Manos Al Aire (Translation)

Tú, que pierdes el control Hablando en alta voz Hieres mi corazón Yo, tratando de escuchar No me puedo explicar Qué extraña sensación.
You, the one who lose controlSpeaking loudlyYou hurt my heartMe, trying to listenI can't explain myselfWhat a strange feeling
Tú no me quieres entender Y me mandas a callar diciéndome No me debo sorprender Porque así es la realidad De nuestro amor
You don't want to understand me And you order me to shut up telling me I don't have to feel surprised Because this is the reality of our love
[CHORUS]
Y yo No tengo armas para enfrentarte Pongo mis manos, manos al aire Sólo me importa amarte En cuerpo y alma como era ayer
And IDon't have weapons to confront you I put my hands, in the air To love you, that's all that matters In body and soul like it was yesterday
Tú que perdiste el control Te dejaste llevar Por la inseguridad Yo que te he visto crecer Me puedo imaginar Que todo cambiará
You the one lost controlLet yourself goBy the insecurityMe that saw you growI can imagineThat all will change
Hoy aunque todo siga igual Y me mandes a callar diciéndome Que tienes que dominar O será el final Y yo no puedo así
Today even if all is the sameAnd you order me to shut up telling meThat you have to ruleOr it would be the endAnd I can't like this
[CHORUS]
Y yo No tengo armas para enfrentarte Pongo mis manos, manos al aire Sólo me importa amarte En cuerpo y alma como era ayer
And IDon't have weapons to confront you I put my hands, in the air To love you, that's all that matters In body and soul like it was yesterday

Issues with exchanges of Words???


Lately I've been listening to a few of my friends, co-workers, and family about their "relationship problems" and it seems to me that a lot of the problems in relationships string from an issue in communication. If your communication in your relationship is barely there or non-exsistant then of course it will cause a huge strain on you and your significant other, OR even if you are just testing the waters with someone special and your not quite in a relationship you still have to have great communication, this is where it is crucial! I just don't understand communication issues in relationships, i mean its not hard people. Let me give you a few helpful hints that i have learned over time........

1. When on the phone always talk don't leave any room for silence in your conversation. If the other person senses silence they will tend to say "let me call you back".....or "well i guess i'll talk to u later"....prompting them to do something else or call someone more interesting.

2. A really great way to avoid silence in a conversation or those "awkard so umm yea pauses" is to never answer a question with a one word answer. Always give at least one detail for example If someone ask:

"So what did u do today?"

Wrong Answer: "Nothin"

Better Answer:"Nothin really just watched a movie"

Fantastic Answer!!:"Nothin really just watched Twilight, I love that movie"

See the difference?? The Wrong Answer is too closed there is no room for more conversation. The Better Answer is good because there is room for conversation such as "Oh really? what movie?" or "what movies do u like". The Fantastic Answer is awesome because there is plenty of room for conversation and plenty of direction. Direction is important in conversation too because it leads the path of what you talk about next. For example with the Fantastic Answer the listener could follow with "Oh really Twilight? I've never seen it, whats it about?" or "Yea that movie is the ish, whats you favorite part?" See what im saying? By giving a detailed answer you continue with a great conversation. The other half of communication is LISTNING to each other. Dont be so keen on getting your points and views accross that you fail to listen to how the other person feels. This causes aurguments and really will get you no where fast. You will just end up seeing how loud each other can go screaming to get a point accross. I hate aurguing but when i do disagree with another person i really try hard to talk not yell so we both understand each other. I really hope these communication tips helped you all. If you still have questions feel free to ask, if not remember that a good 85% of a realationship is communication.

Will you EVER decide???


So one of my worst pet peeves is when a person friend, family, boyfriend, parent, sibling, fellow employee, complete stranger anybody cannot make up they damn mind. It is sooo frickin irritating. But the worst one is when a person is indecisive about being in a relationship with me. Like is it that hard just to wait until YOU ready. If you confused id rather you just wait and not say sh*t to me about being in a relationship. Keep your opinions to your damn self. And can i ask a question why would you get mad at a person for questioning being with you when all you do is be indecisive anyway. On one hand you would think id be happy but on the other hand im confused like hell! Jarvis asked me a few days ago to be with him and honestly before i got happy i questioned "Is he ready for this", "how are we gonna make it work", "is he serious", "will he cheat? he told me he would cause hes not ready to commit", "if this is what i want why do i have so many questions?" Finnally i just came out and talked to him because i was confusing myself. Me personally i am ready for a relationship, nothing for me to be indecisive on its what i want. But after the relationships ive been in I know what i want and i know what i don't want. I want a man not some lil boy, a man who wants to make me HAPPY not piss me off every gatdamn day with bullshit. I want someone who gives just as much as he gets and dont try to get over. One that my mom actually likes, one who wants to do sporatic things and dont wanna just stay in the damn house all damn day, one who watches movies with me, one who laughs and doesnt have a dry sense of humor, one who has a damn job and a cah (car), cuz i aint drivin that ass around everydamn where, you can come get me some damn time, and one who can actually can carry on a GOOD and interesting conversation, one who don't walk ahead of me they actually wait and walk with me not ahead like im they damn dog, and for God's sake a faithful one!!! Im not tryna have you date me and the rest of the damn county!! I mean these are not too much to ask, but i have a feelings because men are naturally stupid creatures i will be single for a while =(.
