1. Sample narrative of raising a clay pig #1
On my tenth birthday, my mother surprised me with a clay pig. The pig wore a light pink coat, with big sparkling eyes. Below its pink nose was the mouth, where I could put money. During Tet, whenever I received lucky money from grandparents, parents, or relatives, I fed the pig with those 'coins'. Sometimes, I fed the pig with other amounts of money, such as rewards from my parents or academic incentives. I cherished this lean pig dearly. Thanks to it, I learned how to save and bought many drawing tools for my art lessons.

2. Sample narrative about nurturing a clay pig #2
During the recent Lunar New Year, my father bought me a lovely clay pig. She wore a shiny yellow coat, adorned with strips of sparkling colors. Between her ears, she wore a small green bow. On her body, there was a small slot where I could put money. During Tet, I used many lucky money envelopes received from relatives to feed my little pig. Occasionally, I fed the pig with money from my parents or grandparents to help her grow. Day by day, I grew more attached to the pig my father bought. I silently thanked the clay pig for helping me learn how to save and appreciate money. Thanks to her, this summer vacation, I was able to 'contribute' a small part to my family's beach trip.
3. Sample narrative about nurturing a clay pig #3
During a Tet market trip, my grandmother bought me a clay pig. This clay pig was as big as a soccer ball. It was made of clay, dressed in a coat of sea blue. There was a small slot in its mouth where I could insert money to feed it. Every time I achieved high marks or completed tasks well, my parents would reward me with small amounts of money, which I used to 'feed' my pig. During Tet, I saved birthday money or lucky money envelopes inside the pig. Over time, the pig became heavier. I cherished this clay pig dearly. It helped me save a large sum of money, enabling me to buy all the necessary study materials for the new school year.
