I am obsessed with entering competitions, and I’ve won quite a few by now (I got free tickets to the same music festival seven years in a row due to my dedication). I love hearing stories of what others win and how they use their winnings.

    • I was the winner of my school’s science competition, I’d made a volcano that could emit “lava” (baking soda and vinegar)
    • At school I won a contest where we had to design posters for movies that didn’t exist, and the winner would get theirs put on the wall
    • Lots of high-speed go-karting sessions!
    • Not sure if this counts as a competition, but I had an admin of an art website select my art and feature it on the front page for a while which resulted in it getting almost 500,000 views (I remember panicking wondering why I suddenly got so many messages in my inbox!)
