I did it, I did it, I really really did it!
almost 2 hours, bags of cookies & a barf bag later (don't worry, I didn't use it! they were just worried about me.) I donated my first bag of blood!
Oh that's great! You're just gonna do it once? I mean I fainted the last I did once they were done drawing all the blood. But I want to keep doing it-- just remember to eat well beforehand. You don't want someone staring at you while your feet are in the air and you're waking from the best sleep of your life. That might sound nice, but it's embarrassing!
Woohoo! Go you! This has been on my list as well, but I kinda hate needles so I always find reasons to put it off. 😬
ReplyDeleteGet it, girl. I tried once- I mean, i walked into the church gym & left quickly so I didn't barf.
ReplyDeleteSo proud! ;)
ReplyDeletenever donate blood, pretty sure im the universal donor, whoops.
ReplyDeletehowever as long as i don't weigh enough i dont see it as a crime.

oh that's awesome!! i was going to one time, but then i chickened out and left right before they called my name #foreverscaredofneedles
ReplyDeletego you! i wish i could, but my veins are too small for the needles they use. (and i'm a sissy and would probably pass out).
ReplyDeleteCongrats! It know how hard that can be but it's so worth it.
ReplyDeleteCheers
This is completely unrelated, but your cateye eyeliner is perfect!
ReplyDeleteSweet! It was on my bucket list for senior year and so last fall, my school had a drive and I signed up. Can't wait to do it again!
ReplyDeleteOh my goodness. I just did this, too. Not a great experience, but we're saving lives, right? Also, your haircut is amazing.
