They managed to find a vein in my left arm, wiggled it around
no blood came out, even though I kept pumping my fist like crazy. Took the fucking needle out and blood came running down my arm. Well, you just can't please some people.

They were preparing to do the same to the other arm when someone stopped them. Apparently they only allow one attempt. Oooh dear :D

I let a student nurse do mine
that's how hard I am. I felt sorry for her because the last three people had said no. She did it fine though and was really grateful.

When I give blood, they have to get the doctor to find my veins.

I had no problem giving blood
actually, they tested both of my arms. And in the end went back to the arm they started with.

Plus I'm pretty common blood type. My mum is rarer, and she's too scared to. My dad is not happy with this :/
