First Time Bleeding

No, not exactly what you dirty minds are thinking of. I went for my first blood donation yesterday in school and oh boy, it sure feels great ! =) It has been some time since I last blogged too ! Life has been crazy since school started 3 weeks ago !

It was pretty much an impromptu thing since it wasn’t part of my busy schedule at all. My friends and I saw that they were doing a donation drive in the school library and decided to go for it ! I’m obviously a first-timer (can’t you tell from my excitement?) since I always had problems meeting the minimum weight limit (45kg) and lucky me, managed to meet the mark by 1kg yesterday ! (lol)  So off we went to donate blood.

It was quite a painless (trust me, Brazilian waxing was way more painful than this) and quick process. It was like ‘poke – suck-go’ kind of thing (sounds wrong), took me around 10-15 minutes before I see that empty bag filled with my gorgeous blood. (haha)

I liked how friendly the nurses were and how they tried to calm first timers down by distracting them. Though I’m more of a sadist and prefer to watch the needle and gets excited over blood being drawn out of me. (haha) I think I’ve been watching way too much Vampires Diaries…was hoping (hot hot hot )Damon Salvatore would be there to suck my blood too…or robbing the entire blood bank right before my eyes. (lol!)

I thought it’s pretty cute for them to bring such adorable bandages too ! Felt like a primary school kid arguing over the color we wanted for our arms. I honestly wish more people would donate blood since it’s a good thing and who knows when you might need those blood someday ! (touch wood)

So spread the word and go down to the Blood Bank or any donation drive to do the same, or just drop me message if you’re interested in going down with me in November (you can only donate once every 3 months) !! =)
