Didn’t the month just start? I can’t believe we’re already halfway through November. The year is almost over, but there is much to look forward to. There are Christmas vacations in just a few weeks, I have a couple of tough exams coming up for my class, but in a few weeks that will all be over, and then a new year will start!
Do you believe that the world will end next year? The Mayan Calendar rolls over on December 21st, 2012, and some have interpreted this to mean that a major cataclysm will occur. I don’t know about that, but the world is changing. There are some tough spots with the economy, but I believe that it is changing for the better. The genie has been let out of the bottle, and there is no putting it back in.
