My papa benny used to give blood to the blood drive at his temple all the time. I would give blood but I think I'm too young. But maybe I should look into that.
I rely on my illusions to keep me warm at night

haha that's really weird, because i also just signed up to give blood. i'm not scared, mainly because when i had a ski accident a couple of years ago they had to take blood every half an hour. i got so used to it that i could sleep through them taking blood. so now i'm thinking that it's my duty to give blood to save others, in case i'm ever in a situation where i need blood (or one of my loved ones needs blood).  it's the karma thing. like, letting a car go before you at an intersection- i also do that in hopes that someone else will let me go later. haha. um, ok.

EDIT- my bad! good luck with your blood. i'm sure it'll be great! :-) and just think, you could be saving a life... and YOUR blood could be in someone else's body.. and that's just a litttttle weird. :-) jk. you'll do fine!
...i'd rather laugh with the sinners than cry with the saints, the sinners are much more fun, you know that only the good

Wow, now that you mention it, it does sound kinda weird lol

But about being scared I don't think i'll be too scared.. at least not until the day of the actual event lol. But like just last semester I had my knee accident where my kneecap popped out at school while I was in the lockeroom after P.E. when I fell  & the paramedics had to come and stuff and so if I can handle having my kneecap popped out for over a freakin hour (it seemed forever until they popped it back in!) I think i'll be okay now that I think of it lol

I hyperventilated when I saw the needle and the bag for how much they would be taking the first time, when I was in 11th grade o_o Almost fainted, I panicked so much. And the screaming involved.  :oops: How embarassing.

I signed up for the blood drive on Friday.

Please help me out and tell me what goes on, I asked the girl Nelly and she was like, "oh it doesn't hurt one bit! they give you a free movie ticket and cookie after"

I dont think that will help me after they drain me of my blood...

I'm so scared of needles but I want to help out, no one was signing up so I gathered my courage and did, but now going through with the blood drive is going to take another big ounce of courage!

help! (details...pain.... blood...*oh god*)

haha- well we haven't had ours yet.. I have no clue when it is or anything, I haven't heard anything about it, but that is not fair, we don't get shit after we give blood lol it's okay tho, it'll be for a good cause.

I forgot all about the blood drive until my thread was bumped up, I wish they would say when it is.. ahh my school is bad with that stuff. They don't tell us anything until like two days before hand, so yeah lol

I'm not!

My mom gave me the low down...they say she has really good blood, my mother.

and she said it hurt, the needle is huge and its very painful.

:?

she said the third time she gave blood was her last because it was an awful experience.

I'm not signing my papers!

lol
