that made me feel REALLY sad. I mean WOW so many people. I still Miss him like it was that day.
yeah so do I I can hardly believe it's almost 6 months it's all been such a blur to me
My mom called me to watch CNN saying "they just took Michael Jackson to the Hospital"...and i wasnt really interested cuz the media was always doing that to Mike. Neverthe less, I sat there and watched whild *Wolf Blitzer* talked to reporters out at UCLA hospital. After he was pronounced *gone*, thats when i went to my computer...I wanted to search for news any news that said otherwise...But everywhere was like *according to TMZ...* I never liked TMZ so I wanted to find another source but all site were sayin *TMZ this...TMZ that...* and at one point my computer froze for like 10 min....
even Twitter was crashing...FB was not even functioning...it was Craziii!!! And I tried to come on here (MJJC)...I got as far as a warning page...that said there are too many users on this site...
Thankyou for sharing this...
L.O.V.E.

yeah I remember how I experienced everything that day I have trouble sleeping so I'd the night before gotten to sleep at a mental hour so only woke up early afternoon on the 25th, it seemed quite like a normal day for me but then at 9pm I put on my tea, watched friends on the e4 plus one channel & waited for tea after the 1st friends episode was over tea was nearly ready, I went down got tea, came back up with my tea to watch the 2nd friends episode then after it was finished went downstairs with my plate to wash it up.
As I'd nearly gotten down the stairs (which stop just outside the living room door (well where the door should be it fell off) mum say's Michaels been taken to hospital & I said "oh" she said I read it on teletext it doesn't say why he's in hospital all it says is MJ's been taken to hospital the ucla, what time it was & that he was planning for a comeback tour which had already been put back & that's it, it just said more details to follow.
I just washed my plate & cutlery & then headed upstairs I wasn't particularly worried at that point.
i went upstairs put on teletext nothing so I checked ceefax on the bbc (mum always calls ceefax teletext) so i thought maybe it was on there instead, I read it & nothing more was on there than what mum had told me.
I decided it can't be nothing serious then flipped through my freeview channels no interruptions to any tv shows or nothing!
I flipped through the digital radio channels on my freeview heard a bit of one of MJ's songs it was part way through but nothing was said afterwards (i presume they'd said something before they had played the song)
Then I though ohh yeah on freeview there's the bbc news 24 channel so i had a think & thought ahh i think it was channel 80 it's on (but i knew they had recently changed some freview channel numbers so wasn't sure if it still was channel 80) I went to channel 80 bbc news 24 was still on there & there was nothing about MJ & then all of a sudden i got this thought pop into my head out of the blue...
and this was it... "MJ has either just died or is about to die" i tried to shake it off and flipped through a few more channels on my freeview then I came across the sky news channel which i had forgotten we get on freeview & it was displaying the tmz site page saying Michael had died, I dropped to the floor (off of my bed) and sat there on my knees trying to read what it said on the screen, then I flung my hands to my face shaking thinking oh my god NOOOOOOOOO
and then I got up opened my bedroom door & mum was coming out of the bathroom & i said Michael's died she said she wasn't surprised (she'd always thought he'd die young she just hoped she'd be wrong)
I said at the moment it's still unconfirmed but that's what they're saying on tmz's website according to sky news
then I went back to my bedroom & watched the news for ages, at some point I put on the dangerous album & listened to gone too soon but only a small tear came from my eyes I was in too much shock.
It wasn't 'til a few days later that I really really started to cry & i've hardly stopped since then!
It still feels like yesterday to me.
it does to me too it's still raw the pain & so fresh in my memory it doesn't even feel like yesterday it barley feels like an hour or two ago!
How sad watching those fans chanting for Michael outside the hospital. This time he won't come out to greet and wave at the fans.
oh I know
it's ever so sad
I was on Kop message board , we were waiting for him to go to Dr.Klien you know the routine , we were laughing and joking that he should bring Blanket with him , and suddenly a new thread "an ambulance entered MJ's house" . it was like that for ten minutes then the site crashed , and then all the other MJ sites . I went to see what TMZ posted and whether they knew who was in trouble at the house , then they put this banner R.I.P Michael Jackson . I did not believe it, I counld not believe it , I switched to CNN , there was backstory , nothing about MJ , and then 15 minutes later the news started to come, LAtimes, CBS , abc confirmred still CNN and BBC were the last . God i hate that day so much , I was up for three days in row I could not believe what was hapening .
i could barely sleep for days afterwards either i know i have trouble sleeping at times but that really sent my sleeping pattern majorly awol
