My bad, haha

Sooo, it's been a really long time since I updated this, you'd think I'd be able to since I'm a jobless slob. Ok, I'm not a slob, just jobless haha.

I've been out of school for a little over a month and I can't find a job. I've been shot down at a ton of places, sucks. It's my first time ever spending a summer in Rexburg, and it's the worst time ever to try to find a job. But there is hope.....

I interviewed at Hollister in Idaho Falls on Tuesday, so we'll see if I get hired there, I sure hope I do, I don't know what else to do if that fails.

Plenty of students here in Rexburg donate plasma twice a week for $50 and have no problems with it. Well I was broke and needed money, so I have in and did it, despite my hatered towards getting needles stuck in me. First time I went, I was fine the whole time until I had about 5 minutes left and I started getting light headed, I didn't pass out but it was a close call haha.

I went back a few days later since you can only go twice every seven days, and my second time, was worse than the first. They said the pressure was bad or something so they had to adjust the needle around and did something. 2 days later my arm started bruising and now it looks all jacked up. No more donating plasma for me, I hate it.
My arm after 2 days

My arm after 6 days

My arm after 8 days

So yeah, I don't want to do that anymore haha. Hopefully I get the job, if not, anyone want to give me some money? Hahaha, jk, I'll find out in a day or so if Hollister decided to hire me, I'm keeping my fingers crossed until then, haha.

Oh, my gosh! That sort of happened to me once, and I thought my bruise was huge, but it wasn't nearly as gross as that. Oh, and the second time I donated plasma, I did pass out. It was embarassing. haha. I don't think I can donate anymore, though because I just went to the UK and the plasma people don't want mad cow blood or something.

Ha ha! Being on the other end of that needle (I worked at a plasma donating place as a phlebotomist) I won't go either! I've done that to a few people! So sorry that it happened to you!
