I really like donating blood. I don't get to do it as often as I would like.





I gave blood for the first time when I was twelve years old. As soon as I turned seventeen, I started giving regularly. I have given almost 6 liters so far in my life. Because I travel frequently, I sometimes have to wait for a long time to give blood again because of the risk of infection. It's also difficult donating in countries where I don't speak the language well.

A lot of people strongly dislike being stuck with needles, but I don't mind much. Some people get dizzy after they donate blood and have to lie down for several minutes after they're finished. I've never had that problem. Once I finished donating, grabbed a cup of cranberry juice, and literally ran to work.

I hope that I can donate blood here in Japan. Have you ever donated blood?

(By the way, my blood type is A+, and I don't believe it has anything to do with personality.)
