When i was a child, i hated friday the 13th, i thought cos i was born on it, i was jinxed!!

As an adult, i believe Friday 13th is a very lucky day, as its the day the world was blessed with me! :)

Just found out a lil bit of info in regards to same day of my birthday, Friday 13th October..

" The Knights Templar were a monastic military order founded in Jerusalem in 1118 C.E., whose mission was to protect Christian pilgrims during the Crusades. Over the next two centuries, the Knights Templar became extraordinarily powerful and wealthy. Threatened by that power and eager to acquire their wealth, King Philip secretly ordered the mass arrest of all the Knights Templar in France on Friday, October 13, 1307 - Friday the 13th."

Yep, I saw that in a documentary. Very interesting story.

"The modern basis for the aura that surrounds Friday the 13th stems from Friday October the 13th, 1307. On this date, the Pope of the church in Rome in Conjunction with the King of France, carried out a secret death warrant Against "the Knights Templar". The Templars were terminated as heretics, never again to hold the power that they had held for so long. There Grand Master, Jacques DeMolay, was arrested and before he was killed, was tortured and crucified.

Superstitions swirling around Friday as being lucky or unlucky have existed since ancient times, beginning with the northern nations. Ancient Romans dedicated the sixth day of the week to their beautiful, but vain, goddess Venus, so, when the Norsemen adopted the Roman method of naming days, they naturally adopted Venus as their name for the sixth day of the week. Their closest translation for Venus, Frigg, or Freya, eventually evolved into Friday, a day they considered to be the luckiest day of the week."

the number 13 in many many cultures is actually a lucky number. My friday was the best in a long time. Went to work, had a commander's call at 1130, a barbeque from 1200 until 1420, got released after that (which in my squadron RARELY happens), came back to my dorm and relaxed until 1900 when I watched the new Friday the 13th movie, went out to eat after that, got home and relxed some more until i went to bed. pretty awesome!
