And it hurt, too.
The whole thing was rather amusing, actually. This was my first time ever giving blood, so I was naturally kind of nervous. I go through all the tests and stuff fine, but about halfway through the actual blood-drawing process, I began to feel faint. One of the nurses came over and asked me if I was okay, to which I replied, more or less, “no.” By that time, I was beginning to feel nauseous as well. The bad kind of nauseous. Where you need a bucket. I didn’t end up needing the bucket, but they had to stop the donation process for me and chucked my blood on the grounds that it wasn’t a full pint and therefore essentially useless. It didn’t bother me too much, but I was kind of annoyed that I almost fainted for nothing.
So now my arm hurts and the finger they pricked for the iron test is starting to bug me. But on the plus side, I got to skip out on Physics. Woohoo!

I tried to give blood too. But I couldnt’ cuz I’d lived in the UK for over 6 months. That just sucks.
that would kinda suck,
why not just add it to another blood-bucket-thingie of the same type
or drink it, damn vampires…always stealing my bagels….
and yea, living in england IS a pretty solid cause of tainted blood
I’m so sorry you drive a Geo Metro. Unfortunately, I too drive a Geo Metro. It’s named, “The Mellybean”. It’s an ‘89, and it has 235,000 miles on it. The paint was blue at one time, but now it’s kind of greyish, with big rusty spots here and there. I leave the windows rolled down at night in the hopes that someone will steal it. Birds refuse to poop on it.
