One Day until the [Supposed] End of the World

Today, I put in yet another job application (this time to a gas station that my boyfriend told me was currently hiring), released a book on the local college campus, and did some survey emails. If the world were to end tomorrow, then this will have been the last day to have done all of these things.
According to this particular site, the supposed time the world is such that I can expect it to end before my alarm goes off in the morning. (I try to get up at six.) If I wake up tomorrow, I might check the site tomorrow and see if it's still there and what has become of the timer.

If tomorrow comes and goes without the world ending, then everybody who swore by the October 21 prediction is going to look more foolish than they did back on May 21. I wonder what the explanation will be on Saturday.

My plans for tomorrow at this time consist of my usual volunteer work at a local thrift store in the day and seeing a movie with my boyfriend at night. If Saturday does come, I will likely be spending it with my boyfriend. (I've spent a lot of my Saturdays with him during these past couple of months.) Needless to say, if I update this blog at any point after tomorrow it will likely be Saturday night or later before I do.

That's where I'm at. What are your plans for tomorrow? And if Saturday does come, what do you plan to do then?

Two Days until the [Supposed] End of the World

This evening, I chatted with my boyfriend on Facebook for a while. If the prediction that the world will end on October 21 is to come true, then that will be the last time we chat on Facebook since he has another commitment tomorrow night and we will be spending time together on Friday night.
There is also a new South Park episode running as I type this. If the October 21 prediction were to come true, then this will the last episode of that show to ever run.

This was also one of my usual days of volunteer work at a local thrift store. Depending on what time the world is "supposed" to end, if the October 21 prediction comes true, then either today or Friday will be the last day I work there.

That's where I'm at with that. There are only a couple of days to vote on the poll if you have not already.

Three Days until the [Supposed] End of the World

Today, I put in an application to the Claire's that is located in the mall in my hometown, did laundry, and later met up with my boyfriend at a nearby park.  If the October 21st prediction regarding the end of the world comes true, then this will likely be the last time I ever do the aforementioned.

Right now, I'm watching a movie called The Sixth Sense on ABC Family. If the world were to end this Friday, then this will be the last time I ever see that movie.

That's where I'm at right now. I notice I haven't gotten any more votes lately on my poll. There are three more days left to do that if you have not already.

Four Days until the [Supposed] End of the World

It has come to my attention that according to Harold Camping's latest message, the end of the world will end quietly. There will be no earthquakes or anything like that, and the elect will be raptured quietly, and everyone else will die quietly, and that will be that.
So, if I were to go about my business as normal on Friday (which is when the world will allegedly end), and I'm not one of the elect, I, along with anyone else that is not amongst the elect could suddenly drop dead? Is that it?

Also, we're on Monday of our supposed last week here on Earth. So, if the October 21 prediction comes true, we will no longer have any more weekends.

Don't forget, if you have not voted on the poll, there is still time.

Five Days until the [Supposed] End of the World

I know I'm skipping a day once again. As was the case last time, I was otherwise engaged all day.

According to some professed Christian websites, the end of the world will be this coming Friday.

Yesterday, I was at the annual Homecoming parade in my hometown. If the October 21 prediction of the world ending comes true, then it will be the last Homecoming parade ever. I also saw my sister, nephew and niece. If the October 21 prediction comes true, then that may be the last time I will have ever seen them.

Today, I went to church as usual, and as is the tradition in said church we had our monthly fellowship luncheon, which we normally do on the third Sunday of the month. If the October 21 prediction comes true, then it will the the last time that both of those things happen. I also attended the memorial service of an elderly gentleman who died last weekend. As far as I can recall, I've never been to a memorial service, just funerals where the body was present. (Whether or not I'd go to the burial generally depended on the circumstances of the time.) If the October 21 prediction comes true, then this will be the last memorial service I will have ever gone to.

That's where I'm at right now. Remember, if you have not yet voted on the poll, you have five days left to do so.

Eight Days until the [Supposed] End of the World

Today, I picked up an application to the Claire's in my hometown. They're not currently hiring, but they will at least keep the application on file for a while. That seems to be a common thing in buisnesses these days.

Anyway, if it's really true that the world will end on the 21st of this month, then this will likely be the last time I apply there. (I will likely turn in the application either next Tuesday or next Thursday as I'm otherwise engaged on the other days of the week.) Of course, if the world does end, then I won't have to worry about getting a job.

Remember, there is still time to vote on the poll if you have not already.

Nine Days until the [Supposed] End of the World

Today, I mailed out a package to my dad for his birthday on my way to my volunteer work at a local thrift store. If the prediction that the world will end on October 21 of this year, then that might be the last time I ever have cause to go to the post office.

Those are the only thoughts I have right now.

(Note: This post is late being published. Sorry for the inconvenience.)

