Thanks to Bishop Davis (who's also the Vice Principal) for inviting me to North High School to give some blood to save lives. Since I love doing these types of things, I decided to go ahead and do it! And guess what? I met a very cute Asian "donation specialist". :)
Even though everyone at the high school is obviously still in their teens, it was weird to be in the crowd. However, Shota (the Japanese visitor that's staying with the Davis') and I were there so it wasn't as awkward because we're both in our 20's.
It was my turn to go and donate some blood but apparently, four of the specialist couldn't find my vein so they were wondering if I ate enough, drank enough or have enough sugar in my blood but of course, this isn't my first time donating blood so I already know what to do. But they still couldn't find my vein. :( but the good turn up about it was that the cute Asian, Andrew Taroreh (yes, I remembered his name), spent a lot of time on me. Touching my arm here and there, making small talk and making sure I wasn't hurt or feeling any discomfort. The bad thing about it is that I was constantly poked because no one could find my little veins that were hidden deep in my skin. Haha. Oh well. However, I don't know why they struggled so much when the people at MEPS did a much better job in finding my vein and drawing out blood. Hmm.
But thankfully, I did my part in saving someone's life.
Oh, and today seems to be the day where I'm constantly reminded of Blue Fox. And the big reason was because of the whole blood drive event... Because one of my plans was that we would donate blood together as a couple since we both like saving lives... I wanted us to go and donate our blood as a couple. Sigh.
A Good Samaritan,
Otter
