Donating Blood

Donating blood is definitely not what most people make it to be. They say its so painful and dreadful, and frankly I completely disagree with them. I went to donate blood, and it was such a simple and painless task. First I had to fill out paperwork asking me about my health history and then I got my iron tested. I was a little annoyed with the long wait. This was the first time I was donating blood so when I saw the size of the needed I was a little nervous. But once the needle was in everything went by good. I wasnt feeling dizzy at all afterwards and had some snacks. I guess donating blood gave me a good feeling because by giving blood I know I’m helping out someone else. And for those who are “terrified” of needles, its not bad at all, so get over it!
