An Embarrassing Moment
I experienced an embarrassing situation in
my school. It was my first day when I had my period when I was
13 years old. This moment was terrible because everybody looked
at my blue pants.
When I went to lunch, my friend said, “You
have menstruated because your pants are red in the back.”
I didn’t know. I went to the bathroom and I checked my pants.
It was horrible for me. I waited for 20 minutes in the bathroom.
My friend said, “Are you okay?” I said, “I’m
embarrassed because everybody looked at my pants.” In this
moment my self-esteem was very low because I thought when I walked
everybody was mocking me. This was an embarrassing moment.
Then, I went to the office and I told the
secretary that I needed to call my mother because I had my period
and my pants were red in the back. And the secretary said, “It
is necessary for you to speak to the principal of the school.”
I said, I didn’t want to talk to the secretary because I
was too embarrassed to speak to her. I had my period.”
The first time is terrible, but now
my self-esteem is not low. My mother explained that it was normal
for women. Everything is okay.
