Blood donation

Heyy everybody!

It didn't happen that much since the last time I wrote. I slept over at Susanne's place from Thursday to Friday, Thursday we went to late night and Friday was Rainbow day in school. Depending on which grade you are in, you should have worn a special colour. Grade 11's was orange (such an stupid colour, who has
orange? Well,luckily I did.^.^) In the first break, we formed a huge rainbow with all the students of our school and took a photo.
Adrian and Gemma moved out on Friday last week. Even I was surprised, because it was like BUM! and they were gone. :D But yeah, it  doesn't really bother me.
Last weekend, Susanne was over and we went all together to the Drags for the last time in this year. It gets too hot now, even this race was already at night time Was good but, Susanne and I made friends with a random boy sitting next to us. The rest of the time she was here, I worked on my asssignment and I actually even finished the maths one (after hours of frustration). Susanne was on facebook or trying to work as well or helping me with my questions. :D
Well, I think the whole working thing was all right for once, but not for more often.

New bus card!
This week, nothing special happened. It was just the first week, my hostbrother and hostdad were working and Gemma and Adrian didn't lived at home anymore. So mainly, Antonia and I were alone at home. Because I am now often at home before her ('cause of the bus), I use the time to listen to loud music and to try to dance a little. Worked well last week. (: On Tuesday, I walked to Mount Pleasant after school and from there to Spotlight (an australian store) to buy buttons and dye for my home economic assignment. Antonia picked me up from there and we

went and bought me a BUS CARD! Unbelievable! It is SO much easier and I feel so cool now with my bus card, insane! On Wednesday night, I was alone at home. Antonia went to some friends after work and I baked a banana bread (Yum!) and had 2-minutes-nuddles for diner. Was all right. I just went really early to bed because I felt a little sick... Friday, I left school to go to the blood donation station in hospital in Mackay. Three other Grade 11 went with me and we all gave blood togtehr (yey!). OMG, it was way better than I had expected! All the ladies were so nice and everything got explained to me and they asked me about 8 times if I had any questions and everything. We had to fill out once more about 10 form, but okay. The atmosphere was really nice and they actually made us to eat and drink and the things to choose from were awesome!
Me, donating blood for first time.
Muffins, buiscits, toast, sausage rolls, sweets, chips, cold drinks, hot drinks, coloured drinks, and you were allowed to eat and to drink as much as you wanted. I had a very nice lady who leaded me through the whole donation proccess. I talked with her about exchanges and Germany, she actually had friends in Germany! Well anyway, she had to test my blood if my iron level was high enough. For this reason, she picked me in the finger like the diabetics have to do it all the time to test their values. It hurt, but I managed the whole thing very well. All good, my iron level was really good (awesome. :D). It was the same lady who inserted the needle in my arm, it actually REALLY hurt but I didn't cry (Not at all. Not even nearly..) and I hadn't any problems (I am SO freaking proud of myself! Unbelievable!). They took about 500 ml from me in 08.13 minutes (she told me the time) and then they gave me more food and I stayed another couple of minutes to make sure that my body proccesed the first shock well. All good, I got really really tired about 2 hours after the donation but that was about it. No bruise, no nothing. I will receive a
Have u ever hold your own blood in your hand?
registration card soon with my official number, name and blood group (They analyse my blood groupe and test me for HIV and whatever and whatever and tell me hopefully the results. So after, I know if I am really sick or not. Well, I am not. But it's good to get it proved.) And yes, I will go at least one more time (to get hopefully my little button with my blood group symbol on it) and then we'll see if I feel like going again. (:
Friday after school I went with Carissa. First she had to work in Mount Pleasant and I went to the library to do some work. We got picked up by her dad and went home, to her house. I met her mum and her two sibblings, the dog, cat and birds and had a really nice diner there. Carissa and I watched movies for the whole evening. ^.^ We woke up at 6 am because we slept in the living room and her mum stood up at 6 am to make heaps of noises. Yeah. But well. We went to the beach with the dog and had showers and went to Canelands to buy Carissa a new dress for an event next week. I got picked up by Peter and his girlfriend Bianca and well, now I'm home. I had a really nice weekend until now, but now I have to do some work for school (I'm running out of time!!! :O) and I am TIIIIIRED. Ô.o

Write to you soon!
Love <3
