Looks Can Be Deceiving

Presentation is the key to success.
Look at SMU, a business orientated University.
They're protrayed as hip and happening, capable of producing successful young people. This is done through their brillant marketing, as expected of a business U.
Chinese New Year. The day of the red packets.
Presentation, too, is the key to everything.
I recieved 13 red packets this year, 7 long, 6 short.
Somehow I link the long ones to success. Success being more money :P
Of these, I received 4 red packets with $4 inside. This may seem little, but take into consideration that 5 are the big ones. 3 from my brothers, 1 from dad and 1 from grandma. So it's effectively 8 packets from relatives, 4 >$10, 4 = $4. 1/2 of it then.
So, out of the 4, 3 of them are long red packets.
But somehow opening them and seeing the 2 purple $2 didn't make me feel so bad than seeing the stubby ones and finding $4 inside.
Looks can be deceiving and presentation is the key to success. :)
