War. War never changes.
I am roughly as single as I was 8 years ago. Which is to say, quite single.
I live with mostly the same people I lived with 8 years ago. Two of the original flatmates have moved out, a third moved in and then out, and two have moved in over the past 8 years. One has remained through it all (the landlord, unsurprisingly).
I work the same job now that I worked 8 years ago, though I had a brief foray into other jobs about 5-6 years ago. I previously and currently work as a bookkeeper and crisis manager at my father's company. I spent about a year working in customer-facing tech support, but found that dealing with the general public, especially in a capacity that generally exposed me to frustrated people, was miserable.
I am roughly as uneducated as I was 8 years ago. I briefly returned to college to seek a networking certification, but because I'm sort of trapped by circumstance in my current job (where such a certification is not applicable or relevant), I abandoned the pursuit as a waste of money and time.
I play less video games than I did 8 years ago, but more for a lack of a solid community than for changing interests. I play more tabletop games than I did 8 years ago, but more from success in finding a solid community through trial and error than changing interests. I still play forum mafia, though a mere shadow compared to the glory days of 2008-2009 HG, but again, this is primary a result of the absence of solid community and not due to changing interests.
Despite everything, it's still me.
