Narrative:

I received a taxi instruction. Shortly; ATC asked if I was ready to go; I replied yes. They then gave me different taxi and departure clearance. I departed runway 23 as that was my understanding. However; shortly after departure; ATC indicated that I had departed via runway 23. They gave me a turn and altitude instruction. I followed; until clear of class D. After hearing the 'you departed runway 23' ATC comment; I began to question why I received this and what it meant. I believe it is possible that I was supposed to depart runway 27 via runway 23 intersection. I have not yet reviewed the ATC recording/archive; but I will to have a better understanding of what was communicated.
