080808

Lucky No.8? No of good fortune? The number 8, 8th day of the 8th month in year 2008. That’s three 8s in a row…

Apparently so, 8 which sounds like “FA” – meaning prosper or wealth. Many Chinese around the world normally has it that whatever associated with 8 would be a good thing. Often the case, it’s a DREAM no. associated by the rich or poor (on their mobile phones, password, atm pin, house no & etc).

But then of course, it’s CHINA’s BIG DAY today – ONE World ONE Dream (同一个世界, 同一个梦想), BEIJING 2008 OLYMPIC GAMES.


A significant day, triumph for all CHINESE mankind. The anticipation of CHINESE peoples all around the world (not just CHINA only) on the BEIJING 2008 OLYMPICS that will kick off on what I call it – what a day & time – 08.08.08 @ 8.08pm.

And you asked what’s so great about this 08.08.08 @ 8.08pm after all? And you may asked why do these Chinese fellas always have this superstitious inclination in them that this number will surely bring prosperity, auspiciousness & wealth?

Oh well, auspicious or not, 08.08.08 @ 8.08pm will tell when BEIJING 2008 unleash it’s Olympic SPIRIT & POWER.
