I know, I was totally stylin'my grandma will get a kick out of this one . . .
Year: probably somewhere in between 1991-1994
Age: 8-11 years old
Memory: made-up give-a-way
One day on my way home from school, I got the idea to do my very own door-to-door random give-a-way. Me and my friend (sadly, I'm not even sure who was with me) randomly stopped by some of our neighbors houses and told them that we were doing a give-a-way and if their name was drawn from our bag of names, they would win a prize.
After we had collected the names, we decided who we wanted to win . . . no need to randomly draw the name from a bag. It was this old couple who lived a few blocks away. I had no idea who they were, but I remember feeling bad for them because they were so old, so I wanted them to win.
The prize, you ask? After searching my room trying to find something for the prize, we settled on my old walkman radio that I didn't use anymore.
We walked back over to their house and announced them the winner and gave them their prize.
I think they liked it...even though they seemed a bit confused.
lol! that's awesome!
