"La totura" by Shakira featuring alejandra sanz is simply infectious. I cant help but think how wonderful it wld be if we cld jus backpack across Cuba, Spain and Italy. But of course, as u nitpick at the idea, loads of probs arise. Like rats, roaches , common toilets and a piece of the celing fallin down on ya when ure fast asleep at budget motels or doing anything else that might involve activity on the bed ( think : just married with ashton kutcher and brittany murphy). Anyway, i read this aPPALLING article a coupla days ago in Strait TImes that linked economical growth with the performance of a manicurist of that country in qn. i'm like "WHA?????" For example, it said that the manicurists in Filipino hotels are extremely conscientious and immaculative and it can be reflected in their country's booming economy due to remittance by 8million filipinos who work abroad. The worse "case-study" was Cuba. The reporter went on to compare their popular cheap red varnish to the prostitution industry(cld i call that???) to American tourists and how it wld jus worsen if Castro dies. it was in ST???!!! The quality of that article really caught me by surprise.Ok. This is something which i adapted frm ma Soci readings."antropologists use the idea of race, in the sense of sub-species, to distinguish for example "Mongoloids" ( comprising for ie. Chinese and Malays), " Caucasoids" ( comprising Indians and Europeans) and "Negroids" - Donn BayardI can imagine some sorry ass of an officer laughing his life off if i fill that i'm a caucasoid in some offical form.
