23!
by aaron on Nov.02, 2009, under School
So, as one can tell from the very name of my blog, I really like the number twenty-three. Although it may seem like I should have a complex reason for admiring it, the reason is really quite simple. In fourth grade, every student was given a number to help identify him/her when grading. Since I have a last name beginning with S, I was one of the last numbers in the class. Which number was I? Well, twenty-three of course! For some reason, I loved twenty-three from that point on. Whenever anyone would inquire about my favorite number, I would quickly tell them it was twenty-three, despite the fact that I had little reason to prefer it. Then, when the movie The Number 23 came out, I became excited. How cool is it for a movie to come out with the title and subject of your favorite number? Seeing the movie only propagated my love for the number twenty-three. Though I never have been and never plan to become as obsessed with twenty-three as Jim Carrey’s character is in The Number 23, I do plan on enjoying its presence whenever I can. Let’s just hope I don’t go crazy and start professing my adoration in the form of incoherent babbling.
