VURI BLOODY.

You know what?! Je owe me half of her life. why? Because for the VERY first time.. I was able to donate a blood. Oo, mehn. We had a blood letting last Thursday, December 8, 2005. one of the most memorable experiences ive ever had. I mean, wala lang. I treasure this. (and I know I should!) actually, I am not in doubt to give away (yuck!) the term! Or share my blood to anyone. Im not afraid of sharps. In fact, those were my favorites. (the tusukan thingies!) go, ask my tita about it. weird, eh!? Ewan. im fond of those nurses or med techs na gumeget ng blood ko for blood exams and everything. Basta. Im sooo naaaliw. Ahehe!

It was a dream come true. oo na, dream ko mag-donate ng blood.. (half a liter would do.) weird, eh?! tas yun. Dumonate ako! YEHEY!

It was super unexpected.. before, I always get rejected. ANEMIC eh! Low RBCs.. then, why donate? They would always advised me to take ferrous sulfate or pa-check-up kasi super low ng blood ko. then, I never had a normal Blood pressure.. 90/60. but when they checked it, 110/70. miracle. Then, underweight pa. pero ayos na. Since je needed my blood for a plus grade in patho.. ayun, I was screened then gumow na ko sa class ko coz I know na ma-re-reject ako. knowing that I didn`t took my ferrous sulfate supply for 2 days na tas I slept at around 2am. So, no reasons para ma-accept ako. e yun, I wanted to help je. Coz I`ve been there. Oo, last sem, I was super like a recruiter na just to get someone whose willing to donate his/her blood. And I tell you this: it was hard. Super! Kung pwede ko lang tusukan sarili ko, then I`ll go ahead and make the tusok tusok JUST for my grades. Haaaay. Hirap. Pero I pity those who donated their blood but still they failed in that subject.. pharma!

So there, though Je didn`t want me to.. (actually, all of them would shout na `NO`) they can`t do anything. I then insisted to go. sooobrang naka ikot sila sa bed ko.. super fun. Aliw. A lot of people were there, watching me. tas those guys who were beside me, mga friends lang.. I mean, not that close. Sila.. Je (moral support), Jayvee (moral support part 2), Nell (part 3 support) Aeleen (magdodonate din kasi siya that`s why gusto niya tignan kung gogow pa siya for some blood reactions), Paul, Ronn, Arnel, (mga cheerers!) kambaloo (pinagtatawanan ako! loko!) Pao (lasing ka, nagdonate ka pa rin!) etseterassss..

Then yun, masaya. Sobrang care nila sa akin.

One wish granted. More wishes to go.
