THE END OF THE WORLD!!!

So as we all know, today (December 21,2012) is the day the world is supposed to end. I never believed it. And as I write this at, lets see, 9:47 PM, I am still here. Also, yesterday, if the world ended today, Australia would've been gone, and its not either. So, anyway, what I want to talk about today is why the Mayan calendar really ended. I'll share my personal theory with you. The Mayans made these calendars a really long time ago (sorry, I'm terrible at timelines and such), and they made them up until today. Thats a lot of work, right? So anyway, I think that the people making the calendars probably got bored and left, thinking that they could make some more calendars closer to the date when they ran out. But then they died. Do any of you have theories about the end of the world? If you do, I'd love to read/hear them. Post a comment or send me an email at morganwaas@yahoo.com if you have a theory. Fun Fact: Last night, I watched 2012 with my family. And while it wasnt a terrible movie in general, it was fantastically mockable, especially for my dad, the chemistry teacher. So that was fun.
Another Fun Fact: I am a HUGE Doctor Who fan, and in one episode, the Doctor goes to the end of the world. In this episode, appropriately titled The End of the World, the Doctor says something I liked a lot. He said, "You lot. You spend all your time thinking about dying. Like you're going to get killed by eggs or beef or global warming or asteroids. But you never take the time to imagine the impossible. That maybe you survive. This is the year 5.5/Apple/26. Five billion years in your future. And this is the day-hold on. This is the day the sun expands. Welcome to the end of the world."I'll post a link to a clip if anybody's interested. So everyone, let me leave you with this thought. Teenagers: stop trying to grow up so fast and live a little. Adults: Spend time with the ones you love, and older people: enjoy the fabulous life you had on this wonderful planet. Everyone: stop thinking about dying, and start focusing on living. Sorry to be so serious, but its a serious topic. Also, from now on, I'm going to finish each post on this blog with a quote. So here's this one: "Remember not only to say the right thing at the right place, but far more difficult still, to leave unsaid the wrong thing at the tempting moment." -Benjamin Franklin. Thanks everyone, I'll talk to you all later. Remember: Send emails to morganwaas@yahoo.com or post a comment with ideas. Thanks!
