25 ting-tings about Jai.

*You have to read this or else you pinky toe will fall off (and we don't want that, now do we?

1) I love my family so, so, so (one more: so) much and I am very blessed! 

2) I am a Leo and I think we are the best! (one word: Obama) And Cancers are at a close second :)

3) I sometimes wish I was born in the 1960s because of the revolution and the music. I would be a hybrid of a hippie and a Black Panther.

4) I know HELLA random facts. People always ask me "How do you know that?!"

5) I still have a hard time answering the, “Are you mixed?" question and I always have. I’m not bi-racial but my dad is and my mom is technically "mixed". I didn’t know what mixed was as a kid and it confused me horribly.

6) I am in the upper echelon of Drake fans and have been since 2004. Leslie and I have even formed a new breed of Drake fan called "Drizlets". lol 

7) I used to think that the government would tap into my phone on numerous occasions when I had "controversial" political discussions. Therefore, when I thought I was being taped, I would just talk shit about the government, the bogus war, and ex-Pres. Bush (and then laugh at "whomever" was listening) 

8) I have had this theory that Obama is the anti-Christ yet I still voted for him (therefore I have no doubt he will get us out of this economic catastrophe.) 

9) I also am very interested in the 2012 end of the world theory and I need to get a move on my life goals if it’s true. lol

10) I am in love with the idea of being in love but I have never had a "real" boyfriend.

11) I hate how the media focuses on a handful of cute, missing white kids/women each year and then ignores the thousands of other missing people.

12) I am serving in the Peace Corps after grad-school and I can’t wait to start my phase of service this year.

13) I have excellent pronunciation in Spanish but I’m not close to be fluent even though I will be in a few years. 

14) I think Nickelodeon should dedicate an entire channel to the infamous era of 90’s Nickelodeon nostalgia. 

15) I love to travel! I have a list of all the countries I’m going to and I can’t wait until Brasil 2011-2012.

16) I have seen "City of God" and "City of Men" so many times I should fluently speak Portuguese by now. But I only know a few words including "fuck you".

17) I have always had extremely neat handwriting. My professor once showed the entire class, I felt like I was in 4th grade again.

18) I hate when people say "Fiddy Cent" instead of "Fifty Cent" and when people unnecessarily add an "r" onto the end of words ex: idea vs. idear

19) I need a tape recorder and I sing a lot. I just randomly create songs with dope lyrics/melodies but I can never remember or write them down. Oh and I get mad at myself when people ask me to sing for them. I get so nervous that my voice messes up and I know I’m much better than that.

20) I think I could be a really good dancer if I would have stayed in dance classes as a child, actually I know.

21) I don’t understand the big deal with Blackberries and Twitter.

22) I’ve never been worried about having lots of friends; it's quality over quantity.

23) I hate when people kiss other people's asses (esp. if it’s just b/c they are attractive and/ or dress cute).

24) I love interracial love! I am not attracted to one race over the next whatsoever.

25) I am graduating a year late thanks to switching from pre-law to advertising. I still don’t know exactly what I want to do but I most likely will find out this summer most likely during my internship :)

26) I love being black but I also love Latinos and their culture! But I wish some would understand the difference between race and ethnicity/nationality and stop denying their African roots (cough: Dominicans)

27) I have been a DeGrassi head since I was 13 yrs. old and I have seen every episode at least 4 times.

28) I used to be obsessed with Mary-Kate and Ashley! Every Tuesday when a new movie was released, my granny would buy it in the morning and put it in my mail-box so I could watch it after school. ha

29) I am a big supporter of gay rights.

30) I admire those who are different, don't give a flip, and speak their mind.

31) I can spot a trend YEARS in advance.

32) I NEED A JOB! fuck you, pay me (please?) lol

33) I would like to get a tattoo of the African continent and “It’s not how far you fall, it's the way you land.” in black ink and “La vita è bella”(“life is beautiful” in Italian) possibly in white ink but I don’t know where.

34) My favorite cartoons: Doug, Recess, Pepperann, Hey Arnold, Wondershowzin, and Rugrats.

35) I wish Bob Marley were still alive.

*I like inspirational quotes therefore I will leave you with this:
“Let the world change you and you can change the world.”
&
“Holy bologna stuffed in rigatoni” lol

Peace.
