Need more blood?

Halleuuw...

Last week, the day after the horrible test, they had this blood drive at uni.
Thinking that this might be my last chance to donate kat negara omputih, I decided to give it a go.

Last time, which was about 3 years ago (haha) I was not allowed to donate because of iron deficiency. Then I was 'forced' by a doctor (which was a few months ago) at the Health Centre to take iron tablets hoping that it would help get the count back to normal. Erm...and I think it works!

Therefore I was pretty confident that this time I'll be a blood donor.
To my dissapointment, I was rejected. I was considered as taking medicine, thus can only donate 6 months after I stop taking the tablets.

"We can't take from you what you are trying to build", the nurse said.

Come to think of it, betul jugak eh. How can I give someone else something that I am lack of? Look like I was trying to do something good, but it turned out to be unwise.

You give when you have what to give. You speak when you know what to say. You teach when you have the knowledge. You fight when you have the strength. Do something when you have what it takes. Like that okay?

Hidup Ikut Rentak

Hidup ikut rentak...
Tapi ada rentak yang tariannya tidak saya ketahui...
Bila rentak bertukar, saya masih terkocoh-kocoh belajar yang lama...
Orang kata alah bisa tegal biasa, tak sempat nak tegal, tak sempat nak biasa.

Arus yang bergerak kadang-kadang terlalu pantas sampai terbenci...
Kalau tak bergerak sama, akan ditelan arus...
Mungkin satu hari arus yang akan membenci saya...
Benci tak apa, asal jangan ditelan.

Saya nak jadi macam sumpah-sumpah. Itik mungkin tak sesuai. Sumpah-sumpah, mudah mengadaptasi, tak kira suasana yang menakutkan atau suasana yang menghiburkan. Senang dia berubah, tapi dia masih tetap sumpah-sumpah. Tapi saya tak macam sumpah-sumpah. Harus gimana?

Dalam ini banyak persoalan, tapi kan tak elok tanya banyak soalan-soalan kalau tiada kepentingannya. Namun tetap saya bertanya, cuma tidaklah berharap pada jawapan.
