If I Were To Time Travel...

Do you ever wonder - “What if I could turn back time?” or “What if I could go back to the past?” What would you do? Where shall you go or on what particular time/event of the past? Would you want to change something? Are you even interested in witnessing the events of the past? Me? Of course! As long as I “can’t” distort history, I’d really want to witness many historical incidents. I will no longer wish to go back in time so I can undo this or that. I know it’s just not fair or something – what’s there to learn if people don’t make mistakes?

All I want to do, if I were given the chance to time travel, is to observe firsthand the occurrences of the past which I’ve never been a part of…

This post is actually a continuation of (or in connection to) my previous post – Into the Time Stream.

So where do I want to go if blasted to the past?

As much as possible, I’d really want to go back to the time when…

·         The World is about to be Created
·         Moses Divided The Red Sea
·         The Ten Commandments Were Made and Presented
·         The Birth/Death of Christ
·         Dinosaurs, and Dragons are still around
·         Nature is at its best
·         Great Pyramids and the Great Wall of China are being Built
·         Troy Fell
·         Greek Mythology is quite… real
·         Cleopatra is still alive... and pretty? Hmmm
·         There’s a big fight/duel in the The Colosseum or Roman Coliseum
·         Construction of Stonehenge in Britain begins
·         The Greeks and Persians are at War
·         Japan/America Colonized Philippines

And so many more... Yep, some events may seem a tragedy or traumatic enough for those who have witnessed it... But because I wasn’t able to experience it myself, I want to find out what it feels like… I am prepared... as long as I’m an invisible spectator... ahahaha :D

Into The Time Stream…

These days, I have found myself getting inclined into reading… again. It’s been a year or so since the last time I read a good thick book, and I miss the feeling. I now get paranoid whenever I’m trying or planning to borrow a book from a friend because of “that” incident; so I’m trying to refrain myself from doing so. Haha. Well, it wasn’t actually my fault why the books I lent got “messed up.” It was the typhoon’s wrath.  

 I first decided to finish reading Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows; but I ended up going for the Artemis Fowl: The Time Paradox. I have always been fascinated with the Artemis Fowl series. The Time Paradox is the 6th instalment already and so I’m very much excited for the last (two) books. Too bad my friend still doesn’t have it. 

About Artemis Fowl: Time Paradox

What sets this series apart is its ability to rise above predictability. The characters in the Artemis series change and grow more complex with each book... This combination of ingenious plot and authentic characters who evolve over time is a pleasure to read and leaves readers begging for more.

Let me use short words to briefly describe what Time Paradox is about… something like these:

Parent. Child. Family. Self. Sacrifice. Deception. Loyalty. Time travel. Friends. Trust. Cunning plots. Comrades. Greed. Kraken. Old Foes. Future. Sarcastic Dwarf. Techie centaur. Brave Elf. Change. Chances. Inner Desires. Time. Fate.
