A Life of Adventure

The poem Hips Don’t Lie represents for me some of the highest quality pop poetry:

Hips Don’t Lie

Ladies up in here tonight

No fighting, no fighting

We got the refugees up in here

No fighting, no fighting

Shakira, Shakira

I never really knew that she could dance like this

She makes a man want to speak Spanish

Como se llama, bonita, mi casa, su casa

Shakira, Shakira

Oh baby when you talk like that

You make a woman go mad

So be wise and keep on

Reading the signs of my body

And I’m on tonight

You know my hips don’t lie

And I’m starting to feel it’s right

All the attraction, the tension

Don’t you see baby, this is perfection

Hey Girl, I can see your body moving

And it’s driving me crazy

And I didn’t have the slightest idea

Until I saw you dancing

And when you walk up on the dance floor

Nobody cannot ignore the way you move

your body, girl

And everything so unexpected – the way

you right and left it

So you can keep on taking it

I never really knew that she could dance like this

She makes a man want to speak Spanish

Como se llama, bonita, mi casa, su casa

Shakira, Shakira

Oh baby when you talk like that

You make a woman go mad

So be wise and keep on

Reading the signs of my body

And I’m on tonight

You know my hips don’t lie

And I am starting to feel you boy

Come on let’s go, real slow

Don’t you see baby asi es perfecto

Oh I know I am on tonight my hips don’t lie

And I’m starting to feel it’s right

All the attraction, the tension

Don’t you see baby, this is perfection

Shakira, Shakira

Oh boy, I can see your body moving

Half animal, half man

I don’t, don’t really know what I’m doing

But you see to have a plan

My will and self restraint

Have come to fail now, fail now

See, I am doing what I can, but I can’t so

you know

That’s a bit too hard to explain

Baila en la calle de noche

Baila en la calle de dia

Baila en la calle de noche

Baila en la calle de dia

I never really knew that she could dance like this

She makes a man want to speak Spanish

Como se llama, bonita, mi casa, su casa

Shakira, Shakira

Oh baby when you talk like that

You know you got me hypnotized

So be wise and keep on

Reading the signs of my body

Seסorita, feel the conga, let me see you

move like you come from Colombia

Mira en Barranquilla se baila asi, say it!

Mira en Barranquilla se baila asi

Yeah

She’s so sexy every man’s fantasy

a refugee like me back with the Fugees

from a 3rd world country

I go back like when ‘pac carried crates for

Humpty Humpty

I need a whole club dizzy

Why the CIA wanna watch us?

Colombians and Haitians

I ain’t guilty, it’s a musical transaction

No more we do snatch ropes

Refugees run the seas ’cause we own our

own boats

I’m on tonight, my hips don’t lie

And I’m starting to feel you boy

Come on let’s go, real slow

Baby, like this is perfecto

Oh, you know I’m on tonight and my

hips don’t lie

And I’m starting to feel it’s right

The attraction, the tension

Baby, like this is perfection

No fighting

No fighting

It is poetry: Even when we hear the poem for the first time, the poetic nature of the title is very clear:

· Not fully understood

· Intriguing

· Unusual

· Metaphoric

· Sensual

· Popistic

The poem seems at a first glance to be a pop song, but actually it is poetry at its best, pop poetry. Shakira did not write a poem full of gaps that is hard to follow. Such a poem would not pass as a pop poem. Shakira’s technique was to plant a key verse that makes it clear that this is poetry, and not a pop song.

If there was only one such verse, it would not have been poetry. Many of the verses are symbolic, even though they seem light. In this essay I will disregard completely Third World elements, such as refugees. I will consider only the dance/show motive. I claim that all dance/show lines have erotic symbolic meaning.

For example the innocent-looking verse: “I’m on tonight”, seemingly meaning “I am performing tonight”, but it might be interpreted as: “I am hot tonight”, or something similar, of an erotic nature. The symbol is not completely clear, but interesting. Again poetry.

Sometimes the erotic nature of the verse is very explicit and clear: “And I’m starting to feel you boy”

The feeling of the poem: The poem constructs a correlative object, which is colorful, popistic, uplifting, stirring, and sensual. A complex feeling, such that exists only in true poetry, and of the utmost quality. Even if we read the poem, without music, it will have a strong impact on us. This special kind of feeling can exist only in pop poetry. Pop poetry can bring into poetry the exciting the rhythmic, the uplifting, and the stirring.

