Remember that song by REM<\/a>? It came to mind after I read that the world might end in 2012 for the millionth time. Apparently, there\u00b4s even a specific date, Dec 21st.\u00a0I know the Western world in deep trouble, due to the current financial\u00a0crisis. However, those who have spread the news and really believe it, please\u00a0get real.<\/p>\n

The cause is a planet that is going to crash into the Earth next Thursday. It is all based on the Mayan calendar.\u00a0I have read on numerous occasions that there is a 12th planet in our system, Nibiru, that orbits the Sun every few thousand years. It would make its appearance this coming Thursday and crash into the Earth.<\/p>\n

See below three other possible explanations as to why it could happen:<\/p>\n

\"world<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

The first theory goes even further, there is a mountain\u00a0in France called Pic de Bugarach which is supposed to offer protection. French officials are concerned about the possibility of mass suicides and have blocked access to the mountain<\/a>. Apparently, both the Nazis and Mossad have performed some diggings there in the past too…\u00a0Crazy troublemakers.<\/p>\n

Many people these days\u00a0fear more the prospect of a not being able to make needs meet at the end of every month. Some others, are quite angry about it, and have been working to prove<\/a> that there will be a 22nd December 2012.<\/p>\n

\"It\u00b4s<\/p>\n

In the mean time,\u00a0Christmas is coming up, and in\u00a0London we party as if there was no tomorrow. I think it actually is the end of this sad world as we know it, and the beginning of a new and better one.\u00a0The Hobbit<\/em> movie is also out!<\/p>\n

\"It\u00b4s<\/p>\n

Enjoy yourselves, don\u00b4t worry too much, and visit back soon. Thanks so much for reading.<\/p>\n
