Chance
I buy lottery impulsively. Will walk into any shop that isn't crowded and plonk $2 down. I even bought some when I was in Perth! But the one thing is, I never bother to match them with the results. So I let all these little pieces of hope gather in strange places - folded in between hard cash, some in my laptop bag, others in the toilet - mostly dug absently out of pockets and left somewhere 'safer', in the kitchen drawer where I keep drugs (legal ones of course) - until the big one makes enough noise and then I gather them hopes all up and looked up http://www.singaporepools.com.sg/ for the results. The thing is, prizes in Singapore are only valid 90 days from draw date! What if? I don't quite get it. Why do I not care?

You should consider writing as a career. This particular line is brilliant:
"So I let all these little pieces of hope gather in strange places"
Very, very nice.
Waste time in Mercer lah.
