I have a history of winning things; in fact, I probably can’t
recall everything I won in my life so far.
It all started one day when Pick ‘n Pay had a clay building
competition to entertain the children when their mothers shop. I build a cute
clown from my clay and received a ball for the effort (I think everyone got
one, but that wasn’t important). Apart
from various cash prices, which include a photographic competition hosted by a
local photo shop, I won a lot of big prices over the years.
I won a small colour
television on a teenage show, named Tekkies. In this particular competition I
entered because the runner up received a tog bag full of TV bars, but instead I
won the first prize, but that was probably better for my health in the long
run. In high school I won a Wendy house in a competition in the local paper and
a tennis racket from Jungle Oats. I once won 10 CDs on Highveld Stereo as well
as a night’s stay at the Caesar’s hotel. Recently I won a stainless steel fire pit
at the Spur and a Lenovo IdeaTab in the last month.
Still I won’t give out hope that one day I will win a car,
preferably one I like. And lots of money won’t hurt either. I have however
resolved that I will never win the lottery, so I do not even play. Whenever I
get the feeling to play the lotto, I rather use the money to buy chocolates.
