By Priya Roy, Year 13
We’ve all felt this way. Fortunate. Lucky. Blessed. And blissful. When we find that abandoned pen on a lab desk in Chemistry or on the carpeted floor of an Economics classroom.
One year 13 student, Hannah, was especially attached to a sleek orange pen she accidentally picked up towards the back of the LGB Secondary Library.
You see, it became her lucky pen – that’s the one. We all have it. We can all relate. But Hannah knew that all pens have an expiration date… a deadline, if you will. And so, she did what she had to do, and she reached out – she made her own luck.
Through hope guised as laughter and jokes, she wrote the following e-mail, and sent it off to Zurich B Hotels, in search of something other than hard work and studying that would help her pass the semester, at the very least…
1: The email
2: The reply!
3: Good luck…
4: A lucky pen for a lucky student.
