This is NOT Your Ordinary Conspiracy: Chris McCandless is back alive
Hi bloggers! Here I'm to release a breaking news: the once-dead Chris McCandless is still alive.
This may sound like any other ordinary conspiracies, but it's not. Why? Because Chris McCandless is now, sitting in front of a computer in the West Hartford Public Library, and writing this blog to you all. You may be wondering: What is happening here? Well, it's a long story.
Long story short: I woke up this morning on a bench, mostly because I was too hot wearing this winter coat for Alaskan weather in this moist weather. Sunlight casted on my eyes and they were so bright that it took me a while to get adapted to it. Sun, warmth, life. I was so confused. If there's a Guinness record for a person with the most questions at the same time, that was me this morning. But the most important question: Why am I still alive? I thought I was dying. Starved, froze, hopeless, on a bus in the cold, snowy, middle-of-nowhere, Alaska. Then I started to recall about those fairy tales where someone was dying and then woke up in a warm house realizing a farmer saved his life. Struggling to push my stiff feet down to the grounds from the cold bench, I started to clear my head with recovering consciousness. Apparently, I'm not in anyone's house. The sign on the wall clearly says 'Blueback Square'. I searched for this name in my still-blurry memory yet found nothing. In confusions and shock, I took off my winter coat and hid it behind the bushes, then I started to walk around this place. I felt some strength coming back to me, even though I was starving, but I do feel energy in me, weirdly.
I was wandering around until I saw the West Hartford Public Library. I immediately (the nature definitely make me think clearly) realized that if there's a place that I can find out more about my situation, that will be the library. I went into the library and found a computer. It took me a while to figure out how to use those computers. I never like computers, people trying to be smart and stuff. But I didn't have a lot of options. Then I checked the time. I was prepared.
Chills ran down my spine. Sweat assembled in my palms.
The time was 15 years later. It's 2018 now.
I couldn't believe this was happening to me. I used to think that all these time traveling things are just fantasies for those naive kids and conspirators. But it was actually happening to me. I wanted to ask someone again, but it was weird to go up to someone: What year is it now? So I decided not to. Then I did the thing what everybody else does: I googled Chris McCandless. And it shocked me.
I'm on Wikipedia.
I read through everything on Google and started to realize I'm supposedly dead. And I have a book and a movie talking about me. This continued until two kids on the other table were staring at me, talking to each other. When I saw them, they immediately lowered their heads and pretended that nothing had happened. This happened multiple times and I got annoyed. They are laughing at me, they must be, because of my dirty clothes and messy hair, I thought. So I stood up from the computer and walked up to the table. The two kids pretended not to see me. I asked: why were you guys staring at me? They looked up at me, then turned and looked at each other, as if they were agreeing on what to say. The first kid opened his mouth with hesitation: "We...we were looking at a book and...and you look really like someone in it." Anyway, I talked about the whole thing to them and they were very skeptical, shocked but eventually believed me because, well, I look like Chris McCandless. They bought me some food and they were really kind, like any other people that I met on the trip. (PS: If people that helped me before saw this, please somehow connect to me or leave a comment!) They then said they were reading this book called Into the Wild that talked about me. I don't really like it, honestly, the way they described it. They said people in their class were talking about my "stupid decisions and reckless behaviors, plus my extreme stubbornness". No, none of that were true. I made responsible decisions as an educated person, and that was the way I pursued what I wanted. The consequences were bad, I would admit, and I would have taken more precautions, but I would have gone on the same trip if I start over. Anyway, we talked about all these with these two wonderful kids and they said I should write a blog to find my family and friends, so that's what I'm doing. They also say that there's a lot of places, mountains and parks, around this town are like "the wild" and I'm excited to explore it in the later days.
I've got to go now, but I'll update this later. Leave a comment if you know me in person. Thanks!
