Boy oh boy you do not know how excited I was to hear word this weekend from a new friend Jim, that 2012 indeed is not predicted to be the end of the world. As some of you may have known I went through a brief phase where I legitimately thought it was going to be the end of the world. This period of time followed my one month stay in Hawaii where I studied humpback whales and their habitat. During my apocalyptic mode I spent time getting fit, took a fermentations class to learn a bit about how to can foods for preservation, etc. It was not an exciting place for me to be I admit. And while I tried not to let it get to me, it was hard for me to think about the fact that the day I graduate from my Master's could be the day the world ended. I know, a little dramatic, I admit.
So as you can imagine, I am so happy to know that Mayan people do not believe the world is going to end and it is a Western thought and myth. Phew! Here is the article to back what I am saying from Associated Press News. It was released on October 11, 2009. I have found various other articles released this month explaining these theories but oddly enough it is really difficult to get to the links...do I smell conspiracy? haha.