Psychological elements: Shakira is metonymically represented , through the physical: hips, dance, sensuality. Throughout the poem, Shakira does not think. At most: “You make a woman go mad”.

Philosophical elements: The poem praises the physical, the immediate, that is obtained through the senses, rather than through thought. This is exactly how the poem is transferred to the reader, and with it, the feeling.

The poem’s meaning: The poem is Shakira. Shakira singing from her hips. Shakira, physical, and unthinking. Shakira, of dance and sex (and also, Spanish, and Third World).

Jenna Sawin asked:

If you’re presently a member a web dating situate about Asian women or Chinese women then you’re probably there because you’re looking for a change from the category of special relationships that now appear to exist between Western Men and Western Women. You’re weary of women who grew up in the “ME” generation, forever looking firmly for “What’s in this relationship for me?” Nowadays, when you know a new Western Woman who you find attractive, before the conversation has even actually begun, she’s already drilling you about your occupation and your assets. How much money did you make and how much “material” do you have.

You’ve heard that Chinese Women are different from that, so you’re online to prove it out.

Well first, let’s be candid. A Chinese Woman would also want to know that you have the earnings and that you are financially fixed. Like women everywhere, she also requests an assured coming. The difference is, most Chinese Women come from a world where a habitual job is a great job, an unadorned home is a great home, and family is everything. Will there be food on the submit: good enough. Will we have a home that I can wipe and steam in and make comfortable for you: good enough. You’re a truck driver (mechanic, professor, chap nurse, etc): that’s fantastic. Just be reliable.

If you want an austere life where you do your job, which is the initial returns earner, and she does her job, which handle the home and family, then Chinese women make great life partners. That’s not to say that she won’t help you with commerce if that’s what you want, but you’ll be the boss. And it doesn’t mean she’s not organized to have a job too. She would workable prove to be a very hard worker. It does mean that running the home is her job as well. You will have a say in all the important decisions, but when it comes today-to-day operations sit back and let her take over, it’s what she does best.

Nevertheless here is the most important thing, a Chinese Woman marries for life. Once she commits, she will invest every scrap of her being into your prospect, your home, your family and your life together. If that is the kind of spouse you want, then you’re in the right place.

Her priorities in approximate order are companion and children, parents (hers and yours), home, face (what does the world think of your family), herself, her importance to you, her job, her links.

Chinese women want to fancy you and they want to be loved by you. Unlike Western Women, they will not be out instantly to change you the instant they have their grip on you. So long as you gather two requirements they will be cheerful. First, you must fondness them. Second, you must not be frivolous with money; that is you won’t finish your last dime on whiskey when the kids are hungry. Well frankly, if you are that frivolous with money then you actually basic a Chinese Woman more than she wishes you.

Chinese women like to expend as much time with you as possible. The more you can be together the happier they are. They’re happy to go out with you and play, splurge time at the movies, relax in a pub with your contacts, move on a beach, something so long as she is with you. Equally an allay night at home is ideal. To her, time with her companion is important. Nevertheless that doesn’t mean you have to be with her every minute, it just means that every second of your time you do give he will be appreciated.

Unlike Western Women, a Chinese Woman will not sit around with her buddies secretly badmouthing you. To her, if you look bad she looks bad, and she would squander face. So long as you are covering the bare basics, she will outwardly praise you to the roof, because, if her friends think you look good, then she gains face. And if she says you’re not a good wife, then implicitly she fault as a partner.

China’s reduced is rising swift, and these time most Chinese are proud of their place in the world and deem in their eminent. Just the same, the casual to live in the West, to get a passport from your country, to recover her economic standing corpse a promise motive for marrying a Western Man. Nevertheless if it is so, it is low on a long lean of motives. The number one motivator by far for a Chinese Woman to request to marry a Western Man is that chinese Men undervalued her. She wishes superstar who would appreciate her for the many equipment she does for him, who will luxury her with recognize, who will dearest her. She often cannot find that at home.

