I've gotten a bit behind in my blog trolling, so I didn't notice this until today. Miss Nancy Cupcake called me out and it just be wrong of me not to oblige.

Also, as a note beforehand: she is currently in the process of organizing a bake sale in Prospect Heights Brooklyn. The proceeds will go towards Hurricane Katrina relief efforts. So if you like baked goods and helping people, and you are in the area or know people in the area, then buy a few cupcakes...or rice crispie treats or something.

That said, here we go:

Seven things I plan to do before I die:
1. Accomplish that free music everyday, all day goal.
2. Go to Trinidad during Carnival.
3. Aquire/build my own recording studio.
4. Do something completely spontaneous for the sole purpose of impressing Remington
5. Discover a hot new act
6. Learn how to drive stick shift
7. Find that special someone who is bad-ass enough to deal with the stress, drama and general insanity and confusion that is my personal life without cracking, but, at the same time, has the aptitude for that sensitive shit.

Seven things I can do:
1. Roll with the punches
2. Chill like a villian
3. Fit a marble in my nostril
4. Drink most, if not all, of your beer
5. Hold a grudge
6. A mean old-school Whitney Houston impression
7. Some freaky, unmentionable shiznit

Seven things I cannot do:
1. Reach high shelves without assistance
2. Roll a cigarette/joint/blunt
3. Debate
4. Braid hair
5. Imitate accents
6. Open up to most people
7. Math

Seven things that attract me to the opposite sex:
1. Nice, but not full-on manicured, hands
2. Confidence that doesn't cross over into douchebag territory
3. Yummy boy smell
4. Very good taste in music
5. Humor similar to mine
6. Imperfection
7. An interest in me and things important to me

Seven things I say most often:
1. "You gotta want it..." --> that's kind of a new one
2. "I hate you...no, I don't"
3. "thing" or "thingy"
4. "Goddammit!"
5. "Whatever, dude/bitch"
6. "I'm fixin to..."
7. "I'm so about to kick you in the nuts right now"

Seven celebrity crushes:
1. Frylock
2. Hottie Foreign Doctor
3. Dave Chappelle
4. Dude from the Transporter movies and Snatch and Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels
5. Taye Diggs, with his fine-ass self...mmmmmmm
6. Trey Parker
7. MacGyver

Seven people I'm tagging:
1. Remington (you can post in the comments if you want)
2. Aliya
3. Katie
4. Bu
5. Alex, if you're up to it
6. Toby

The Best Taco Bell in Germany

 Last weekend, I crossed off a major item on my bucket list. I went to Taco Bell in Germany. "But Raven, shouldn't you aspire to better, healthier things that have a measurable positive impact on society?" I know that's what you're thinking, but I don't really give a crap... because you are not the boss of me.  I wanted Taco Bell, because it's probably the one thing from back at home that I crave the most. Say what you want about it (again, I don't give a crap), but get at me when you've spent years away from your homeland and are unable to acquire whatever nasty-ass comfort food is available wherever you're from. For me, my nasty-ass comfort food of choice is Taco Bell...with Sonic a close second. However, you can't even find Sonic all over the U.S. and I don't find myself craving burgers and hot dogs all the time (plus, those urges are a lot easier to satisfy than a craving for Mexican or Tex-mex).

The One Who Got Away (Part 6): PLOT TWIST

Quick Translation: This confirms that German citizenship will not be opposed, if within two years it can be verified that the aforementioned person no longer possesses citizenship for Trinidad and Tobago e   and/or has fulfilled the requirements for the loss of this citizenship and that nothing has happened in the meantime, which would forbid naturalization.  I almost forgot what it felt like to receive a industrial size dose of 100% homegrown German bureaucratic pedantry. Luckily, the German authorities will never leave you too long without a fix. You can count on that. As you can see from the picture above (and from my previous posts), Trinidad and Tobago e  had only been mentioned once in passing up until now, when I finalized my application and paid the fee. Mr. S: Your mother was naturalized in the U.S. after you were born? Me: Yes, but she never applied for Trinidadian citizenship for me, which would have had to have been done by my 18th birthday.  Mr. S: Ok. (Ac

The One Who Got Away (Part 5)

Pro tip: Don't estimate the amount of time it will take to review your citizenship application based on the amount of time it took to get the results of your citizenship test. So far, this has been the area of the German-side of the process that ran a little closer to my bureaucratic expectations, namely, if an official expresses a length of time -- e.g. 3-6 months -- things will start moving closer to the six month mark than the three month mark. Getting down to the wire, I was (and still am) slightly concerned that this would drag on and I would have to renew my U.S. passport first, since it's getting kinda close to the point where it's only valid for six months. This would have cost me 1.) more money 2.) plus a trip to a consulate that actually does shit for U.S. citizens 3.) money and time off work for a trip to Bremen, Berlin, or Frankfurt. As luck would have it, I finally received notification that the Germans are letting me in! The full term is that they are
