Blood Donors

Today is special because today is my first time become blood donors.

I should have taken some picture when the blood flowing from my hand to the blood bag.
Anyway, I forget because I'm just to excited.

Let just start the procedure before they taking my blood.
First we have to fill the registration form with some detail like name, address, weight, and some medical history question.
Then the officer calling our name as we collect the form, it take some time to get our name called.
When my name was called, I get in the room and met the doctors. The first doctor take my blood for blood sample and test the blood type. She take a needle and sting my middle finger, I'm a bit shock because it sting so hard and fast.
the second doctor is testing my blood pressure, she said it's normal and I can became the donors.

After got permission I have to wait for the other to finish the before they take my blood.
When my turn came, I step in, lay back and the nurse start with strap my sleeve then get the big needle and when the needle injected to the artery it feels like the needle injected to the artery. They start flowing my blood to the blood bag, around 250 cc.

after that I get up and get out the room to another room and get my donors card and some snacks.

That's why we gather together

Last Sunday, we gathered together at American Grill Sizzler Taman Anggrek Mall

It was me, who start the issue to have a gathering people from MAT (Binusian 2007 IT Night Class). The first reason was I want to see my friend with her seventh month pregnancy.

I ask her and she agree. So the problem are the people, time and place, so I start with the person with most influence between us that. She agree to come and suggesting some place, but she cannot help to spread the message around the others and we haven't decide the place and time.
So I collect some data while asking around the people might come. and in the end we all agree to come to Taman Anggrek Mall at 4 PM at Sunday, March 7 2010.

At the pointed day. The day was right and the time has come, but the people...
people always arrive late...

well I think I was the first come in the front the pointed restaurant then the others come one after another. We start ordering and talking and then laughing. When more people come the crowd become more like nonstop laughing contest. The room was noise, and the audience were hot. And the top topic was the "mother will be" will have a girl and need to do Caesar Surgery because the position of her baby is side way or else. (I'm not really understand about this)

Anyway we have fun together and have some picture taken.

The "mother will be" deliver in 10 weeks.


Here we are who gather together to have some food and fun together.

Long Trip, Good Experience

Have Fun....

I just got back from long trip last weekend, this trip was planned by friends of my cousin, a vacation to the Ujung Genteng, located in south West Java.

It start with the my last blog, in the end I were not slept, just chat while preparing my stuff.
Until around three a.m. after my friends come to pick me. I take a bath and change cloth, we go to the pickup point that is my cousin boyfriend house. We depart at four a.m. with a rented car and got to the cottage around two p.m. because we are waiting the other car that we are waiting for one and half hour. On the way to the cottage, there are a lot of curve and twisted with holes on the road. I and my friend sit at the back and we are jumping all the time in the car.


The first day we got there, around three p.m. we are walking to the beach near the cottage. The scene is good, but the beach are full with coral and steep.


The next day we were going to waterfall.



After get back at afternoon were preparing to go to the breeding turtles to see they spawning.
The rule are we cannot get close to the turtle before it start spawning their eggs, because the turtle will feel not safety and cancel spawning their eggs there. And we cannot ride the turtles.



Day three, we got back to the beach where the turtle spawning in the morning.
the beach is hard to reach, you have to go deep off road until no car can pass the trees, then walk through the trees to reach the beach.



It's a very nice beach with white sand and big waves, there are also estuary, some people are fishing there.

Time to go home and back to work. The way back, we took a different route. This route are less holes on the road, but it's a hilly road.

The trip was fun, and the tiredness was paid by beautiful and fun event.
We got back to Jakarta at eleven p.m.

Rest and got back to office the next day.
