It happened back in September 2025. In 2024, I was one of the top-performing employees in the company. Each year, the award program is different, and that year included a lucky draw. So, this lucky draw program offers to see the SEVENTEEN K-pop concert in Hong Kong. So, the company will cover flights, accommodation, and concert tickets for selected employees and their companions. When the registration opened, I decided to sign up and thought to myself, “It would be nice if I could bring my sister to see her favorite K-pop band,” and visualized holding 2 concert tickets. Then I registered for the lucky draws and went back to work, and I totally forgot about it. Let me tell you, after 3 weeks, the announcement came, and my name was on the list. I was overjoyed and smiled the whole afternoon alone🥹🥹🥹

However, it is an unplanned trip. I do not have much savings to cover food and domestic travel. I thought of buying souvenir gifts for my young cousins. I thought with the amount of money, I could buy a few packs of the chocolate I want, but if not, I would have to look for other options. Still, I kept telling myself, “I will find a way to buy that chocolate.” As the days went by, my uncle found out that I was going overseas. Then he said he had some HK$ cash left from his work trips. So he gave me all. I was grateful for all of these. It feels magical out of thousands of employees, I was selected in the lucky draws, and then the money was there when I needed it✨✨
