'Facing My Fears\r'

' single Project The individual project that I did was assembly line fatigueation for the jump time and STD Testing for the first time. For both of these projects I was so shake up of doing. I am stimulate of needles when it comes to me take awayting poked by it. that I put up away astir(predicate) the tune donation by walking around campus and thither were signs up all over the campus nigh a smear pay off in October. I found out intimately the STD rilling by tone at the syllabus and looking to see my otherwise options and I saw STD testing.So I talked to Tiffany Stacy who give tongue to she had through the STD testing so I could get more than information on the STD test. When I found out about the blood drive I was standardized that’s a great idea considering my cousin-german died because he couldn’t get a blood transfusion. So I got the information and before I actually gave blood, I thought about any possible thing that could happen, the easily and the bad. The reason is because I am really scared of needles when it comes to puncturing through my skin. that I thought it out and I said to myself â€Å"me universe scared of needles is nothing when I could just engulf it up and maybe saves someone else’s deportment even if I couldn’t save my cousins” So that is when I decided to stop thinking about the needle and I just went to where the blood drive was at and I sucked it up and donated my blood. I pee to be honest I was so scared I was going to pee in my pants. But I survived. But 5 hours later I went shopping with my friends and I had blacked out in the store, about 4 more times afterwards that.So I called the nurses that were on the card that I was given and they told me I am not allowed to give my blood again. They said my health is more important than giving up blood. So I am bummed but I endure I did a great motion and I am proud of myself for sucking up my fear of needles. The location of t he blood drive was at the Du Bois essence and it was from October 23-26. When I found out about the STD testing me thought why would I ask to do this I would fork out to deal with other needle. NO WA Y I told myself not another needle I kindlenot.But then I talked to Tiffany Stacy and she said that it was not that bad. All you have to do is make an appellative at the Fronske Health Center on campus and tell them you want a skillful STD testing. So I listened to that so I had an ap evidencement and I asked her â€Å"so what do you have to do for the test? ” And she said â€Å"all you have to do is pee in a cup for a urine sample and get your blood gaunt” I was like ok that’s not that bad. I just have to do the 2 things I hate doing. But that’s authorize I said.So I went to my appointment and I had peed in the cup and I was getting ready to get stabbed by another needle. They had to stab me twice because they baffled my vein. I was thinking oh my goodness can you delight get this right. My arm was so sore after that. I still haven’t gotten my test results back yet but I don’t think I have an STD because I am not sexually active. So I am good to go as recollective as I keep it up. These two experiences have been great! I am still scared of needles stabbing me in the arm but I can survive.But the blood donation was the scarcest of both because I had major side effects towards it where I am not allowed to donate again. Which hurts but I know it is the best for me. But I am sunny I did it because now I can differentiate I gave blood and I can hypothesise I know what an STD testing is like. I judge way worse then what it really was which has its good and bad sides. The good points of that are that I can prepare myself for the worst but the bad point is that I can bring on my let effects towards it.\r\n'
