The other day a bunch of students came into my room telling me very seriously that the world was going to end in 2012. According to them, this was written in some old Maya wall together with a bunch of other predictions that had all become true.
I didn't really pay much attention and I figured it had been some isolated phenomenum of craziness, relatively common among my students.
To my surprise, I went to a local bookstore today and I bumped into a corner dedicated to the end of the world in 2012. There were at least 9 books there, all by different authors, informing whoever cares to know of what the prophecies are, when they are going to happen, what the end of the world is going to be like and even what is going to happen after.
Just in case you are curious, the world is going to end December 21, 2012.
I think it is quite convenient that we are informed with so much time of such an important date.
I wonder if I will get away with proscrastinating grading tests for the next 4 years...
My dearest friend,
