Bad Experience of Blood Donation~~

As I said I shall elaborate more on why I think it was a bad experience~~~ This was my second time to donate blood... And I finally got the little red book. Haha.. Ok... It happened when we went to Taiping Central. I thought I want to try finding a dress for Bahan Night there. But the mall was quite small, so my search ended in about 15 minutes time. When Sze-Lyn and I were at the ground floor roaming around to wait for time to pass, she was told that some of them were donating blood at the first floor. I was very excited, so we decided to go and have a look. When I queued up, Lian, Ann Nee, Ming Chung and Derrick were already there. I was just 3 persons behind Derrick for registration. After all the procedures of filling up forms and checking blood pressure and all, all four of them got their place already. Ann Nee even almost done. Lian has been sitting there for quite some because they can't find her veins. I sat down and chatted with them. Before I realized, more and more people came and some even took up my turn. So I stood up and waited. But there were already two persons taken my turn. Thank God for the guy who saw me and gave me the place. Ming Chung and Derrick were done then even before I sat down... =( After sitting down, no one seems to bother about me.. I sat there for quite some time and no one attended to me... Tow Lian was finally done too... Left me alone.... =( Ming chung went to tell the nurse and finally someone came... She tried finding my veins on my left hand and she said cannot see. So I said right hand might be better.. So I changed place. Then she said my veins are too HALUS... The first time she poked, tak kena... So she pulled out the syringe and I had to wait some more before she try the second time... Argh... Already feeling very guilty to make so many people to wait for me... Some more Ann Nee was not feeling well after the blood donation.... After a LONG time(long time to me la), she came again to try the second time. She kept on saying cannot find my veins and I kept on saying also the first time it was very easy to find. Haha.... I did not know whether it was her problem or what that this time was painful. But she finally got it.... The "flow rate" of my blood was fast. It was done in quite a short time la.. And thanks to Derrick I donated slightly more than I was supposed to... The funny thing was Aaron and Lian were saying very fast but Derrick kept telling me that there was a long way to go, don't get deceived as he was the one looking at the weigh. Mana tau, he baca wrongly la... Hahaha.... Now my hand got two needle hole's scars. And Ann said it looked like I was bitten by vampire... Where got vampire bite here one?? Hahaha... I thank God that I do not have any bruises like some people always do after donating blood.... Will it stop me from donating the third time?? Hm... Don't think so... =)
