. This meant I had only about 2 hours to sleep. So when my phone alarm woke me up at 5:50 AM, I went right back to bed.

It felt like I closed my eyes for a second and opened them up. My mom came barging in telling my to wake-up. It was like 6:18 AM. The bus came around 7:00, earlier than that. 

After I finished taking a shower, getting ready, and stuff. I asked my sister to do my hair. Which took off more of the time I didn't have. I scoffed down some Cap'n Crunch. But at this point, my stomach hurt SO bad, I felt like pooping. But I couldn't because there was no time left. To make matters worse, it was raining outside. [In fact, it rained all day. And I think it's still raining even til now. And it's 4:52 PM.] 

I was planning on pooping at school but that didn't happen. My friends always try to make me go with them to the emo hallway. My friend Kate Lynn [yes, separated like that.] is obsessed with emos. [Remember Bushy? She goes to the emo hallway everyday just to see him. And when he's not there, she makes us go back outside where the freshmen usually hang.] So I never got to poop. But the poop feeling went away. I'm not sure when I realized The Red Stuff was attacking until maybe 2nd Period. Probably even before that. 

I've come to realize that WHENEVER I'm starting my period, I feel constipated. And when I get my period, I get the whole package. With the cramps. Cramps and constipation is NOT a good mixture. Just saying. 
 
So yeah, I decided to take care of it before lunch. [Which is in the middle of 3rd period.] I didn't have any pads. But luckily, I was wearing a pantyliner so I didn't leak or anything. When I saw the mess in my underwear, I was horrified. It was brownish and all over my new undies. But it wasn't that bad really. Not as bad as I thought it was. I stuffed cheap tissue paper into my pants and went on my way to lunch.

Okay, I gotta tell you something. The lunch room is friggin' OVERCROWDED. By the time I got my lunch, almost all the seats were taken. And the only other place to sit is the Senior Den. If you didn't hear me correctly, I'm gonna say it again. THE SENIOR DEN. Which. Is. For. SENIORS. The only way you could get in there is if you have bruh or sis that's a senior or something. Or if you're cool with a senior. Which I was not. 

Luckily, me and my friend, Justine, got a seat somewhere. But guess what? I had a little cut on the side of my thumb. Like a hangnail or whatever they call it. I think I got it from the nail polish I was using last night. I accidentally put too much on a cotton ball and I was only using it for one nail. [My thumb. Which was painted red. It was the only one I was not too lazy to do.] And guess what I was having? Chicken Tenders w/ Fries w/ some Red Stuff topped over it. And by Red Stuff, I mean Hot Sauce. O.M.G. My thumb was burning for a whole period. I barely ever use Hot Sauce and the day I decide to, I get a hangnail.

>:( I suffered for one more period. Personal Fitness. My cramps came back worse than ever. I heard that doing exercise helped with cramps. So I was waiting for the teacher lady to go make us change to walk around the track field. But remember. It was freakin' pouring outside. And the retarded disabled kids used the small gym. And some other class used the big gym. So we had to sit there, reading about friggin' F.I.T. or what not. [Frequency, Intensity, Time] And to tell you the truth, I really like the Personal Fitness book. I love the pictures of kids dressed in ugly clothes doing embarrassing exercises. But no. I couldn't even enjoy the funny pictures. It was torture.

Everything else after that isn't really important. I watched the Tyra Show. It was about transgendered kids. Wasn't as interesting as I thought it would've been. The kids didn't really say much. I couldn't blame them though. They were kids. You know, short attention spans and what not. And I took a Motrin pill not too long ago. So it's all good.
