Shocked and Sad...

When I was small, I didn't have any idol and I didn't listen to music. The only songs I knew were National Anthem and school songs. All my friends were into somebody but I was more interested in catching fish in the drains, climbing trees, pretending to be in war in our backyard etc...

Only when my sibblings and I started pretending to be dancing queens did I learn more about the music world. We became interested in Michael Jackson and tried to imitate his dancing moves. We tried to do his famous moonwalk and then the 'AW' moves but always ended up laughing til we rolled on the floor. We were just not meant to be on the dance floor...

When my friend woke me up from my sleep at 7am this morn telling me of MJ's passing, I jumped up from my bed like a mummy that just came to live! I thought it was a joke until I heard her teary voice. OMG! The King of Pop has died! Shocking & Devasting news! I couldn't help but felt sad too... *sob sob*


Although MJ was never 'officially' my idol, I did own a few of his CDs and also watched his biography on the tv. He was the only superstar I 'grew up' with. He was part of my teenage memory!


The radio station has been playing MJ's songs since early morn. Listening to them, they really bring back a lot of memories.... *Heal The World now playing in the background*



When he was alive, he was the child molester. Now that he died, he became the king of Pop once again... Sigh... it's sad that that's the way life works - one only gets appreciated after he/she is dead....
