Hello Superstars,
Sorry, for my abscence. I was attending a leadership conference for four days, which was complete fun. While I was away, I did think of you all and this blog. I feel after my acne story I am getting more personal with you. Now, I want to show more of personality and my realness. I decided to start a series of the "Things I Strongly Dislike". This is going to be a never ending series because I have so many dislikes and I will continue to have more. It's completely nature. So, let's getting started with the #1 Thing I Strongly Dislike.

| Perfect example of how girls look at me when I do not have a tampon. |
1. Girls asking for tampons
I strongly believe that every girl should be more than willing to help their own gender out , and I mostly follow my belief. Until, girls act like total divas.
We have all been at school, and suddenly felt signs of our time of the month A. K. A Mother Nature attacking us. Most of us have been in the position where we had to ask a fellow female peer for a pad or tampon. This past school year a number of girls have asked me for tampons. "Sorry, I don't," I would say."But I have pads."
Personally, I do not find it necessary to wear tampons. Every since I have been on birth control, my blood flow on periods has been extremely light. I went from wearing two pads to only needing one. Big difference. Also, I'm a pessimist when it comes to medical information. I always look for the worst horror stories or scenarios that involves tampns. The stories I have found is the root cause of my fear of sticking anything into my flower area.
But how can you tell that to someone that wants and needs a tampon. You don't. So, I have to deal with them rolling their eyes or giving me a smart comment like ," How could you not have tampon" (Umm honey, shouldn't you be asking yourself that) or "Ugh nevermind then". What is the big problem with using a pad for a few hours until you get home? I mean you are at school with a period and without a tampon. You should be grateful that someone is offering you a pad, so you would not have to worry about bleeding through onto your clothes. There is no need for an eyeroll or attitude. I am just a girl trying to help another girl out. You either take it with a smile or kindly decline.
Be Kind Superstars,
Sarah E.
