Michael Jackson dead at 50

I woke up so late in the morning to finish my thesis proposal...and the first thing I usually do (aside from taking a pee) is to open my net ang log in to facebook.

Netscape is the browser that I'd use this morning and the Headline caught my attention. Michael Jackson just passed away on Thursday, June 25 at 2:26 pm in UCLA hospital due to cardiac arrest.

I'm one of the big fans of this sensational popstar, as I grew up in the 80s, when he was soooo BIG a star then. Madonna and Michael Jackson are among the icons I ican vividly remember shown on music videos in the 80s (back then, there was no MTV or Channel V...and these music videos were just fillers in the local TV channels).

Nostalgia. A twinge of sorrow.

Micheal Jackson was a legend. An icon.

Indeed, nothing is permanent in this world. Even fame, power, and in MJs case, skin color.

Michael Jackson, the King of Pop, will be remembered fondly by the 80s babies like me.

Freelance Web Writer Goes to Cambodia

The Angkor Wat is one of the world's famous landmarks, and this Freelance Web Writer has been dreaming about seeing this temple since she was 17 years old, upon seeing the lecture slides of her professor in the History of Architecture II.

Freelance Web Writer is doing her masters at day time, and works all night and dawn. The routine is already killing her and she decides to pack her bags and take a real break.

Songkran Holiday is Thailand's long New Year holiday and it was the perfect time to get away. The trip lasted for 3 days going there and back, and had to rush since there were no bus traveling from Siem Reap to Bangkok except on the 13th of April. Otherwise, I'd miss classes the week after Songkran.

The good thing about being a freelance ghost writer is being paid the amount you need or want, and being able to allot time for any activities you want to do at any given time. Indeed, freedom is what being a freelance web writer is all about...and that includes being free from financial worries and at the same time from having to stick to an 8-5 kind of job.

People say doing 2 things at a time will end up some people not being able to do anything.

I admit it's not a bed of roses for a freelance web writer being a student at the same time. And I used to be earning so much money when I used to be a freelance ghost writer full time. Priorities might change, but the good thing about online job is that it's always there and the demand stays unless internet technology revolves into a completely new state.

Freelance web writer really enjoyed her trip to Cambodia, and had a very good stay at Siem Reap. Freelance ghost writer blogs about her trip but seems unable to finish writing her tales due to her busy schedule.

Perhaps, I owe my blogs some quality time soon...but am pretty sure freelance web writer will have ample time when her exams are over.

As pictures say a thousand words, you can take a peek at my Siem Reap photo gallery to see some of the fantastic sights in Cambodia.
