How I did it: I got my sister to take me to a plasma donation place by our house. For first time donors they pay about $30, which is cool. You have to answer a bunch of questions, go to a screening, get a finger prick, and have a physical before you even know if you can donate that day.  I did all that over the course of 3 days lol, which they found annoying.
It took me 75 minutes to actually donate! My vein wasnt pumping very fast or sumthing, oh well. I had a major bruise afterwards, but i always get those with needles lol. I'm just glad i finally did it, and i definetely plan to do it again!gla

Lessons & tips: Eat before you go, and drink a lot of water first to. Also, have a lot of time to spare.

Resources: just looking around on the internet helped me.
