The Object Of My Technolust
There’s always that one technological object a person feels that they must have. Some want something very small and simple, while others have something extraordinary in mind, something more imaginary. As for me, if I had a choice to pick anything in the world, I would choose a time machine and many reasons come forth to why I would choose this object as my “technolust”. The idea of time has always fascinated me. I love to dream about going into the past to change a traumatic event that still bothers me, or glimpse at the future to see how my life will unfold; will I find success and happiness; what wild technologies can I expect.
In regards to going back in time and changing all the mistakes I have done in my life, it would help me in making the right decisions about the future by having the ability to correct these errors. This is something that isn’t only beneficial to me, but to all. For example, a couple years ago when I was 16 years old, I used to always help my uncle out in his convenient store. So one day, specifically on the night of Halloween at approximately 8:45pm, him and I were debating on whose turn it was to go out and pick up our food. I have noticed how tired and exhausted he was, so I decided that maybe it would be better if I were to go out and leave him in the store for the night. Come to think of it, that was the worst decision I have ever made in my entire life. As I was approaching the store, I noticed an ambulance truck in the distance, while my uncle was on the street in front of them. Speeding up-close is when I noticed that my uncle was severely injured. As I broke down in tears, asking the police officers what had happened, they had told me that minutes after I have left the store, a guy came in wearing a devil’s mask robbed the store and shot my uncle twice in his neck, once on his chest, and ran out. My uncle had then dialed 911 and started limping outside the store while trying to stop the blood flow...
