journal 1 This morning Brigid and I met with Mrs. Ward. We went over what needs to be accompished in the next couple weeks to months in order to be ready for the blood drive. We need to fix up the appointment card, come up with a slogan and advertise. Brighid is going to ask Mr. Meder if some of his studentd can create a commercial promoting the blood drive. I am going to work on creating the appointment cards while we both collaboratively work on a slogan.

Journal 2 3/29/11 Brigid and I have not met with Mrs. Ward in a couple of weeks. We need to schedule a meeting. Since our last meeting we have come up with a hall pass and a slogan: "Give Blood. Give Life." At our next meeting we are to come with commercials about donating. I have some below. Our next goal is to organize. []

Journal 3 Last meeting we decided on what days we were going to hang flyers, show little commercials amd when we would visit homerooms. We also had a meeting with the Red Cross woman. She was very informative and helpful. It got me really excited to donate. She even told me that I would still be able to donate even though I would becoming back from Itlay.

Journal 4 5/11 Last Thursday I designed flyers to put about the school. I made three. My favorite one is the one that has 267 real big. I don't know I feel like it draws a lot of attention and it makes the reader wonder. Friday we are meeting with the Red Cross people to learn what to do for the blood drive. And the assembly is C block so unfortunately I will miss it because I leave for Italy after B!

Last Journal 5/31 Tomorrow is my presentation. I am not very nervous, just anxious to get it done with. A week ago was the blood drive. It was awesome! i felt so helpful and good about it. I even got to donate blood! I drank so much water that day. It was unfortunate when a few people fainted like my friend Sammy. However, she said she was okay later and that's all that matters. After all she saved three lives just by donating and feeling a little dizzy and groggy for the rest of the day. Overall 115 units of blood were donated and no one was seriously ill. That's 345 lives saved right there! That's incredible. I hope to donate in the future and hopefully get my future school involved if they aren't. Yay donating blood!
