It's happened....

It's been a year since MJ died. June 25th. :( The year went by so fast and already a whole year without Michael. I miss him. :(

RIP Michael Jackson.

    I know, I can't believe it's been a year.

    The day it happened, I was at the computer doing some random nonsense, and I heard the newscasters on tv saying that he had been rushed to the hospital. I stayed with that channel (CNN maybe) until the very first unconfirmed reports that he had died, and then I tried to switch around.

    LOL I actually remember yelling "NO!" out loud, and "Michael Jackson is NOT fucking DEAD!!" and I was just shaking my head, eyes all big, tears and all. It was surreal. I was utterly speechless (insert long-winded-Cel joke here).

    I fell in love with MJ around 4th grade. I BEGGED my mom to buy me this spiral notebook with his pic on it (in that damn yellow sweater from the Thriller days, back when he was still brown), and that was that. LOL never be another like him, that's for sure.

    I remember him with the Jackson 5.
    I was just a kid but I thought he was great.
    I guess that shows my age.LOL
    My daughter called me from work to inform me that he had died and I was shocked.
    It was certainly a sad day.

    I remember the exact tv show and what the people on it looked like that day! :o At first I didn't really react I was really calm about it cause it seemed so unreal. Then when they did the memorial I cried. :P

    I was sad that day too. Didn't believe it for a few days. But I think it's sad how Farrah was ignored. :(

    I guess with Farrah (may she rest in peace), people had seen it coming for so long that it wasn't much of a huge shock. She was beloved by millions, but there had been a few prime-time specials showing preparations for her death, many articles, tv shows...people were pretty prepared for it, like an elderly grandfather passing away from a long terminal illness vs. a younger seemingly healthier family member dying unexpectedly.

    It was still really sad to see her die, but there had already been a great deal of press about her IMPENDING death, so when the time finally came, it didn't shock the system the way MJ's did. Also, in a way it was comforting to know that she wasn't in anymore pain & was no longer suffering. MJ seemed to be starting over fresh and was primed for a major comeback, and it just felt so abrupt.
