RED

It's that time of the month.. the time when a woman's world is drenched in pain, light headedness and the color red. (Hence the title of this blog post). It freaking sucks like crazy.  And that was an understatement. The pain is incredible and it hurts to move in any direction, which makes life very difficult right now, especially since this semester I've got an aquatics class. Speaking of this semester, I've yet to talk about the classes I've managed to squeeze into my agenda. I have, like I mentioned two sentences ago, an aquatic fitness class, concert choir, classical music appreciation, math 155 and last but not least, a speech class. My swim class is ultra fun, especially because my boyfriend is in that class with me (he is in every class of mine except for my math class.. but that's only because of the fact that he's taking the highest math course that's available here at the JC and that's a million levels above me..). and it's also enjoyable because I can get a workout without the sweat, without the over heating, and I feel a lot more comfortable in the water. My choir class is great this semester because we will be singing some Morten Lauridson songs (one of which I've sung in high school, "O Nata Lux") and it's cool to know that my boyfriend is in choir with me and enjoying it even though he's not had any previous singing experience with choirs (or anyone for that matter). And it looks like he's having fun. Oh god the pain! I feel like someone is stabbing me in the right ovary with a paring knife! DX and now the pain is everywhere below my belly button and above my thighs. Yay for being female!! (AKA: FML) I am so not going to swim today. Man.. even my butt hurts. Well, it's time to start walking to my swim class.. I'm not looking forward to sitting in the bleachers for an hour watching people do (and enjoy) something that I love doing. It's about 20 minutes until the hour, but man, with this pain and being doped up on allergy meds it's going to take me a very long time to amble my way over to the pool.

Peace, pain and all the red in the world.
