Whenever bubbles fly out from your bottle of cleanser, you could help but think that childhood has returned and you would reach your finger up, aim at it and poke it into millions of pieces. Then, when the excitement ends, you just realised that childhood was gone, like the bubbles.
What had happened in the past decade, there isn't any formal record. This leaves your decendants a real headache if they do a research on what you did or who you are, 500 years ago. Nah, you would say, who will ever do a research on me and what for? As I went back in time 5 centuries ago to talk to you.
Yes. I reassured this insecured young man or soon to be a rich and powerful merchant. The only thing is : he isn't buying it He was just an immigrant and living in an impoverish condition. How could all those happen? I told him it's all up to him. He stared at me with his signature long blank stare as seen in photos 5 centuries later.
We walked along the port, overseeing hundreds or even thousands of sampans and ships from all over the world. I have a feeling that if I am assigned to do a research on some history topics, definitely I'm gonna nail it and maybe one day gain a Pulitzer Award? Nobel Prize? that's up to another time traveler to tell me. Marveled by the amazing scenery, I took a photo of the port somewhere in the 16th century with my 21st century devices, namely mobile phone. Everyone's gonna be amazed by the photo that I took.
He was looking at it and reached over to get a closer one. Amazed by it, he started fiddling around with it. Then he started questioning me about how did I come here, who I am and why did i come here. I just told him this: I will get your answers one-fine-day and don't give me the stare again.

Back in present time.
I just came across some bits and pieces notes written by him. And incidently, mysteriously I found out that he put up a notice in 1588, the time that he got rich, to search for some strange looking young girl that carries a mobile phone(nobody knows what is that! 500 years ago.) and apparently, very urgent as stated there (pls come forward to see him right away.)
I am like 'wow, amazing' or rather ' wow, fantastic baby'.
