How cool is this car!? The first time I heard of the Beetle, was when I saw it parked across the street from school. At that point, an 8 year old me says to mom:"What a weird looking car."
"Did you know that the engine is at back of the car? In the boot."
"No way!" I look back and see the student taking his school bag from the front of the car." I was shocked. My 8 year old brain could not comprehend this new idea of a car. How was it possible?
Well, it was possible. Different concepts of the same subjects drive creativity, innovation, improvement and new technologies.
It was things like this that taught me to look at things from different perspectives. Though not in the mind of an 8 year old but in the mind of an 18 year old.
It's interesting how things can go over our heads when we were younger and make a huge impact in our lives later one, for example, those hidden dirty jokes in my Disney films, sure did ruin my childhood, haha.
What technologies surprised you growing up? And which dirty joke from what film ruined your childhood?
