Monkey still recalled the evening where everyone were shoved a glass of champagne out of sudden
thinking it was another blinding....I was about to sip it...until...."wait wait wait hold it..."

tears of joy streamed down my cheek and waves of congrats were heard through the venue = J&J's crib

30 seconds later...everyone were bz tweeting/FB-ing their status....hahahahahaha
