Sooo, I'm no longer posting here. The only purpose for me to keep this account is to join communities and talk there. I don't know why but right now I prefer using Blogger. If you want to reach me, I'm on twitter, facebook, and blogger:

Myspace is so over, so I'm not providing that link since I rarely use it.

This is my new LJ.
I'm never satisfied,
So I had to make a new one
With a new username.

So booyah!

First of All:

These past two days have been hard in more ways than one. And I hate to be writing about this now but people are making me angry and I just need to let go. Yesterday, television personality Ed McMahon died. Known for being on the Tonight Show, and for me I know him as that funny guy in the Cash 4 Gold commercial. I know more of his work, its just that that was the latest thing and the one I more remember. Then today, Farrah Fawcet, known for her role as one of the beautiful Charlie's Angels and Michael Jackson, known for being the King of Pop have both died today.

About two sides of Journalism:

The news about Michael first broke on TMZ, which they said that he went into cardiac arrest. The ambulance arrived and they said he wasn't breathing. They tried to revived him on the ambulance but there was no response. He later died at the age of 50. My mom, around the time TMZ reported it, told me they confirmed it on the radio. Yet, as I go tell my grandmother she's shocked as hell. Like she didn't know. She sits and watches MSNBC and CNN all day. I watch it for awhile with her and they continued to report that he was still at the hospital. Saying that he couldn't breathe and they couldn't resuscitate him. I thought to myself, how long does it take for someone to die after not being able to breathe at all? So my grandma reminded me about some things on journalism.

When someone is said to be dead, major television news networks are not allowed to, and not going to report a death until the parents or the family have officially seen the body. It's a sign of respect and that is what's suppose to be done. Especially of a person of high rank such as Michael Jackson. TMZ on the other hand, is an internet site that has no real boundaries. They said it first, and I honestly don't think that they would lie about something like that.

I have read somethings that said  "Well I'm not believing it until CNN says it". And the worst thing I read on that level was "Michael Jackson ain't dead....yet. Stop reading twitter and watch CNN"

Now you see how journalism works. So next time think about that before you judge a death story like that.

Bad words:

Also with this story, I've read a lot of things that piss me off. I won't go into detail about each but you get the picture.

In Travis Garland's status on facebook, it simply says pray. Someone, the first comment, said "I will pray for you" As in pray for TG...

"He stole Farrah Fawcett's thunder"

"Nobody cared about FF, not the black people anyways"

"So glad that fucking child molester is dead. Karma, bitch"

"I thank God that Britney is still with us!!!"

"It's like Anna Nicole. We all sorta saw it coming. But that doesn't mean it's still not incredibly sad and tragic. Those kids of his."

"You're all so funny. Worry about your own lives, not some asshole u never met."

I'll stop there. I wish I could leave this on a better note, but I can't.

How can you declare this love
When you don't me for who I am
I suggest that you stop fooling yourself.
For that I will make you regret
All of the good things you've said about me

Because I've played in this game before
And I know all the rules & all of the outcomes
I've been played for days
And I've seen it all unfold.

I've seen it as good for the time I examine the person's vanity 
Then it could take the wrong turn
The lust might be bad for the short term
Maybe bad for the long term
With me, there aint no tellin'

So before you make the judgement
On if you quote unquote LOVE me or not
Get to really know me first

'Cause on some real shit,
You may regret every good thought
That you have ever had of me.

To my dear stranger,
My love can only place itself into fate’s eyes
And my heart can’t take but so many pain and lies,
I need to find a love that wont put me in any danger.
But this constant seek and find for positive attention just leads to my anger,
And strangely, for you to never notice me would be to my despise
Even though you appear to be no different from these other guys
There’s no possibility you will be my life changer.
Then your warm welcoming smile and your willingness to speak teased the chains of my insecurities apart
Leading to a constant exchange of our thoughts and feelings that never ceased to amaze.
You remind me everyday that our bond was not to late, it’s never to late
To turn a complete stranger into a person so dear to your heart
That molded a love so unique and divine that would keep everyone else in a haze.
Concluding that cupid’s delayed release of his arrows was so worth the wait.
