And for all of those who are wondering why they picked 08.08.08 at 08:00pm as the date and the time of the start of the olympics, well.... 8 in Chinese tradition depicts luck and prosperity. It shows harmonious balance. As you can see, no matter how you cut the number 8 symmetrically (whether horizontal or vertical), you will get equally divided portion.
Watching the opening ceremony and how wonderful it was made and organized by China made me proud of me being Chinese.
Watching team Philippines parade inside the Olympic Stadium in Beijing displaying the Philippine Flag made me proud of being a Filipino.
Go Team Philippines!!! Bring home the gold!!!!
