Miss Leah's Corner: It's the End of the World as We Know it and I feel....

So the Earth is breaking up into little pieces slowly but surely as Earthquake after Earthquake strikes the globe we Earthlings call home.

California last night was struck with a 6.5 magnitude earthquake right off the coast. Dozens of aftershocks rocked the expensive little state with one of the strongest measuring in at a whopping 4.2 magnitude. I happen to be of the belief that California is going to one day break off from the Unites States entirely and just go floating off to chill with Hawaii...not a bad plan, as long as they don't take out any ships along the way across the Pacific.

In other places around the world, namely Samalia and Afghanistan, stronger earthquakes have recently devastated areas, killed many, and really messed up the look of the countries they occur in...it's as if the Earth has a really horrible case of dry skin and it just keeps cracking, no? Perhaps we should get it some lotion, perhaps a facial treatment?

I've also been noticing that since the start of the new year (2010 if you've been given amnesia) there has been a great increase in the amount of focus on the doomsday 2012 situation. It's really quite depressing to turn to the History Channel and see a show talking about how these ancient civilizations have predicted that the EXACT date of our demise will be December 21st, 2012. I really hope that they were all wrong and just simply out of their minds because I would really appreciate it if I could live a long life involving marriage, kids, grandkids, etc. If I die when I'm a mere 22 years old, I will never see my true potential!!

There are many theories. Some say global warming will cook us, some say that a gigantic meteor is going to cook us as well when it strikes the Earth. Still others say that some plague-type disease will vastly wipe out the human race. If this is the case, sign me up for the vaccine TODAY. There is scientific proof that a huge meteor roughly the size of Texas, I believe, that is going to be directly in the orbital path of our lovely Earth somewhere around...oh, DECEMBER 21ST, 2012 *dun dun dun* But I believe that we will either find another planet to live on, blast the thing to itty bitty pieces, or just hold our loved ones close and cry as we watch it approach. Then again, the calculations could be off and we could be looking at another Y2k epidemic. Perhaps the meteor will pass through our orbital path but not at a time where impact will occur.

Positive thinking, people!

It does you good to hope for the best and prepare for the worst.
For now, we still have 2 years, 11 months, and 11 days until we're all supposed to DIE. So, why not enjoy what supposed time we have left? Have some fun, don't worry about our doom until let's say November of 2012, sound good? Thought so. Now go enjoy life. You never know, you could go downtown tomorrow and be struck by a bus, kinda messy, but a heck of a way to die, if you ask me, way more fun than being cooked.
Maybe aliens will come and save us...that would be pretty awesome...unless they decided to cook us too...and then eat us...hmm.
