You would travel forever instantaneously to your perception...unless your ship hits some medium and slows down, you basically will percieve travelling for an eternity to infinity instantly.
But this is academic as it would take all the energy and matter in the Universe to even approach the speed of light. It's impossible to accelerate any mass to the speeed of light.

but that doesn't make sense, in fact a website that i found indicates otherwise. The example use was that of a baseball in a plane, if you throw it up, it moves relative to you and doesn't slam into the back of the plane.
using that logic, my cells would continue to degenerate relative to my environment.
Why would my perception be instantaneous? wouldn't it still take 20 years for ship to travel at light speed? why wouldn't I notice that?
