Hi everyone!
Well I don't know how you all feel, but myself it feels to me like we have lots of new members and old members alike but I don't feel too familiar with a lot of you! So I thought it'd be nice to have a thread to introduce ourselves, chat and tell each other a bit about ourselves! I will go first.
So, I'm Stacey, I'm 23 years old. I live in Derbyshire, England. I just moved here last month after spending 5 years away at uni, and at various places around England. I'm a HUGE ass Michael Jackson fan, obviously! I adore him, I love all era's, I think he was mega fine throughout! I have a weakness for the curls though in all honesty! :lol: I can't choose a favourite song or video, I love them all! I'm a classically trained singer, I'm a movie buff and I love reading!
So, how about you?!
Okay, so since I finally found the proper thread...
Hi. My name is Alexa, but I chose StageGlitter as my username. I live in the U.S, and I became a fan of Michael Jackson when he passed away. (I know). I was about 8 or 9 years old and still in 4th grade when he passed. When the media went crazy about his death, I was very, very confused on who this man was that made the world seem to stop everything that it was doing to grieve. I remember wondering if he was a very, very, very important official or something (lol). It turns out, according to my parents, he was Michael Jackson, a famous international pop star. Then, I did some research about him and discovered the music that he made during his life. The TV helped with a lot of that discovery, as in 2009, MTV had constant (I mean unstoppable) loops of his short films and music on its channel. They blew my mind! His talent had to be have given by God because it was out-of-this-world amazing. My sister liked him for a while, but after some years, she started to drift away as a fan. I still am a fan after ten years, and I am glad to have found this forum and other communities where fans can discuss about him or other relating things.
In my personal time, I like to draw, write, read, or make things with needles or crochet hooks. I am studying to be a pharmacy technician and I want to become a professional musician one day. Soon, I will graduate with an Associate's degree from my local community college.
I am a quiet person, but I like to talk to people. I am happy with the merch I have, but soon I want to buy more. I have the 2007 Ebony magazine with pictures and the interview, I have an original 2009 tribute magazine that also featured columns on Farrah Fawcett, I have a Bad album, and somewhere I have a Thriller album cover in a gold frame (but I might have lost that). I also like to learn some of MJ's dance routines when I have free time (based on playthroughs of the "MJ: The Experience" video games from 2010 that are still uploaded on YouTube. (And yes, I write MJ fanfiction. I am working on a Captain EO story at the moment.)
I don't like being here on the internet (for a long list of reasons), but whenever I get the chance, I will stop by here and say hello and conversate with other fans. Nice to meet all of you, and I hope we all take the age-old messages that Michael repeated to us to make this world a better place.
