My friend, Sisi is from Tonga, she said that Tonga is smaller than Bali. She used a comparative thing with traffic light. She said that in Tonga, there is no traffic light. Even if the government managed to put traffic lights in Tonga, people would ignore it as poles and drive pass the traffic light.
She told me that when she was walking with her husband while it was raining in Tonga, she saw a car passing them with no windscreen. That's mean the driver of the car soaked wet in the rain!
The other day, shen she was walking, she saw a car was going to passing her slowly. She saw the driver is a beautiful woman with complete make-up and beautiful dress. however when the car passed her, she recognised that the car didn't have a door next to the driver!
My friend, Sherly from China, always greets new housemate to welcome them. One day, there is a boy from China came and as usual, she comes out and talk to him. After introduced herself, she jokingly told the boy that she comes from a small town in China, it is so small that there is only one traffic light in her town. However, to her shock, the boy said that his town must be smaller than her because there is no traffic light in his town at all!
Moral of the stories:
1. Car tells an image of the driver
2. Never use a traffic light to describe how small is your town (for Sherly :D )
