I'm so behind.

Just got back from the Philippines. ANYWAYS:
I think the most important event that occured during the month of June was [not to copy everyone else] the death of Michael Jackson. Honestly, he was one of the greatest influences on music on a global scale. Michael Jackson died of cardiac arrest after overdosing with, what I've heard, one thousand stress relief pills. Michael Jackson admitted these pills himself, however. Even when I was in the Philippines, many people were aware of this death. All the stores were playing Michael Jackson over the intercom, music stores were selling his albums, and people everywhere were singing Michael Jackson songs on karaoke. I think this is the most important event because Michael Jackson ushered in a new era of music. And now, people are thinking of Chris Brown as this generation's Michael Jackson due to his style of dancing while singing. But I'm sure everyone agrees that Michael Jackson could never be replaced.
