that’s what you get when you let your heart win

I have Paramore stuck in my head and I am trying to study for my final exam!

I donated blood on Tuesday.  It was a small attempt to feel like a good Samaritan.   It was an experience, let me tell you.  Carter Bloodcare arranged this blood drive with Turner and a few of us from Corporate were able to sign up.  I walked over to the bus with some co-workers.  The bus was at our Dallas Bu, which is only a few blocks and a few minutes away.  I was SO nervous at first!! Don’t get me wrong, I love needles, but it was my first time!! Everyone’s first time is exciting and scary at the same time 😉 (is that a “That’s what she said”?) Anyway, so they put the needle in me and my hand felt funny and prickly and it was over in a matter of minutes.  I got some juice and crackers and sat down for a few.  We started walking back and I was fine until we were one block away from our building.  Everything started get black and I held onto one of my coworkers.  After a few stops along the way to my desk, I made it and I was whiter than even a white person. It was pretty crazy!!!! I still want to do it again if I get the opportunity, but I will make sure I don’t go on my way for at least 15 minutes.

We are leaving for our little summer holiday tomorrow! I will say that I am not excited.  I don’t really see it happening in my head and also I don’t want to get too worked up over it.  I want to get some sun and some waves!! :)  I am looking forward to that.

OK, I need to study!

bye bye
