Oh ya... Yesterday was the last day for Blood Donation organised by Singapore Red Cross Society at Victoria Junior College. It was held at the Language Room near the Scrabble Board in VJC and i went to donate my blood along with Kuok Ming, Jia Yi and Hua Lin at 9am.
At first i suspected Jia Yi of being underweight (not suitable to donate) but she's over the least requirements except that her veins cant be seen. Lol... The staff says she no veins...
Then left Kuok, Hua lin and me. We registered at the counter and proceed to the checking station afterwards. Hua Lin was rejected due to family's history? (she said) and Kuok Ming was rejected as he was sick a few days/weeks ago. =P
Then left me alone. I was feeling very dull when i went to check whether i had enough iron in my blood and i passed. Nobody was there to accompany me. But at least the staffs there are very friendly and funny lol. We chatted and joked during the "dialysis" process. (looks to me that i am taking dialysis treatment instead of donating blood haha)
Oh ya... the anaesthetic needle was quite pain at first then the nurse inserted a thick thick tubing into the hole and it was so so gross... i turned my head around not to look at it until the tube was covered up by the tape. They gave me a heart (soft toy?) to squeeze my blood out into the small empty packet (450ml).
After the whole process, i was feeling alright and acting as usual except that my writing hand, left hand, tends to shiver when i apply force on my pen. (I donate my blood with my right hand) Then i was walking out of the room when i saw Sophie. She was there too to donate blood. Haha... what a coincidence.
After a few hours, Terry and Sally went to donate blood too. In our class, only 3 of us donate, or in other words, only 3 of us CAN donate,i suppose.
PS: The iron tablet the staffs gave are nothing use. I can consume iron by my daily supplements of milk. XD
