3 years ago today - Michael's This Is It Announcement

[Daryll748]

awwww to everyone here...

Where did the time go? It's weird, life without Michael feels like "so slow", but everything else is moving on so fast.... I'm not sure what I wish about the concert. I'm glad he was gonna do what he loved but I can't help but to feel that without "this is it" we would still have him here.....

Ohhh gosh… I Remember I was taking my last course in a 2 year college and I had the class the same time it was said Michael was gonna make announcement in London. So I skipped that class and went to the computer lab to watch it but it was said he was running a little late yeah right, a little late my…*** Lol! He then came on the stage over an hour after the supposed time One of the reasons I LOVE him- he doesnt care how long the media or anyone has to wait… its like him saying "I'm Michael Jackson B****… I'll take all the time I want"

And then the LIVE stream was crashing cuz lots of fans were using it and I started logging on different computers to see which computer will play the Live stream ppl. were lookin' at me like i was crazy but I didnt give a Darn! Ohh how I miss those days… I miss him sooo much.

3 years already? Goodness gracious, I cannot believe it. Where did the time go? Time just doesn't freeze when Michael's not here. I always wanted to see Michael live but now looking back on this, still painful to think about. Look how happy and ready he looked!!

[Hess]

So sad.

He looked so strong and confident at that pressconference. I was sooo exited.

Then I got tickets for the opening night and some other shows - I have never been so exited. Never have I've been looking forward to something with such anticipation. I was dancing in the sky.

Then came june 25th 2009......

A question - does anyone know how many people that were attending the pressconference?

A question - does anyone know how many people that were attending the pressconference?

I'd heard it was about 7,000, but I don't have a reference/ quote for that.

The pain in my heart has not decreased. If anything, it hurts more. Michael, dear, what happened?

[piperdarcy]

So sad to think we still had him with us three years ago. Three years ago--not so long, yet so long, long ago. A light went out that June.

[kissybissy]

Wow, It's been three years already. Time goes by so fast. Sadly he never performed the shows.

*big sigh*

[DI88]

very sad (

It's that day again. 3 years ago today, almost every fan was excited and happy to no extent - Michael announced his TII concerts. I remember that day exactly and I'm sure everyone can remember it too.

Unfortunately, we all know how that ended

God bless you, Michael!


And feel free to post more pictures, everyone...

Wow! I can't believe it's been 3 years already! I suddenly have this sick, empty feeling inside.

my heart is still broken

Me too, me too. <<<(I tried to find sad, huggy round, orange ppl..but could only find this)
