It's 2008... And The Monkey Cage is only posting its New Year's entry 8 days after we bade goodbye to the Year Of The Special-agent (go figure...) and welcomed the Year Of The Rat into our calendars. So what if this post came 8 days late as compared to other popular blogs some of which display the words, Happy, New and year right at the stroke of 12 in the morning? Are monkeys supposed to be punctual? Ok, that may not have been discussed before but the answer is clear now i guess... Actually, there is a reason to the 8-day delay and that is because those 8 days were spent reminiscing on 8 memorable happenings of the year 2007.
CHAPTER 2008 : 07 IN 8 SENTENCES
-The Monkey Cage came to life!
-Christmas celebrations were a blast in some settlement claimed to be that of the people who originated from the land of Luis Figo.
-It is discovered that blonde Revlon hairdye is potentially life-threatening.
-Studies show that examinations can never build a mutual relationship with our best friend, sleep.
-By the end of 2007, alcohol still works the same way as it did when it was 1st invented.
-Had breakfast.
-Had lunch.
-Had dinner.
-Let me add a bonus sentence... Toilets were utilised last year.
Ok, I admit the last few sentences are lame. But well, as long as they happened then I guess they qualify to be mentioned... Note that they are not labelled as the MOST memorable happenings of the year. They are JUST memorable. Don't tell me you don't remember wether you have been to the toilet or consumed a piece of bread within the last period of 365 days? Speaking of the measure of days, all of the moments mentioned happened within the last week of 2007 which is probably less then 20 days ago but do I care? It still happened last year and they are in my memory... So alas, there u have 2007.
Yeah it's 8 days late.. but better late than never right? HAPPY NEW YEAR PEOPLE!
