Actually you cant get to the speed of light. Either you pop into existence already moving at that speed or you are doomed to move at a velocity lower then light.
Little bit more.
The closer you get to the speed of light (c) the more energy is required to further accelerate you. This becomes more severe the closer you are up to the point where you need infinite amount of energy to finally get to c.
While accelerating your time will start to pass more slowely. If you could hit c, no time will pass anymore and everything becomes instant, in a sense.
