I have a student who wrote the following in her journal entry today.  I checked as much of her info as I currently have access to (her address and her birthday), and her claims have proven true so far:
My favorite number is 13.  Most people think that it's unlucky, but for me it's all luck.  I was born on 9/13.  When I was born, my head was 13 inches and I was the 13th baby born in the hospital that day.  I live in house #913 in a room that is 9x13...I will also graduate in 2013, and my 18th birthday is Friday the 13th, 2013.  
I just though it was pretty cool.
Hey, that IS cool, actually :)
ReplyDeleteI know a few people who believe what are commonly known as unlucky numbers to be their luckiest....go figure!
