Well, to be honest, I am not a lucky person. So when I attend some programs, it is hard for me to win and receive a gift. However, when it comes to something I received for free, a special cake from the bakery is at the top of my mind. It happened about four months ago. On that evening, I went to the bakery near my home, which is about a five-minute walk, to buy a birthday cake for my 19th birthday party. After that, I attended a promotional program with a lot of gifts. For a moment, I decided to participate, and shortly after, I received a special Easter birthday cake for free. I was extremely surprised and excited about it. It's a chocolate layer cake, my favorite, decorated with icing and some candies. This cake is special for me. It's a medium Tom cake. Tom is my favorite cartoon. Therefore, the Tom cake is very special for me. One of the memorable points is that it was free.
