Blood Drive

Today I attended the Blood Drive and it wasnt as I expected. It didn’t start out that bad. I signing sheets, had my finger cut for blood,and was asked questions, and waited for my turn. It was my turn and sat down to get my blood taken. It started getting bad from that moment. The finger from my finger was smeared all over my application and the nurse didnt seem happy. I started to get nervous. I also just finished arguing with one of my friends over my phone, so my face wasnt as normal as it usually is. 2 minutes into the process, the guy sees m face and says “Your looking a bit pale, were going to put you down.” he lifted the cot thing, so my feet could be up in the air allowing the blood to go into my head. It was so embarrasing because I was the only one in that position and it was pretty uncomfortable.

It took forever and left me a bit dizzy. As i got up to leave, the guy asked me if I was fine and I told him yes, and stumbled to the ground that minute. They had to escort me out. The whole process took an hour. I donated my blood, embarrased my self and I got was a t-shirt and juice. -_- never again
