new idea

I was watching TV just now. Was scanning through the channels and accidentally stumbled upon this channel 8 news report. This guy had this idea of a new vehicle. It would be what I would call a train-cum-bus. It was basically something which could function as a bus and a train.

Having thought of some brilliant idea of "Transport in RI" last time during chinese lesson, as some of you may already know, I was thinking whether such an invention would aid transport in the future. To me, transport is a system (duh) which is divided into a few portions, the larger one and the smaller one. Firstly, there is the biggest one - spaceship. Travelling thru the universe. The next would be planes. Travelling around the globe. After which there would be trains, travelling from city to city. Then there are buses/cars/lorries etc. which travel within cities, sometimes across cities. I was thinking if we could combine all these into one vehicle, it would be great. If all cars could act as trains and travel on railroads, there will be no more need for highways, because railways will be sufficient. The only roads that will be needed will be those within a town. No more TPEs, just travel on the railroad, and when u get to the town u want to get to, change ur vehicle into a car and go to the place you want to go to on the road. It will really save space. Of course, more railways may have to be built, but I really think that this can be a great idea.

Well, enough of that. I'm really motivated to study chinese after this incident at the pick-and-choose stall near my house. It was totally embarrassing. The hawker was speaking in chinese, asking the person before me what food she wanted. She replied in English. And it continued. omg. cant she speak in chinese? It seemed very weird. Two people conversing in different languages yet understanding each other fully. sigh. nvm. I have a sudden interest in Chinese, and I definitely have to keep it burning. Don't forget that you are born in hong kong... Chinese is your main language!

k. nvm. I have been crapping. i really think im typing random stuff. Therefore, I shall stop here. Tomorrow seems like a boring day. k. nvm. Wish RIMB luck tomorrow. They will need it. But I firmly believe they can do it.

Jiayou RIMB!!! YOU CAN DO IT!
