blog 3: what if?....

I am sure that many, if not all of everyone has heard the claims that the world is going to end in 2012. well no matter how much evidence the people think they have and even though they think that since the Mayan calender is the world is going to end. well i just absolutely don't believe it. i don't understand the reasoning that a calender ending, the world is ending. why don't they just make a new calender? i don't think that any one can predict that for our future and even so i think that there is more evidence needed. i think that by now there would be more factual evidence and scientists would be able to tell by the activities of the earth.
Even though i don't believe this will actually happen, i cant help but wonder what if. like what if the world is going to end, it makes me rethink what i am doing with my life. should i be going to school, or am i paying out the ass for no reason. should i be focusing on a future i might not have, or should i be more concerned with what is happening as of right now? should i be living for the moment and not care or should i be cracking down to get a 4.0. i think that if the world was actually going to end they wouldn't still be encouraging people to do something with their lives. i think that since the movie "2012" came out it persuaded people that this is actually going to happen and that is how its going to be. well we have too much technology to not know that its actually going to happen and when and how and all that movie was, was a Hollywood stunt and a couple millions in special effects.
so what if the world is going to end? is it all just a big mishap for attention from the world or will it really happen. well i don't believe it will and wont until i see proof for myself.

  1. This is a pretty kick ass blog. I think that the whole world ending in 2012 is a crock of shit, personally. Here lately I have been living day by day and just focusing on what's important to me at this time. I think that you can balance college with everything else, and it's a good idea to do this. I totally agree with you that the world isn't going to end though. I mean....look how many times they said it was going to before. Look how bad they said Y2K was going to be. Not a damn thing happened hardly. It's all just a ploy to make money and exploit people as dumb asses. Very good blog.

  2. Kayli,
    Fascinating topic. I think the fact that it is part of your thought process makes it significant. Chad's comment about Y2K really made sense to me. To what extent are we motivated by fear?

  3. Good blog. I dont think that the world is going to end in 2012. But it will end sometime im not saying in 2012 but sometime. I mean there has been lots of natural disasters lately I'm not saying it is linked to anything but just think about it. What is next? There is some religious input to when the world is going to end but I'm not going to bring that up in this blog. This is def. something interesting to think about.
