many chinese couples have pre booked this day for their wedding day.  the number 8 is significant with prosperity.  
funny thing, a fortune teller said, triple 8s are bad.  888, means too much prosperity, but also the numbers added together are significant too. 8 + 8 + 8 = 24, which sounds like an easy/fast death.  kinda makes sense, in daoist and buddhist believe that everything is balanced and equal.  u prosper too much, the pay off is u probably will die early in life...  
haha, stupid supersticision...

			Freakin' funny. I swear each time I wake up in the middle of the night and look at the alarm clock it is 4:44. I once even ignored the clock and waited a few minutes........ guess what? it was 4:44.
 But I look at it this way 4x3 is 12. A good number. So is 8. Nothing bad really happens, but I can see it getting to some people. International hotels have no 13th floor or a 4th floor. There are other numbers from other cultures that are not used as well.
 
 13 being the Christian one is a big one here. However, in the Sikh culture, 13 is a lucky number.
