All my life,I have been searching for a life beyond the ordinary. What if there
really was a magical hogwarts, a beautiful Narnia, or a vampiric
forks for any such mystical wonderland would be a great relief from my blissfully
ignorant reality.The mythological monsters,witches, wizards,winged horses cum
lion cum eagles,extra-terrestrial intelligent aliens,in short the world of fantasy
has an addictive lure to it that sucks in all in its path like a gigantosauric
vaccum cleaner...
When
i first read Harry Potter & the Philosopher's stone,I was so taken by it
that my ordinary mundane existence seemed so boring.I got so lost in the world
of Hogwarts that for a brief moment of wishfulness,I wanted to be Harry
Potter.Infact Ron,Hermione,Neville, for that matter even Lord Voldemort,a.k.a
You.Know.Who would have made a good choice of life for me.I kept hoping against
hope for a Hogwarts where witches and wizards are tutored to perfect their
witchcraft and that one fine day, the white bearded,"mental" Professor
Albus Dumbledore would knock at my door to take me to the land of Slytherin Serpents,Gryffindor
Lions,Hufflepuff badgers & Ravenclaw Eagles.iF Only..
if only there was a
vampiric forks where an almost perfect and gorgeous,tofu(innocent
animal)-tarian Cullen family lived and thrived.Where a savoury plain girl,
Isabella Swan was not only the object of love and blood lust of
greek God ,Edward Cullen but also a magnet for the other monster,Mr.8 pack
abs,Jacob werewolf thus completing a love triangle.If Only I belonged to this world,I would turn
into a howling mad she werewolf and tear away all life-vampire or human,in my
vicinity...
When I first saw
Contact,the movie,Oh! my dear God.I wished ,with all my female albeit feeble
powers of persuasion,to God to let there be a wormhole that opened up just for
me,its sole passenger,and zoomed me away across millions and millions of light
years of time to meet my very own personalized aliens.iF Only...
But I guess
life is not so purely magical. God wanted to make it as simple as possible for
us naive homosapiens.but we are a bunch of ironical fools who just love to mix
it up.After all where is the fun in good ol' simplicity...
If only there were
talking Rat knights or friendly Minotaurs,or Unicorns.even the hissing,spitting
and communicating with the world's meanest Wizard,The ghastly Nagini would make
a great companion in my journey to the kingdoms of Air,Water,Fire,Earth and of
course Dragon infested Spirit.
Honestly I
would'nt even mind being
a Pirate Of the
Carribean.I mean ,yes, I would
be sought after
by the entire
English army and would
probably be hanged
to death if I were
caught, or I could die slaying
the ferocious and slimy cracken
or fight for my
life by
piercing a lovelorn Davy Jones's
heart in a rotten chest.Yet I would gladly
embrace death as Captain
Nova Sparrow..
Even a world with
stuck-up asses posing as angels would be so much more digestible than it normally
is.Who would'nt like knowing that there is a book of maps defining our future
in the form of lines and intersections with crazy,over the top,hat bearing
adjustment bureau trying to put our equally maniacal lives back on track..
Hell I would
even take on mummies if only I got the exclusive opportunity to.Sure,I would be
up against beetle vomiting,eternal lover, Imhotep or the sexy stud,The Scorpion
King or the Psychotic and narcissistic Chinese Emperor who could turn into a
three headed dragon or a gorilla type of beast.But I,the not So simple
Human(actually warrior anciente with a click on spear as my master weapon and a
daredevil family (to make matters worse)would slay them all with a swish of my
sword and the force of my punch,not forgetting my non existent knowledge of the
Egyptian language,which would undoubtedly raise more of the creepy not so
peaceful malignant walking dead.
Sometimes I get the feeling that this world
around me is just not real.And very soon my faithful band of supporters with
their pill-popping ways will arise from the world of computers to save me from
the matrix.And then I,Nova,the chosen one will free my fellow countrymen of
Zion from the clutches of The monster machines and the trillionplicating Mr.Smith....
If Only my life was a
fantasy,for then I would be its larger than life mythical Time traveller
forever flitting between zones of sheer Magic...
