They Bleed Because They Care...

Last weekend, there's a Blood Donation Drive here in Manipal.. Quite a number of people turned up for this year's drive. At a point there was so many donors that they have to close the door and ask those outside to come back later.

It was Kristin's 1st donation, being nervous and all, the lot of us where there entertaining everyone around there. You go girl! (pssst.. It's a way to lose weight kan? u lost erm.. 350grams i think) Last year, yours truly also donated at this event. So this year, eager to the same, haha i got Seeteng to document my whole journey.

  1. Filling up the consent form. Saying i won't sue their asses if i die during the process and that i haven drink in the last 12 hours. Kris & me decided half a glass of rum is not considered drinking =)

2.) Doing blood grouping and haemoglobin concentration tests


But this is where my journey ends... Kena rejected =.= Erm due to some complications.. No lor... I dun have HIV you ppl =.= Well, new tip for future donaters, apparently, you can't donate your blood if you have a body piercing within 6 months. =) Go figure!

OH! Idol oh Idol.. Left Adam & Kris.. I'm rooting for Kris obviously.. I always believe a pretty Idol sells more! Take a look at Kelly & Carrie, relative to Ruben, Fantasia & Taylor Hicks. Can't wait for the finale.. It's going to be so fun =s

I don't understand why people who recently got body-piercings can't donate full blood. I thought that they screen the blood regardless? Cuz what if someone lies? Bleh.

What complications did you have? Hope it's nothing serious.

Gays can not donate blood in the USA. It is listed on the questionnaire. If you have same gender sex, you are not welcome. They think we are all hiv+. But really, there are more strait people with hiv than gays.

In malaysia,gays aren't allowed to donate blood too. but i donated once...accidentally. opps...haha.

I use to donate too, even if I was gay. Then I thought about it? Screw the breeders. If they think my blood is not good enough for them. They can die on the surgical table.
