WOW! I loved to have found this forum! I had no idea my adventures with the 11 were so popular!!!
OK, here's my story. I'm César, from Sao Paulo Brasil.
First time the 11 "hit" me was on the 11th day after Christmas: 01/05/2012. I was minding my own business at the balcony and I noticed Pres. Obama was delivering a speech on CNN. And I noticed CNN was showing 11:10.
I already knew about the 11s in Obama, so I thought "no way!!!" and ran for my cell phone to shoot it - just in case he ended the speech at precisely 11:11. What happened?
Here's the video LOL:

From then on, the 11 started popping up everywhere. 11:11 in clocks, 11 here, 11 there. And I started "searching" for more elevens in my life.
And it came as a shocker. His a summary so this post won't be too extensive:
- Big things in my life happened at 11-related ages: 11) parents got divorced; 22) I graduated as an Engineer; 29) Moved from my hometown to Sao Paulo, first time alone; 33) started my own business; 38 (now) - my awareness.
- I was born in 06/12/1973, which sums up "29"
- I opened my second store last year. Due to several delays that costed me a lot of money, my store was finally ready only on 11/10/2011. So - somehow - I was "forced" to open it on 11.11.11.
- The store is located in a Shopping Mall in Sao Paulo. Store number? 2111
- On 01/19 (=11) I got home crazy for a free pizza with my coupons. Needed 12, right? There were only 11 coupons. So I called the place and asked for a pizza. Do you know how much did it cost? R$ 22.00 LOL
After that I started searching the internet for this 11 thing and eventually I found this forum.
Thanks guys! Let's enjoy the 11 ride because the 21/12/2012 is right around the corner. OOOPS another 11 with solstice at 11:11 GMT ROFLMAO!!!!
