Today is blood donation day! so exciting, though it kind of departed from my mind till i saw it the set-up at the study room after school. heh. Considering that I am 18 now! I don't need my mum to sign any form. hoho. =DDD

sooo... me and con went to donate blood after I finished AQ after sch today. Both of us got rejected last year so haha it's scary and exciting to try again. LOL. But, con got rejected again cause of low iron level but I made it all the way to the seat. hahaha... =D

I don't know why but I find it quite a funny experience. I was trying not to laugh when the doctor was measuring my blood pressure and when the worker there was going to insert the needle into my vein! hahaha.

ok. ultimate question of the day! PAIN NOT?
errrr... no... LOL. ok the most most painful part would be the stapling part where they do a mini test of your blood and the injection they give before they finally insert the bigger needle to transfer blood into the bag.
but then again the stapling part maybe it's painful to the extent of a red ant's bite???
then the injection was painful when it first went in and when the fluid was injected, but after that the pain was gone totally.
AND, the biggest needle that went in to transfer the blood wasn't pain at all, like almost no feeling. haha

okok... here comes the HIGHLIGHT!
during the mini check-up, doctor said my blood pressure only just passed so she requested i drank some/alot of water before the blood transfer because i might feel giddy afterwards. And I feel totally fine through the whole process when my blood was oozing out from my vein into the bag. Until when the bag was full and the person was going to remove everything, thennnn... the next thing I know, I was lying flat and some 3 people surrounded me, telling me to rest and not move.

Apparently, I fainted.
haha.

I never fainted before, so I guess this experience was quite interesting and I somehow find it funny too, although I kind of scared the people that was around at that time.
When she was going the remove the stuff, I just started to feel a little giddy then I just blacked out. It happened so fast, I didn't realise I fainted. It feels like those kind of times whereby you doze off in class and you didn't realise you dozed off until you woke up. Just that I was usually half awake when I doze off in class but just now when I fainted, I was totally unaware of whatever that was happening around me.

Con said the person asked me, "Miss, are you ok? Miss, are you ok?" But I made no response at all, so she hurriedly called the people to help and got me to lie down.
(I think I totally lost consciousness, I had totally no idea what happened.)

I only realised after a while and confirmed with con that I fainted. tskk. so malu. lol. Then she still asked me if I saw Jesus when I blacked out. lol. hahaha. Anyway, con was so motherly cause she made sure I rest enough and remained sitted down till colour returned on my face. I had to drink alot alot of water to replenish my body. I got oreo biscuits and raisins to eat from the reception outside too. Con was very nice to send me home too, in case I faint again on my way home. heh.

In conclusion, today is quite an interesting day because I fainted and I never faint before. Not that I wish to faint again! lol. Good thing I was on sitted on the chair when I fainted, if I was standing, I probably would have hurt myself by falling down.

ALRIGHT! THAT'S ALL FOR TODAY! =DDD
AND I FEEL PERFECTLY FINE NOW AND I WILL MAKE SURE I DRINK ALOT ALOT OF WATER! =DDD
AND I WILL GO DONATE BLOOD AGAIN DE!
(next time donate blood must do pre-blood donation preparation. lol)
