How to give blood
"It didn't hurt as much as I expected."
How I did it: My school has a blood drive every year and last year I wanted to donate, but couldn't. Today was the blood drive, and I did it. I was really nervous about the needle because it is so big, but it's not that bad, I just couldn't think about it. The finger prick didn't really hurt because it was so cold in the room that by the time I had it done, my fingertips were almost frozen.
Lessons & tips: Drink a lot before hand. I had 3 water bottles this morning and i did it at lunch. My veins were pretty big and it didn't hurt very much.
