The past few days I have been through hell week and put on The Best Christmas Pageant Ever twice. I made it without losing too much sleep. And only had one pre-show nervous meltdown (shoutout to my guy friend for holding me, and I'm sorry again for crying and getting makeup on your shirt...) However On Monday, legit fifteen minutes to show time, I went to the bathroom and found that mother nature decided then was a good time to start my period. It had been 50 days since my last one, so this has been miserable. And the worst part was that my costume included tight, khaki pants. So I had to use tampons, which give me panic attacks sometimes. It was pretty awful, especially since I got cast as the lead, and I've got to turn my back on the audience quite often. Straight up, what is my life. In other news, I just want to say shoutout to other girls who are willing to help you out when your period comes unexpectedly. They're the real mvps. As stressed as BCPE made me, I loved every moment of it and will miss this cast. I can't wait for Aladdin in the spring. I was cast as a harem girl, and I look forward to being the most asexual concubine. Hopefully next time, mother nature will be kind enough to wait for my monthly....
