"Death of icon". There, i saw it when i click on my MSN tab after i signerd out from my mailbox. My first reaction was 'WHAT!!!!' ANd then i click to read the article...
After seeing that, i couldnt think properly for 15mins. The shock...i've never been shocked and surprised like this before...it only sink in 15 mins later...my, oh my.
I had gone to sleep the night before at 3am reading articles abt Farah Fawcett's death. And now, to wake up, and see this...
I guess part of me going into 'blank' mode is due to my feelings. I was having a horrible mix of sadness, regret, sorriness, sympathy, surprise. I grew up listening to his songs, i grew up dancing along to his songs, i even imitated him a little to entertain my friends when i was younger. Then as i got older, i, shamefully, laughed along with others at MJ's evolving appearance, and felt abit annoyed at him for all the molestation charges. I was bad. It was not until i grew up more then i began to realz my view on things and accept him as what he is. And now..its too late...
After all, he is a brilliant entertainer. And the dances, the moves. And 'Thriller'.
I am sorry. May you rest in peace.
And Ms Fawcett, you have a very nice name, and although i never watched the original 'Charlie's Angel', i came to know u as an icon and respected you. may you rest in peace as well.
Trivia : I just remembered MJ did came to Brunei years ago when i am still very young. I remembered when i recalled that MJ had a tour in KL years ago. And i went to his concert, tho my memories of that concert are only left like this: We were around 200metres away from him...and i remember some artist opening up the concert. I had innocently thought that was MJ back then, but my dad said no, and soon.....MJ arrived on stage. Literally. Cos...the first thing was a spaceship...descending on stage. Then MJ came out of it. I was so mesmerised by the way he appeared that the only thing i remembered vividly from that night was him getting onstage...and a little incident where we argued over some drinks at the vending machine. =/
The concert was held in Jerudong Park, Brunei that time. Now MJ is gone, and Jerudong park is an empty and lifeless playground which had lost its glory in the past.

LOL. I loved Thriller. I remember the first time I saw it on tv when I was a tiny little kid. Scared the crap outta me. =.='' The last part of the video. Like WHAT THE HELL!!! *screams*
OK. Anyways. The death of Farrah was sad. I watched bits and pieces of how she documented her last few months alive. Touching stories.
The death of MJ was SHOCKING. First thing I saw when I woke up and I was like 'WTF' and started texting my friends. LOL. Sigh... Atleast now he can have a peaceful rest. His life was such a turmoil.
Oh wells. Everyone leaves. One day. :)
oh gosh... now that overratedcalamity has said & mentioned it, i do remember how freaked out i was when i saw the video as well... that time i think i didn't even dare to leave the lights off just because of the video...
i was so afraid of graveyards and zombies...
and now... sigh... all of the memories seemed to have come back just because of his departure...