In addition, while many litter Chinese Women are looking for superstar who will handle them as a like, Chinese Women over the age of about 28 already launch to find few Chinese Men who are interested in them as life partners. While Western Men appreciate a partner who has life experience and is a truly female, Chinese Men want childish girls to charge that function, to the level that a Chinese Woman over 30 has become almost unmarketable as a companion.

Not to be repetitive, but Chinese women want you to fancy them and they want to feeling you, to look after your needs, to finish your needs. In their minds, one makes a good life and a good coming through a good and loving matrimony and a good home. To most Chinese women matrimony is the most important sole thing in life, because it is the crux summit of their existence from the moment they insert into matrimony awaiting the moment of their ruin. It is not to be full lightly.

Chinese women like to thrill their men, and to grasp acknowledgment that they have contented him. Every Chinese female loves it when her man gives her a little gift, because it means she has pleased him and he appreciates it.

None of this is to say that they never will be incensed, never will definite their concerns. And when the Chinese Woman reaches the boiling instant, sit back and dwell silent. Let her get it out, let her have her say, and acknowledge her righteousness, or survey out. And if you abuse her, physically or emotionally, then all we’ve said will go out the period. An abusive husband has no right to demand her matter and feeling. Nevertheless given accurate respect, she will yield it many time over. She will keep your love, your matrimony and your family, forever placing your needs and those of your children above her own.

Generally Chinese female was superb, inside and past. 1 in 10 Chinese Women are large. They are very female, sometimes simple in strength, small and delicate. They take great problem of their pure appearance. They almost forever look 10 days younger than they are. Very few smoke or beverage. They like to try new effects, explore, and they love to laugh and have fun.

To most Chinese Women age difference is not a major reason in choosing their life partner. They are often attracted to older men, and 10 to 20 being difference is not a big problem to most, but you need to respect if it is important to you. The Chinese Women with little life experience can be just as tiresome as a Western Woman to a Western Man who has reached an age of little patience.

Chinese women like sex, but with many (not each, but many) their wisdom is a little limited. While they perceive it as an act of sort, they have not usually been with a partner who treats it as more than a cursory event to persuade himself, with his partner’s needs of no importance. So you may find yourself needing to do some lessons and lessons, but her reaction will almost forever be one of delight and openness. With patience and guidance she will become a superb partner, because, again, you are her husband and she needs to like you.

If the Chinese Woman appeals to you you’re not isolated. And visibly web dating is a great way to find, touch and get to know Chinese women.

Iprwire Staff Writer asked:

Somehow, the way that Americans are taking holiday breaks is changing. Of course, some things are remaining the same, like the fact that most Americans drive to their destination instead of taking a train or other form of public transportation. But, when it comes to accommodations, some vital things are changing. First and foremost, the vacation home rental is becoming one of the most popular ways of housing a family or a group of friends who are on a getaway together.

The reasons for this are many, but perhaps the most fundamental reason is cost. Consider the cost of staying in a hotel room at hundreds of dollars per night. Even if you only have a family of four who are occupying two rooms, if they stay for seven nights, you can easily spend at least $1,000. Instead, it is quite easy to imagine finding a private house or cottage to rent for a week that would cost less than this, or at least give you more amenities for a similar price.

If you think just one step further to the way that families eat while they are on vacation, the family staying in the hotel will be eating in restaurants at least once or twice a day. They might be eating expensive snacks or fast food in between. Depending on how often and how fancy this dining out is, expenses can still quickly add up. The family who stays in a vacation home rental, on the other hand, can feed themselves for the regular price of groceries for their family.

As you can see, it can be much more economical to rent than staying in a hotel. In addition, staying in a house or cabin brings an entirely different feeling than staying in a hotel. While staying in a hotel might amuse the children for a day or two, the bottom line is that hotels can be quite boring. A house, on the other hand, has lots of room to play and, in most cases, a lot of opportunities for outdoor play as well.

It is very possible to find a vacation home rental that is located on a lake or at the beach. In this case, you are looking at hours of fun and play at no additional cost and no additional driving. This type of holiday setting is much more relaxing for the parents, who can sit back in lawn chairs and watch their kids running to and fro. Of course, joining in with the kids is also loads of fun, but relaxing is a good feature of an adult vacation.
