2008 Mural

So Happy NEW YEAR everyone! 2008 is over and 2009 has started.

To celebrate the new year Ive made a mural representing some of the important figures, movies, personalities and controversies that happened this year.

We see some of the greats that passed away: Paul Newman, Bernie Mac and Heath Ledger. We see some of the politics great ones in Barack Obamas triumph, Fidel Castro stepping down in Cuba and Ingrid Betancourt being released after being kept hostage in Colombia for over 5 years.
Some of the greatest movies from 2008 WallE, The Dark Knight.
In sports we had some great accompishments in 2008: Michael Phelps winning 8 gold medals in the olympics, Usain Bolt breaking records in Track and Field and of course who can forget the miracle catch of David Tyree in the Super Bowl...
And in music and pop culture, the Jonas Brothers dominated concerts around the world, David Cook was the first ever rocker to win American Idol and Gossip Girl caught the attention of many girls around the globe...

All in all 2008 was a great year, and Im sure 2009 is going to be a better one.

I hope you keep visiting Lankuriosidad every day or at least every week, again, I hope all of you have a Happy New Year!
