World Blood Donor?

Day 15 off Friendster
Coffee consumed today = 0 (hurrah! also just remember that the machiato I had yesterday was a decaff!)

Managed to donate the blood at last, I had been thinking about doing so for months since HSA rejected me last April because I no longer had an address there (I guess Singapore was so afraid that people having some diseases (like HIV) would use the blood donation as a test center instead of seeing a proper physician) I dropped by Red Cross yesterday but it was too late as the clinic close at 4.30pm, lucky I had to go to town again this morning. Good blood wouldn't achieve its purpose if it's still in my body, better set it free. I have a little problem of dehydration even though I drink 3-4 litre of water each day. Since giving blood this morning I felt more cold sores were incubating. I should really see doctor about this nagging condition.

While I was there, I noticed many announcement boards boasting "The World Blood Donor Day", and the date given was 14th of June. This question then popped up:
Why should June 14th be the world blood donor day?
a) is it the worldwide median of blood donors' birthdate?
b) is it the day with highest record of blood donated?
c) is it the day there was the highest record of blood required?
d) is anyone born on June 14th required more blood than others?
e) is anyone born on June 14th donated the highest record ever?

my silly brain can come up with twenty or so silly explanations. but I'll try to forget them


Afterwards I went to Paragon, got into supermarket and admired the gourmet salad bar. There it doubles the price of salad at Sizzlers but the stuffs are with far higher quality, and better taste too. I wish there was such salad bar in Singapore when I lived there, I wouldn't eat anything else and wouldn't have to trouble myself making own salad!


Yawn! 4 days to final exam and I haven't read a single page. I either worked on my jeans revamp project or writing a blog. Promised my classmates to come up with the summary of marketing frameworks and modules to memorize for the final.. I intend to stay up all night to work on it..

May god please bless me..
