Well during my random quest in searching for books in Kinokuniya. I came across a book called 2012 something something something. so yada yada, wondering what nonsensical book it is, I pick it up, flip it to the middle page and just skim through...

OOhh i said. the world ends at 2012?
At what prove there is? interesting subject found! kept that info in mind and when i got home I did some research online. hehehe PBL.. lol -.-"

This is what i've found out.
Thank the ancient mayans that now most archaeologist/astronomist/scientist etc believed that the world or earth as we know it will encounter an extreme change (for the better or worse that is).

This all is a result from the Long count calender which the mayans created. The mayans love numbers, they are obsessed with it and perfection is in their blood. Their calender even years still remain deadly accurate to the modern calender (gregorian calender).


But what has this got to do with the end of the world? The Mayan Prophecy is wholly based on the assumption that something bad is going to happen when the Mayan Long Count calendar runs out. Well to make things short the mayan calender ends in 3 years time.
Thats right.
on the 21st december 2012. So whats gonna happen? Many speculate that the poles of the earth will shift too fast that, natural disasters will pop out from all over the world. Lands will sink. and sunken lands will rise. Chaos everywhere. basicly the world will undergo some kind of 'restart switch' in which everything is reduced to prehistoric? hmm

And scientific proof?
Well there isn't any of course. But the closest most proof is maybe that coincidentally, in 21/12/2012. The sun will align itself in the centre of the milky way. (and event which only happens rarely. like once in thousands and thousands of years.) And this will cause some gravitational pull that will effect the earth.
ok lah i lazy to type the rest, if u wanna noe just do ur own research. Its a good read =)

last verdict ?
Of course dun believe blindly lah. these are just speculations.
people fear the unknown. the more vague it is the more fear devours
do not expect it, but to learn from it
Just treat is as a blessing that mankind has survived all these years when 2012 comes.
