I Need Your Help More Than Ever!

[Samchu]

I have to say that some of the coolest people happen to be eccentric and personally I happen to think it makes you slightly more baddass than "normal" people. I've never spoken to you but I've seen what you get up to around TPM and you seem like a pretty cool, outgoing guy to me.

As for the Apocolypse...it's happened. We all missed it. Julius Caesar and the Roman calendar, aka, the introduction of Leap Years means December for the Mayans was actually...oh heck I don't know the exact maths but we passed over it a couple of months back. So I wouldn't worry too much on that front.

That said, maybe there is something to your dreams. We still can't prove what dreams are so there's no sense in writting them off completely, and approaching things with a twinge of scepticism is always good.

As for advice, I would suggest starting by writing out all the things you want to accomplish. You said there are a lot of things you want to do so I say get them on paper. It's one thing to have something in your head and quite another to actually see it in front of you. After that, start looking into what you have to do to achieve those goals, see which are long term things and which can be done sooner. Just do it, as Nike would say. It's clear that there are a lot of people in the world willing to back you up and lend you support - even from an obscure site such as this. So what have you got to lose?

I hate to be nitpicky here, but I've seen this spread like wildfire and it needs to be nipped. The "correction" that people keep trying to claim puts that dreaded day a few years back, has actually already been accounted for, and is what gives rise to the December 21, 2012 date. I just find it kind of funny that people believe that the scientists who have studied the Mayan calendar just completely forgot about this whole leap year thing when figuring out which Gregorian dates correspond to certain Mayan dates.

That said, the Mayan calendar doesn't end that day. It works just like our calendar where the years keep counting up. The only reference to that day possibly being the end of the world is that the Mayans believed that there were other worlds before ours and that the previous one ended on the first day of its 14th baktun (a baktun being a 400-year cycle in the Mayan calendar), and December 21, 2012 is the first day of this world's 14th baktun. But the Mayans have made references to dates long after that, indicating that they didn't believe this world would suffer the same fate, at least not on the same day. Of course, it's all mythology anyway, so I can't see why people are so worried.

Anyway talking about that is reminding me of a certain RPG...

TL;DR version: The last four times the world ended, I came out just fine.
