0003: Bloody Blood

Recently, I've been waking up around seven to eight in the morning without the help of my alarm clock, which is a little bit annoying considering that I sleep around three in the morning. It's nice that I do wake up so early but why does it have to happen when I'm not going to school anymore? Why can't I wake up early all the time when I was attending school?

Ah, it matters not.

On other news, last night, I bought a ticket to go to The Netherlands(1). I told my parents I weren't going but now I need to retell them that I am.I'll be staying there for a whole month from June 2nd to June 29th. Before that though, I'll be going to London and attend the MCM Expo(2). That begins on the 27th to the 29th of May. It'll be my second time attending it and I do hope that someone else will come along with me but I have a feeling that no one will. Oh, sad face.

I will, though, meet a friend there! She will be dressed up as two Vocaloids(3) on three different days. I do hope that I get to borrow my friend's camera during that time so that I could take pictures of everyone. And hopefully, I'll be wearing something comfortable. Last year's get up was not… really a cosplay(4). It's not the best picture as it was during the trial process. I wonder who has actual pictures of me with the full outfit?

So what's up with the title of the blog? Well, to tell you the truth. Today, my first day of holidays, I went to donate my blood! It is number thirteen on my New Year's Resolution list! I'll have to re-post the list somewhere soon. Maybe after I post this blog entry. But, yeah! I finally got to donate my blood. I don't understand why people find it scary; it doesn't even hurt when they stick the needle in. Some of my friends have been scaring me, asking me whether I knew how big the needle was but it wasn't big at all. If you ever feel like donating, don't let the distance to the session or the needle scare you. Blood is very important in the medical field and they really need people to start donating. Here's a picture and a short video! Not the best ever recorded but still my experience.

Also, I have a feeling that some people hate listening to me and find me a bad influence as well.

/* Numbered Notes */
(1) I have been to The Netherlands before and I do love it there. Somehow, it's a little nicer there than it is here. Or it could be just because I need to pay rent here and not there.
(2) MCM Expo is a convention mostly for anime, manga, Japanese culture and for people to try and sell their comics or merchandise etc.
(3) A singing synthesizer application or engine where users can make the program sing songs (original or cover).
(4) Cosplay is short for the words "costume role-play" where people dress up as a character from an anime, TV show etc.
