Bill Morgan’s life has been full of luck – good and bad. He should have died in June 1998 and for 14 minutes he did. But somehow doctors managed to revive him after he had a heart attack and spent 15 days in a coma. Mr. Morgan, then 37 and living in a caravan park in Melbourne's outer suburbs, was dubbed a 'medical miracle'.
Bill Morgan decided to try his luck at the lottery. He purchased a scratch-off ticket and instantly won a car – worth about A$30k at the time. Bill was expectedly overjoyed.
This lucky turn of events soon caught the interest of a Melbourne news station. They decided to cover Bill’s story, and this is where things get really interesting. While filming a reenactment of his win, Bill purchased another scratch-off ticket that would prove to be his biggest surprise yet: He had just won A$250k, right on live television.
The extraordinary win and the subsequent call to his fiancee to tell her she could buy a house was shown on Nine's evening news in Melbourne, and then around the world via CNN and the BBC. When Daily Mail Australia contacted Mr. Morgan, now 59, to tell him he was a star all over again, he said he still buys scratchies - but hasn't had that same kind of luck with lotto or his health

إنها استعارة جسدية تمثل إحباط تشين الخانق بعد مشاجرة مع أحد معلميها تركتها تبكي. بعد سنوات من قمع المشاعر لتجنب الوقاحة، أصبح تصميم تشين هو التعبير الحرفي عن صراعها الداخلي للتعبير عن رأيها.
