When Tupac turned thirteen, we were homeless on that day. His theater club gave him a party. Sometimes I do wonder that if I hadn't gone on with fool-heartedness, my son would have had an easier transition into this life. But at least I was able to keep art there. Otherwise he would've had no way to get his feelings out.

Kamala Harris

I remember when my mother, Shyamala Harris, bought our first home. I was thirteen. She was so proud, and my sister and I were so excited. Millions of Americans know that feeling of walking through the front door of their own home for the first time - the feeling of reaching for opportunity and finding it.

Pay attention to 'teen' sound at the end; it can be confused with 'thirty' when not enunciated clearly.

Counting Accuracy

Avoid saying 'thirteen o'clock'; it is not standard as the 24-hour clock resets after twelve.

Not Actual Time
