A bit of luck for once

Posted on Thursday, April 28, 2011 in Other

For once I’ve had a bit of luck. A while back, my sister entered a contest to win a pair of glasses, frames and all. Strangely enough she won. I decided that if there was ever such a contest again, I’d enter. And there was. I was sure I wouldn’t win too. I mean, what are the odds for that?

This time around, ‘only’ five hundred people would get free glasses, as apposed to a thousand the first time. Still, it was worth a shot. There was a bit of room for more than luck, a little tenacity. Every contestant received a code and on a certain day at a certain time, you were supposed to click, then enter your code.

Needless to say I was waiting in front of my computer for the specified time to come, then just clicked as fast as I could. Later that day I got an email saying I’d won. If it hadn’t been for my sister’s experience, I would have been sure this was just a trick, but fortunately for me, it wasn’t.

Yesterday, the glasses arrived. I need some more time to get used to them, then maybe there’ll be a photo. Not making any promises, but maybe.
