So I was 13 years old, and my period had come.

I knew there was a word that started with m that meant 'I'm on my period', which is menstruation.

But I forgot the word.

So I found my mum to tell her I'd gotten my period.

"Mum, I'm masturbating." I said with a dead serious expression.

"What?" my mum said in shock.

"I'm masturbating!" I repeated.

"Do you mean menstruating?"

"Oh, THAT'S the word!" I said as my mum gave a sigh of relief. "So what does masturbating mean, then?"

"That's a conversation for another time!" my mum stated, obviously a bit shaken.

So yea.

My forgetful ass forgot the word and nearly gave my poor mum a heart attack.

But now we just look back on it and laugh.
