remembering | michael jackson

i woke up expecting to just catch bits and pieces of mj's memorial (i assumed it was done hella early).

how perfect that i woke up in time to catch the entire thing.

i think...his death has been surreal...even today...and it didn't hit me until i realized his brothers were carrying michael's casket into the spotlight at staples center. wow.

i teared up | cried | laughed | smiled | reminisced the whole time.

didn't expect to cry, heh.

many moments were perfect tribute. these were the most touching (to me):
- usher's performance
- jennifer hudson
- queen latifah reciting dr. maya angelou's poem
- brooke shields
- john mayer on the guitar (i LOVED this)
- jermaine
- heal the world (judith hill is my new fav artist)
- smokey robinson
- shaheen jafargholi

didn't expect paris to speak, and when she did, like many, it was all over and i teared.

i love michael for his gift of music, entertainment and humanitarianism.
i'll remember him for that.

<3
