Memo ~ First blood donation (30 May 2009)

The night before, I had made up my mind to go for it, for the sake of helping people. It wasn't an extremely strong decision. It's just like "oh, now's the chance for me to do it" kind of decision (sounds like I've been waiting for it?). And before that, I was so afraid of giving away my blood to the blood bank. Well, I was a member of the Red Crescent, so my role was to get more people to contribute more than what I could have done alone right? Hehe...

The process? Well, it's way easier than what I had imagined all the time. Maybe I had a company with me I guess. ;)

The following few days I've been feeling less energetic than usual. At gym I also couldn't perform as much as I used to do. Probably it will last for a week at least I guess.

So next time, I will go for donations again but, only for the sake of helping people I know. I have done it one time so I won't feel as much fear as before. The reason why I hesitate to go on a more regular basis is because I still hold the fear of depleting my body cells every time I do a blood donation. Hmm... I really don't know.

Oh by the way, I'm B class. Next time onwards I can read some personality test based on my blood type. ;)
