新加坡血库之多美歌 Blood Donation @Dhoby Ghaut

上星期特地去光明山捐血却因为服用中药挡了下来：[捐血记（差一点）Blood Donation (nearly)](https://steemit.com/cn-malaysia/@auleo/blood-donation-nearly)， 这个星期就学乖 了，早在几天前就停用泡參（幸好没弄得我工作表现大掉）。
>Last weekend I was rejected to do blood donation during the Singapore Red Cross roadshow at Khor Meng San [Blood Donation (nearly)](https://steemit.com/cn-malaysia/@auleo/blood-donation-nearly) as I filled the declaration form that I took Chinese herb. This week I am well prepared that stop take in Chinese herb few days before blood donation, luckily enough not affecting much my work performance.

新加坡红十字会的捐血活动除了流动性质、类似路演去全岛各处办捐血活动，也有4个捐血站是固定每天开放的（除了公共假期），这一次就去了乌节路的捐血站（@dhoby ghaut xchange）
>Singapore Red Cross Blood Donation drive not only have the road shows , go around the island , but they do have 4 permanent blood donation stations namely Bloodbank@HSA, Bloodbank@Dhoby Ghaut, Bloodbank@Woodlands & Bloodbank@Westgate Tower. And this time @auleo went to the one nearer to me - @Bloodbank@Dhoby Ghaut Xchange.

第一次去血库捐血，还走错路以为是附近的红十字会会所，仔细一看原来就在地铁站的上方广场，根本不必走太远，又折回。
>First time ever @auleo donate blood at the blood bank, and I thought the location was at the Red Cross building not far away from the MRT station, Only when stop aside to double check only knew that I went to wrong place and U-turn back to MRT station.

来固定点捐血，看起来比较好，设施都比较完善，捐血椅也比较好，真心考虑下次来固定点捐血好了，这里乘搭地铁回家也比较方便些。
>It looks much better to do blood donation at the blood bank as the facilities here looks more complete, the donation seats also much confortable- Should consider seriously the next time to donate here in blood bank instead, as more convenient to travel back home with MRT also.

捐血后的食物补给都是一模一样的。
>The food at snack station looks the same type same supplier.

同时捐血后补给休息的，@auleo 发现除了本身以外，竟然另三名捐血者也是大马人，一名菲律宾人，还有另3名应该是本地人。根据十字会数据，全年只有大约2%新加坡人捐血，那如果情况好像今天一样，那一半捐献者不就是非新加坡公民捐献了。
>When rest after the blood donation, @auleo found aside from myself, there are 3 more donors are also Malaysians knowing from their accent, 1 Philippine guy and 3 more are the locals. According to the statistics from Singapore Red Cross, there were only 2% adults donate blood in Singapore, If follow the sampling rate as observed today, then half the donors are non-citizens.

无论如何，今天是个美丽星期天，感恩得以做了件善事。
>Anyway, today is a beautiful Sunday, as I feel grateful as able to contribute little to the society.

后记：
上星期收到新加坡红十字会的信函，说下来六月尾有个世界捐血者日，到时凭着信件去到Garden By The Bay 就可以优惠价购买那两个室内花园的入门票，算是小小犒赏新加坡捐血者吧？呵呵
>Received a letter from Singapore Red Cross, that end of June, there will be a World Blood Donor Days held at Marina Garden By the Bay. And we could purchase the 2 garden entrance tickets with a discounted price (S$6, limit to 2 tickets per letter though), as a token of appreciation to the Blood Donors

新加坡图书馆之义顺 Singapore Public Library- Yishun

@auleo 旅居新加坡这么多年，觉得新加坡在公共图书馆这方面做的非常好，想把它介绍给Steemit的朋友。
After staying in Singapore for couple of years, I find the public libraries here are very well managed and thus would like to introduce it to fellow Steemians.


众新加坡图书分馆，有一半是独栋建筑物，而一半则是设立在购物中心里，而这些附设在商场的图书馆，@auleo觉得这想法太棒了！让不爱逛街的人去商场有一个好去处 ，而且这非常方便大众还书或借书的（可以网上预约，然后安排送到你要接收的图书馆）
>Singapore Public Libraries, some of them are located in a standalone building, while some of them are located right inside a shopping mall,which normally are on top of public transportation interchanges. @auleo just love the idea of having the public libraries established in a mall ,where book lovers whom doesn’t enjoy shopping can kill their time while their family do the shopping. And this has brought great convenience to public where the loaned book return and borrowing is so much easier (You can do any book reservation and arrange it to be sent to any dedicated library for collection ,at a small fee)
