The Prediction must be a FICTION!
There's a Mayan prediction: 12.21.2012. Now, there's probably not a single person on Earth that doesn't know what those numbers mean. The End of the World. Assuming it's true, then that means the world only has 13 days to go before it, well, evaporates. Completely. The whole Noah's Ark thing happening all over again. At least, that's the movie, 2012, depicted how the world will end. Imagine.
The year 2012, one of the most memorable, defining moments of my life happened. I reached the goal beyond which classrooms don't exist anymore. Although, up to this point, I still feel weird not having to hang out with people my age - which I miss sorely - and not having to cram for exams with them and make them enjoyable, I think I'm at a point where I no longer question life as often as I used to before. I take what I'm given. I still worry - a lot! - but I take it anyway. From going to school every day, now, I go to someplace else, different, but similar in some ways. I remain a work-in-progress. There's a LOT to learn. Nothing new to that.
Here are things that aren't so new to me, though. My work removes me from where my family is. Everything seems so different from where I cam from, yet the same. The people, the situation, the dialect. I still haven't figured out what I really feel about being away. I can't be this dense, surely? I mean, shouldn't I know by now what I feel? Because whenever I have time to think about what just happened to my life, how it might have suddenly changed, I still have no idea. It must have happened so fast that I really didn't realize it was that fast until, honestly, five seconds ago.I believe that a person's mind is what creates a lot of things. Like someone has a problem because they think they have one. I don't do much of thinking these days and I'm not sure even if I did back then. I was a lazy, content, idle person. I watch, observe, but don't do much about it. And in some cases, I'm still that person but if you knew me before and you happen to meet me today, you'd be amazed. Because now, lazy and idle aren't in my normal settings anymore.

You know what they say about change. It's constant. But for me, this year, it's drastic. And I've never even had time to really, absolutely sink everything in.
Currently, I'm having the best time of my life watching the best TV show, ever! The Vampire Diaries seems to be having the same drastic changes in this early season where Elena isn't with Stefan anymore, Caroline on the receiving end of the Klaus's hummingbird story that made him "thought about being human" (I now declare myself TEAM KLAUS!), Bonnie having issues with her witchy powers, Klaus not his usual evil self, Jeremy becoming a vampire hunter whose sister is a vampire, the town's pastor responsible of mass murder. Woah! The best time of my life I was talking about? Oh yeah, I forgot to include in the Elena-isn't-with-Stefan-anymore part the Delena finally becoming a reality. At least for now. Or, in my eyes, that is. Sometimes, people tend to see what they only want to see. Anyway, I don't care what happens when all is said and done in the show when it comes to the two-brothers loving-the-same-woman triangle. For now, I'm in heavens about Delena. Sire bond, my foot.

Enter the Mayan prediction. Duh. Imagine. Okay, I'll allow myself a moment to imagine it, assuming it will happen. I mean the world is inevitably going to end but assuming it's happening on the 21st... No more TVD. I'm on the enjoying-everything road right now. I'm having the time of my life. I'm pretty much on my own, but I don't feel that way. I feel people around me. You know, people who have become so special to me I never feel alone. Doesn't that mean I'm perfectly comfortable where I am, what I have. No more of that, too.
No way.
What's gonna happen on the 21st, everyone is looking forward to. Obviously, nobody seems to believe it to be real. I see people everyday, in the streets, stores, offices, everywhere, I hear the same noise from the copra factory right below my room that's become so familiar to me it doesn't disturb my sleep anymore. People are getting on with their lives normally. The Christmas day happening way after whatever it is that supposed to happen 13 days from now, and everyone preparing for it, must only prove that there's nothing wrong with the world. I see the usual, normal things, in normal circumstances.
There's too many great things in 2012 that happened for me for the world to end in the same year. True or not, I can't help getting intrigued, wondering what if... just what if. I can't help wishing to be a vampire, too. A vampire like the OV (Klaus) who can't die. (Okay, I keep changing the real subject)
One other thing I believe in: God did promise he'd never give the world that great flood again. Maybe even, the end of the world isn't half as scary as people think it is. Maybe, we'll just vanish when it happens.
No way.

There are so many things I've yet to experience. Like fall in love, get married, have children. I still want to learn how to swim, to get a parachute and fly, to climb the Everest, to see Roger Federer play in flesh, watch an NBA game live, to see places, to make my parents stop working, my siblings to live a long, full lives... to understand why the sky is blue. The list goes on and on.
There's also still a lot of Vampire Diaries ahead, so it can't happen. Maybe, Bonnie will be able to harness enough powers to stop the inevitable. So help her, Professor Shane.
