on Dec 12th, 2008Nuffnang’s SG Bloggers Blood Donation Drive 08
When I was first invited to Nuffnang’s Blood Donation Drive, I was excited, elated, enthusiastic about the whole idea of donating blood. I’m a blood giving virgin, and the whole idea just sounds so cool! Games, prizes, door gifts, and doing a good deed all a day’s work!
As I headed down to Health Sciences Authority, where Singapore Blood Bank is located, nerves started to kick in. I was scared. It suddenly dawned on me that blood will be drained out of my arms…. scary….
Luckily, there were many familiar faces there like Sheylara, Nadnut, Fidelis, Andystorm and as well as other friendly bloggers that were chilling out and enjoying the buffet spread they had for us. We even had a game of snake and ladder!! I was partnered with one of the Nuffnang staff, I think her name was Claire or Clara? And WE WON!!!
Look at the goodie bag!!! A box of BRANDS Chicken of Essence to help with my recovery!
Well, it was time for me to donate blood along some other bloggers…
I must say that it looks very scary and painful initially, but the nurses were very steady and assuring. We were given a squeezy ball to hold on to.
When the needle first pricked into my veins, I didn’t feel much pain and it was definitely very bearable. I have taken various injections for immunization and this is definitely not painful as compared to other injections!
Good quality stuff!
I’ve got a certificate from Nuffnang!
