Laura's Fun Day
Hey! I slept in this morning. My whole family got up at 9. Ooopsie. So I arrived at school around 9:40, and I didn't go to 2nd period because at 10:00 it was my time to donate blood. Yes, today there was a blood donor thing at my school!
Me and Danielle went together. We went in and got a form, and we had to read this binder with 3 pages of stuff about blood. Then a lady pricked my finger and told me my blood was type A.
Then I had to go fill out a questionairre about AIDS, and no I do not have it! There was questions like had I been in England, Ireland or Scotland for over 6 months since 1977? Have I been to Africa or had sex with anyone from Africa? Well, it was not all of Africa but they named a few countries and I can't remember them. It also asked if I was a man who had had sex with another man. And it even asked if I had done it with a guy who had done it with another guy!
All of my boxes were checked NO. Except the one that said "Are you feeling well today?" Then a lady took my blood pressure and pulse. She asked me if I had eaten that day and I hadn't, so I lied and said I had breakfast cause I really wanted to donate.
Then I had to go lay on a bed and they put the needle in my arm and the blood donating part only took about 6-7 minutes. Then they made me lay there for 5 minutes, then i had to sit for 5 minutes. While I was there about 4 males fainted. But no females! Hahahahahaha!!! Its true!
Then I drank lots of juice and ate cookies! Yum yum. And Danielle took longer than me. I got a headache. By the time it was all done it was 12:30.

Laura's Helpful Tip
When you go on the bus do not try to put in less that $1.50! The thing you put your money in is like a candy machine. The bus driver can see your exact amount, and if you try to cheat them they will yell at you.
