Despite living in rat-race environment and being a materialistic person, I do have feelings and empathy for those who "doesn't live with sufficient health and/or wealth". Ok, I ain't generous in terms of giving out donation. I seldom donate $$$ nowadays, coz it's just difficult for me to differentiate a scam.
Thus, i have switched to a different method of lending help...which is to donateBLOOD
YEA, i enjoy the sensation of being poke by a thick needle, thru my flesh, deep into the vein, seeing my blood oozes out from the tube towards a 350ml packet.
*for those who have no idea how much 350ml is, try imagine a can of soft drink + another 50ml of liquid
Upon completing, the nurse even put the packet on my lap while she went away looking for tools as to cut off the tube. I got a nice view of my own blood, before bidding it goodbye...*too bad, i didn't bring my cam wif me to take its picture...
On the other hand, my dad was abit generous, coz he is more willing to fork out some $ to buy this charity dinner ticket
