A lucky charm
One day, when I was seven years old, me and my sister were playing. We were running around the house. It was really funny. When suddenly my sister barged into the mirror. I screamed really loudly. When my mother heard it, she ran to us…
Fortunately nothing happened to her that day. But two weeks later when we went skating, my sister fell and broke her hand very badly. She went to the hospital for an X- ray and she was given a bandage. But that wasn´t enough. She lost her favourite lucky charm, her four-leaf clover,while she was going back from hospital. She was very unhappy because it was a present from our grandma. She got the new one on her next birthday but it wasn´t the same lucky charm.
A horseshoe brought me luck
There is a farm near my house. Horses walk around every day which makes me happy because I like horses. One day I went to work in the morning and found a horseshoe. I was very happy and I hung it on the wall in my garage. I was waiting to see what would happen but nothing changed. But a month later. I got a letter from my uncle in Canada. I hadn't heard anything about him for a long time! I was very curious so I opened the letter quickly. It was an invitation to Canada. What a surprise! I have always wanted to visit this beautiful country and now I have a chance to go there. I didn't hesitate and replied to my uncle´s letter. So finally the horseshoe brought me luck!





Just a few bad coincidences
One afternoon I was preparing for a celebration. I wanted to see if I looked good, so I took my mirror. Then I went to put it back on the table. When I was leaving the house, I remembered that I didn't have a gift, so I went back for it. I was really stressed because I was late so I snagged my coat in the mirror and it fell down. It was broken. I just stood and looked at it. I almost forgot to take my present. A few days later it happened. I was hurrying from school to catch the bus but I missed it. I had to walk home. On my way home I saw my boyfriend kissing the girl I know very well. I was completely broken. The next day I splitted up with him. Was it the mirror which brought me bad luck?

When black cat does not mean black day
Once upon a time there lived a girl named Christy who had a very happy life. Everything went well for her and she had many friends. But one day she met a black cat on her way home. According to local legend, this meant bad luck. However, Christy decided not to let the superstition sway her and didn't worry that something bad could happen to her. But the next day ,the next day became the worst day of her life! Firstly, she forgot to take her snack, so she was hungry. Secondly, she had a very bad argument with her best friend Laura. Later she got a bad grade in English and finally she missed the bus, so she had to walk home alone. It was getting dark and Christy was scared. Suddenly she saw the same cat crossing the street. The cat stopped and looked at Christy. Cat's eyes were shining so bright and friendly that Christy remained calm. She started believing that her situation could be better. And indeed, she met her father on her way home, so they stopped at the restaurant to buy her favourite pizza. When she came home, her friend Laura was waiting for her to apologise and the next day Christy got A from English. So you shouldn't believe in everything that people say.
Lila´s heritage
Evergreen Glen was a small town hidden among the dark forests. It was the place where the superstition about a four-leaf clover was born. The tailor Elowen was said to have discovered the mystical power of the four-leaf clover. She crafted the small charm adorned with beautiful green four-leaf clover and wore it every day on her neck. Other people noticed her symbol. They liked it so much that they adopted it as a symbol of good fortune.
Many years later a young girl named Lila stumbled upon something while tidying the attic. She took it from the dusty floor and looked at it closer. She was looking at a beautiful green four-leaf clover charm She didn't know that it belonged to her great grandma. She took it, cleaned and hung it around her neck. A few days later she bought a lottery ticket. Time to time she used to win a small amount of money. But that evening, while she was checking the winning numbers she found out that she had almost won 100 000 pounds. She was so happy! Later, when she searched for some photos in her family album she found a photo of her grandma with a four-leaf clover around her neck. She knew that great grandma´s pendant brought her luck.



Forecast of the rooster
.One dark night when two people in love, Maggie and Scoot were walking around a cemetery after watching a horror film. Suddenly they heard something usual, a rooster crowing. Nothing special, but then they thought about it -“rooster crowing in the middle of the night” . It's a little bit weird, but they didn't care and walked away. The next morning they had breakfast and they started their ordinary day. When they started working, they heard the news on their local radio: “Yesterday - Friday 13 …
Yesterday, Friday the 13th, some people burgled a few graves in a local cemetery, stole precious things and damaged the graves. Maggie and Scot were lucky they hadn't seen these burglars because they could attack and hurt them. Scot hasn't thought about this accident but Maggie often gets frozen when they walk along this place.
