What day to start taking the pill?

I have decided to go on Yaz strictly to control my periods (dont need BC, my husband has been snipped). My periods are really heavy and long (7 days) and frequent (every 25 days)and painful. Anyway, my question is, what day should I start it? The directions say either the first day of my next priod or the Sunday after it. I actually would like to push off my period about a week next month since it is scheduled to come the first day of my vacation. So if I dont start the pill until a week after my period starts this month, should that delay it for next month? Is that bad to do?
