Club Med is After Your Blood

During lunch, this girl approaches AJ, Gabe, Dom and I asking if we were interested in donating blood.  We looked at eachother for a few seconds, followed by a burst of laughter, then a subtle refusal.  I’m not saying it’s wrong to give blood, it’s just that we chose not to.  The girls temper accumulates beneath her stoic shell, whipping out a green sheet of paper.  The paper is a permission form for parents to allow their children to donate ‘x’ amount of blood.  Here’s where the problem commutates into a troublesome situation. We already said no, and now she begins to force the green paper upon us.  Opressing our choices, she continues to banter, exclaiming that donating blood is a part of her grade.  Since when did CLUB Med issue grades?  To shut her up, Gabe begrudgingly accepted a sheet. She left a bit flustered, but whatever. 

Seriously, Club Med, why not just post it in the bulletin, instead of deploying students on a mission to gather blood - especially ones with the personality of a pissy porcupine.  It was lols in the end though.
