Model Answer 1:
Life is filled with occasions but most of them are ordinary. The event of having 
an iPhone is very special to me as I bought the device with my own earnings. 
I am a college student and work at a call centre here, in Singapore. I live with 
my family and fortunately, I bear all of my educational expenses. So, it is a bit 
difficult for me to arrange such a huge sum of money to buy an iPhone. It took 
over 1000 $ to get the phone. Being a techno-centric teenager, I am fond of 
the latest electronic gadgets and accordingly try to have those in my collection. 
Despite my family being wealthy, I prefer to bear all my expenses and 
consequently did not ask for money to my parents to get the phone. So, when I 
bought the phone, it was a very special occasion to me. 
After buying the phone I made the first phone call to my mom to let her know 
about the purchase. Then I made the very second call to my father and he was 
pleased as well about the event. I reached home with some traditional foods 
and fruits to celebrate the event. I am the youngest member in my entire 
family and I am learning and earning simultaneously. But working in a call 
centre as a part-timer is truly a hefty task. The call pressures were unbearable 
while the number of daysoff were limited. I had to undergo stressful situations. 
On the other side, it was difficult for me to save money for the phone after all 
the expenses. It took nearly seven months for me to arrange all the money for 
this iPhone 6. Besides, my parents were happy that their son has bought the 
phone with his own expenses. They were, in fact, very proud of me. 
When I went home with the iPhone, I was surprised that there were many 
people to congratulate me. It was not the event that officially I became the 
owner of an iPhone 6 rather they came to inspire me on my success on saving 
the money to buy a pricy phone. I found my maternal and paternal uncles, 
aunties, some my father’s friends, and my grandparents. I actually was amazed 
at their felicitations for me. All of them praised me highly and blessed me too 
for the future success. It appeared that I am a kid of six years and they are 
advising me. I was glad, indeed, for their cordial appreciation to my attempt. 
My father is a rich businessman in Singapore and one of the elites in our 
locality. He can do any legal thing whatever he wants and arranging an iPhone

of latest model for his son (me) is a minor issue for a man like him. But I 
wanted to have the phone with my own earning. I am highly attracted to the 
electronic gadgets and try to keep in touch with them. But it appears shameful 
to me to ask for money to parents every time to get the latest version of those 
gadgets. So, I planned that if I save some money from my daily expense, I could 
get the iPhone 6 that I have desired for a long. Accordingly, I saved dollars for 
long seven months and finally my dream came true. I bought the iPhone 6 with 
my own money, my heard earned money. So, the event was very special to me
