2012

We were having this conversation today. Surviving 2012.

If you were given a chance, a chance for you to get onboard the Ark, will you get on it? You must know that, there are only four arks. Each of them fully loaded with only royalties and wealthy people. So, even if you survive the eruption of the volcano, the tremble of the earth’s crust and the seismic shock waves of the ocean, will you survive the ultimate test; humans?

Don’t feel happy for yourself having got onboard the Ark, yet. As far as I could think of, the world is going to end; our lives will still going to a complete foot stop, with or without the Ark.

Why is that? I thought we did survive the lavas, the quakes and the tsunamis.

Yes, but you still have to survive humans. After all, we are the one who messed up the world. I can’t really imagine how the world looks like without many things. Starting from the basic things, can you life without electricity and water supply? Of course, someone has to go down there to get it all set up before we colonise that place! Yes, of course. We were so get used to what we had. Definitely someone has to do it.

Say, there is a group of “someone” who know how to do this, then what they’ll need is either fuel or coal, the most common and easy way to generate electricity. Do we have another group of “someone” for this? How about the outbreak of fatal disease? There’ll be corpses all around the world, no matter where you go. This will definitely leads to many biologically evolved virus and deadly illness. Lacking of medical researchers, laboratories and equipments means the chance of our survival is close to zero.

So now if you know how things work, you’ll probably know that things are chained together. We can’t produce this without that, while that cannot be started without this. There are so many things, issues, problems, etc that we have put into consideration. You might have all the resources to build a city, but you might not have the manpower to do so. If you have the manpower to do so, you don’t have enough food the feed all of them. When you have enough food to feed them, you won’t have enough resources to keep producing that amount of food. In my opinion, the wisest person will not be able to foresee what is going to happen, the situation will be so chaotic that you can’t even imagine. So, if we were to survive the 2012, we’ll probably need half of the world? I think, yes!

So, are you still planning to survive 2012? Think again! =P Don’t be so upset yet, remember Will Smith in "I Am Legend"? His case was much worse than ours’, he stays in earth alone! And Milla Jovovich in "Resident Evil"? There are zombies everywhere! =P

My conclusion? Enjoy 2012 and don't even bring me onboard that Ark! I can tell you that I can't contribute to anything! =P
