What a long week. Thank goodness it's over and it's half term. I really need this break.
Monday was actually a good day. I was still high from the weekend. Felt more in love than ever, it's wonderful. Mum, cousin and I went into town after school.
Tuesday was my birthday and I lost the necklace Njan gave me for Valentine's day last year, so I really quite upset about that. I was also having one of my sweaty days and spent the whole day feeling self-conscious and sticky, unable to wait til I could get home so that I could have a shower. When I got home, my sister and her kids were here. I love to see them, but I really needed a shower and I felt quite bad.
Wednesday, I had a huge argument with my mum about whether or not I should be allowed to go to Njan's house. Got really really angry, totally blew my top and spent a couple of hours afterwards basking in terribly loud music, hyperventilating, crying hysterically and shaking.
Thursday was just long. Another sticky day. Managed to get under the impression that last lesson was going to be a nice relaxing library lesson but was it? No, of course not. It was Games, ie. netball in the cold wind and rain. Mum, cousin and I went to town after school.
Today - Friday - realised exactly what had been making me feel so bad. Yes, children, I'm female, and I have to put up with it. Got awfully bad stomach cramps so escaped into the sick room at school. They gave me a gorgeously warm hot-water bottle which made me feel a lot better. But then it cooled down. And I didn't. I got really, really hot and started to sweat like hell. I got dizzy. I splashed water over myself. I kept collapsing. I could barely control my legs. I wanted to die. I almost completely lost self-control and sat down on the floor sobbing and I think I might have started shouting stuff, but I'm not sure. I have never felt worse than that in my life.
So I got the secretary to phone mum up and she took me home. I had gone yellow. After some food and a change of clothes, I'm a lot better now.
