Heal the World, Make it a Better Place

Letter from the Editor

 

Greetings Teen Chic Mag Readers! We have been an official magazine for 8 months now…Yay!!! Our numbers are constantly growing and growing and growing…and we love all of the support that we are getting. THANK YOU SO-OOOO MUCH!!!

This has been a somber couple of weeks with the passing of Farrah Fawcett and Michael Jackson on the same day, Billy Mays and just recently Steve McNair. Death has a weird way of making a person really appreciate their family, friends and the little things in life. My little sister and I decided to catch up on some quality time by going to the movies to see “My Sister’s Keeper” which is an excellent movie that did not leave a dry eye in the theatre.

I know that you’re probably wondering, “Why do I want to see this?” One because it is good and two because it will really make you appreciate your loved one while they are here on earth. You should strive to live you life to the fullest each and every day because every day you spend alive is precious.

I am a huge Michael Jackson fan and the hearing of him passing seemed a little unreal to me even though I know that in order to live one must also die. In middle school I was on the Drill Team and for Homecoming we did a “Thriller” performance for halftime my eighth grade year and it was a total HIT! So I felt that it was totally appropriate to add the “Thriller” video to my post.

Rest In Peace - Michael Joseph Jackson
