Today at the office,everyone were talking about tomorrow It was so funny,someone is going to get married in Vegas because it''s a lucky day!
It is also according to the Chinese Lunar Calandar,because there are some days you can get married some not.Hard to explain,but next to the date,there is usually some printed words on each side of the number,the left side tell you each day the luck things to do,and the right side,things you can't do. Nobody really follows it except some budhists, So tomorrow there will be a lot of weddings.
What are you doing tomorrow?

Eight is considered a lucky number in Chinese culture because it sounds like the word "prosper" or "wealth".

To show how lucky the Chinese think 8 is, the Olympic games in Beijing next year will start on 8/8/08 at exactly 8:08 PM!

that's cool...even cooler that you knew that!

I didn't know about the 7/7/07 thing being a big deal until about a week ago, because we've been so busy with family stuff lately. I do think it's nice to pick a day that's special to be married, and lucky sevens would work for me
