>What is in no. 8?

>Tagged by Genebei, I’m going numerical today focusing on number 8. My life seems to be attached to 8 in several instances. It’s the end number on years I remember as some of my milestones:

1978 – started school

1988 – hit by Cupid

1998 – revised application of a few theories after making wrong personal and professional moves

2008 – caught a positive turn-around; resolved to keep it that way

Guided by a belief that 8 is a lucky number, my father chose 8 as the date on my BC when he sorted a registration error.
