It's time for me to stop creepin on y'all...
Hi! I'm Devin, I'm new, and I'm gonna introduce myself to all of you fabulous shamoners.
I have the tendency to talk a lot, so FYT...
Click to viewSoooooo, it's safe to say that I was born a Michael Jackson fan. As a child I used to press my mother with burning questions like; "Mommy, what's Michael Jackson's favorite color?" I'm pretty sure HIStory was one of the first CDs we owned (that and Life After Death by the Notorious B.I.G., haha)...we were loyal vinyl users...and Invincible was the first CD I purchased with my own money. I'll never forget how proud my 11 year old self felt paying for an album with Michael's pretty face on it at Toys 'R Us, lol. I then remember locking myself in my room as soon as I got home and listening to the whole thing and getting HELLA freaked out by "Threatened" (What you have just heard sounds like the end of a particularly terrifying nightmare...it isn't. It's the beginning-beginning-beginning...WTF MJ WAY TO GIVE ME NIGHTMARES.)
Honestly, I could talk about Michael's role in my life forever. If you're feeling especially masochistic you could read the letter I wrote to him on ____mjfans____ : community.livejournal.com/____mjfans____/544187.html (YEAH MY OLD USERNAME WAS HOTDIVO95, WANNAFIGHTABOUTIT?!). It would be an understatement to say that his passing was a blow to me...but I am grateful for the huge outflux of support I've received from family and friends, and the fact that I'm at the point where I can find joy and comfort in celebrating his extraordinary life. You guys seem pretty much like the best community EVER...your sense of humor and all of the love and support you have for one another has helped me, a lurker, get through my bad imissmichael days. Through stalking your asses, I've discovered the wonders that are the MJ Macros, dun ber ber ber lee, and my favorite, BUTTERCUPADAYHEYHEYHEY. I look forward to becoming an active member of this kickass place, and am super excited to attend a PARTAY. =D
Peace and love guys! <3
