And so on. Discuss? Part 1 (There are 5 parts) The Mayans never predicted the world will end. The Mayan calendar starts over again in 2012. It never ends. What a joke. Go down to the Ruins of Tulum and speak to a real Mayan and they will tell you the same thing. | ||

Kinda like this: [ x ] [ x ] [ x ] [ x ] [ x ] [ x ] [ x ] [ x ] Where each [ ] represents a box, and the x represents a numerical symbol. Due the nature of their numerical system, Mayans had to write quite a large number of boxes and symbols to represent a date. The limit of their counting system ends precisely December 21, 2012. This by no means indicates the end of the world. The Mayans would have simply added another box and kept counting. I do know this. I learned in Elementary school the Mayan numerical system (Mexican school) and read parts of the Popol Vuh and Chilam Balam (the famous and only surviving Mayan books). | ||

Not sure I'd rather my birthday be the end of the world, though. | ||

Right now most of the world is enjoying the highest standards of living they have ever seen (ok I lied, that was a few years ago, but we're still near the peak), are living longer than ever, and most of the violence in the news is actually the GOOD kind.. they're overthrowing evil dictators! | ||

All these nonsense... Sometimes I dream to time travel back to high school year, sometimes secondary school year. Undo my mistake, and lead better life? Sometimes I dream to be a different person, from another family.. Ah, I am not happy with my life due to some mistakes so bad. But I do not want to just dissapear. Dissappear.......... Now I wishing some miracle to happen, something PHYSIC to happen to my life. Hope December 21 2012 is not the end of the year but my new beginning kekeke. | ||

What if they chose not to invent these things because technology has only really hurt out planet? | ||
