Blood Donation~

just went to donate blood yesterday.. heh so long since I went.. after making paper flowers till 6am.. waking up at 9 to goto MPSH4 was kinda hard..

haha so went late at 10:30AM.. oh btw before I forget, do check out http://www.sheares.nus.edu.sg/swoc0708 as SWOC is selling flowers for Vday, those of you who might want a bouquet or two just let me know k?

Anyway, donation went as per normal, and thanks to Bingting's curiosity, I learnt smth new, that the dripping of the drop of blood into the blue solution (i suspect copper sulphate) is to check whether your blood has sufficient iron. Woohoo. Bet many of you didn't know that.

Since it was her first time donating, AFTER finally crossing that 45kg weight requirement, it was fun disturbing her lol.. but it backfired and instead the nurse thought I was terrified of the needle and tried to assure me instead.. ZZZ

The girl beside us suddenly gave a sneeze/cough and fainted. It was pretty cool, like, "ah choo!" then faint. The nurses rushed over and tilted her to send all the blood in the head. They got quite worried though.

Check out the cool green arm bandage:
