As much as I want to curl up into a ball and sleep for 18 hours a day, I must not. As much as I want to eat junk food and watch tv and cry, I can't!!! I must not let seemingly impossible situations dictate my happiness or my life plan. I hate to speak so vaguely, but I fear for legal reasons that I must. I am TRULY sick and tired of putting my life on hold for people and things that are consumed in other battles and agendas. Ooooohhhh I wanna say soooooo many curse words right now but I know my mom will be very upset if I do... Lol...I have held off on film and television opportunities and am planning on postponing other aspects of my life??!?!???? Uh-uh. I think not. I cannot give people who are not living my life the power to govern it. I am exasperated and sooooooo saddened by the non-progress I have been experiencing. I wish I could speak more candidly, but I would hate to mess up any future relationships or opportunities. I have been hopeful and optimistic for so long, but my flame of hope is definetly extinguishing. Sometimes I just like to vent on my blog. It really helps to hear your positive feedback!Thankfully I'm headed to the west coast on wednesday to get my grind-cap on and work extra hard to metaphorically punch people in the nose!! Lol... Not quite sure what that means yet. But what I do know is that while music seems to be temporarily on hold, best believe I will not be twiddling my thumbs :) gahhhhhhh it gets super frustrating sometimes especially when I see others excelling and getting to do what I also love. But then I remind myself that I'm only 18 and that I'm lucky to be so young! I still have my life ahead of me.
Thanks for listening,
JoJo

Michael Jackson was the greatest entertainer of our time and impacted millions and millions of people around the world. Artists can only imagine having a sliver of the success or the meaning that Mr. Jackson had. I just want to offer my sincerest condolences to the Jackson family. I can't believe that he is gone. It definitly hasn't sunk in yet. One thing is for certain though- Michael Jackson will NEVER be forgotten. Irreplaceable, innovative, genius, captivating. Even posthumously, Mr. Jackson will continue to inspire people everywhere. Lets all remember this incredible man not for the scandals that may have surrounded him, but for the remarkable contributions he made to music and pop-culture as we know it. He will be GREATLY missed.
