THOUGHTS

During the first week in Hall 1, Bel and I were practically shivering (really... No exaggeration!) towards the end of the service. Really, I was shaking like a leaf.

Not that we both were not prepared for the air-conditioning. We were both wearing cardigan - just that it so happened to be not thick enough.

Which led me to ponder...



How nice would it be, if cardigans/sweaters/jackets etc has an INTERNAL THERMOSTAT. In this way, it can be responsive and react accordingly to the external environment. If the temperature drops below a certain degree, the garment would booster itself and "grow" thicker. Wonderful, isn't it? Saves the hassle and dilemma of having to decide between a thick sweater or a thin cardigan.

Which, also led me to ponder further....



How wonderful would it be if quilts/blankets are able to "crawl" back onto the bed and cover itself over a sleeping person each time it gets kicked out of bed.

Or, how nice would it be if the weighing scale has interfaces with the refrigerator/rice cooker/wallet/purse/atm card etc. If your weight hits a certain benchmark, the weighing scale would send a signal and LOCK UP the refrigerator/rice cooker/waller/purse/atm card. That way, you would not get to eat until you've slimmed down.

Or, how about a computer so smart that it can read your brain waves and type out what you're thinking or saying? Goodbye, keyboard.

Or, how about an internal feedback mechanism on adipose tissues. Once you're accumulated enough weight (read: fats), your body secrets some special enzymes to "liquefy" the excess lipids and you can perspire it all out cleanly.

Or, how about nails that fall out on its own once it grows pass the fingertips?

Or, how about shoelaces which are able to tie themselves?

Or, how about mobile phones which are able to harvest, convert, and store solar energy as potential energy, thus recharging the cell battery itself automatically?

Or, how about teeth that cleans and polishes itself?

Or, how about a bolster that can hug you back?

Or, how about bath towels that are able to wrap itself around your wet body without you lifting a single finger?



Ok. I think it's either I have a brilliantly wacky but creative brain, or a plain lazy one.
