Why I decided to be born on August 30

From Nane Aramyan's newly created blog

So I was comfortably placed in my mother's belly, and I was in no way determined to implement a change of environment. It was so good there, so warm with free nourishment and transport. I only noticed one strange regularity: several times a day (basically in the mornings and evenings) I heard some things addressed to me in a not so soft voice. They were not childish things, but I realized that they were good things, and that is why I always reacted that voice by kicking. I remember only one word from what he said nearly 10000000 times: Papa. Out of curiosity I will call him just like that.          

But one day my mother, father and I decided to watch a film. I also wanted to watch but I only had to be satisfied with listening to the sounds of the film and my father's jokes. To speak frankly even that was enough for me to understand that it was a sad film. To get rid of that sad mood I decided to kick my mother several times in order to attract attention, but maybe I must have done something wrong as she not only turned the TV off but they also moved me out of that comfortable environment with all the best conveniences into a larger and strange place which was full of numerous challenges. I accept these challenges and I myself challenge all young people to provide me with new sisters and brothers.