Ten Days until the [Supposed] End of the World

I forgot to mention last night that it was Thanksgiving in Canada. No, I'm not from Canada, but my stepdad is. So yesterday, my mom prepared a special dinner in honor of that. We had bacon-wrapped turkey breast, stuffing, sweet potatoes, green been casserole, cranberry sauce, and rolls. For dessert, we had butterscotch chocolate chip pie topped with whipped cream.
If the prediction that the world will end on the 21st of this month is true, then that's the last time we will have done that.

P.S. I see I have gotten two more votes on my poll, both of which were "no". There is still time to vote if you haven't already.

Eleven Days until the [Supposed] End of the World

I know I'm skipping a couple of days. In my defense, at least as far as Saturday was concerned, I was busy with my boyfriend pretty much all day. On Sunday, I guess I just didn't get around to blogging here.
Saturday, my mom and stepdad were out of town. My boyfriend came over late that morning. We were at the house most of the time but we went out for a little bit in the evening. If the prediction of October 21 being the end of the world comes true, then that could very well be the last time he is over at my place. It would also be the last time my mom and stepdad will have gone on an out of town trip together.

Sunday, I found out that someone that often sat in the row behind me in church had died the night before. Although he was elderly, it kind of surprised me as the last time I had seen him was the Sunday before that. If I can't predict someone's death, why would I bother with trying to predict the end of the world? I think a lot of major stuff happens at a time when one does not expect it to. As far as I knew, the gentleman in question did not concern himself with the world coming to an end or trying to predict it. He seemed perfectly fine with life, especially with being able to get up and go to church on Sunday. He will be missed.

Those are my thoughts for now. Remember, there is still time to vote on the poll if you have not already.

Fourteen Days until the [Supposed] End of the World

Today started off fairly well. It was one of my typical days of volunteer work at a local thrift store. I sold a lot of stuff this morning. I was also on a roll with straightening up some of the displays.
Then, this afternoon, I made a mistake that got me in trouble. I won't go into details here, but let's just say that I was feeling so guilty and frustrated with myself over said mistake that I would've welcomed an end to this world so that I would never do anything that would upset or otherwise do a disservice to someone else ever again.

If the October 21 prediction is correct, I at least have two weeks left to redeem myself and to quit doing anything wrong ever again. I hope I can stop messing up or at least stop doing anything wrong that upsets or incoveniences someone else.

Fifteen Days until the [Supposed] End of the World

Today, I put in an application for our local Big Lots. From my understanding, they keep the applications on file for 90 days before one has to reapply. I have applied there multiple times. If certain websites are correct about the end of the world being on the 21st of this year, then this will be the last time I ever apply there.

Tonight, I went to a poker game per invitation from my boyfriend. More specifically, it was Texas Hold'em. (Unfortunately, I had a bit of beginner's anxiety if there is such a thing.)  If the October 21st prediction were to come true, then this might be my last chance to do this.

(Note: I had meant to post this last night, but this must not have happened. Sorry about that.)

Sixteen Days until the [Supposed] End of the World

I've seen the show South Park since either middle school or high school. Nobody in my household seems to care that I do.
Anyway, after having gone on a mid-season break since I guess June, they're coming out with a new episode tonight. I'm hoping to catch it.

I don't know if there will be a new episode next week or the week after that. However, if certain Christian websites are correct about the end of the world being on the 21st of this month, then South Park will only be able to do three new episodes (including the one scheduled to air tonight) at best. If on the other hand, the world continues after the 21st, then they'll be able to do all the new episodes they want until the world DOES end or until the producers of the show call it quits, whichever comes first.

Seventeen Days until the [Supposed] End of the World

I'm involved in an online bookclub called Bookcrossing. For this club, you can register books that you can get an identification number for, read (or not) and then either release in some random public place or send it somewhere, and you can help track the book's journey.
Anyway, today I released a copy of Barefoot by Elin Hilderbrand on the local college campus. This is not the first time I have released a book there. However, depending on the situation between now and the 21st of this month, if certain websites are right about the end of the world occuring on the 21st, then today's release could potentially be the last one. That is, unless 1) I finish another book and am in a position to release it within the next seventeen days and/or 2) I am able to find a book that I had finished and can release that. (I had misplaced it somewhere.)

Remember, if you have not voted on the poll already, there is still time.

Eighteen Days until the [Supposed] End of the World

There's not much to report for what has been going on in the daytime. However tonight, I've been watching Billy Madison on TV. (And by watching, I mostly mean having it running in the background while chatting on Facebook with my boyfriend.) I think the first time I ever saw it was in eighth grade.

Like any movie, this one only runs on TV so many times. If certain Christian websites are correct about the end of the world being on the 21st of this year, this might be the last night I ever see it, assuming that I never rent it on DVD or see it on TV at another time. But then, I might very well see it on TV again within the next eighteen days with THAT being the last time I see it.

But of course, we will have to wait until October 21 actually comes to see if the world will end at that time.

P.S. I noticed that there has been another vote on my blog, and it's a no. If you have not voted already, there is still time.

Nineteen Days until the [Supposed] End of the World

The church I go to has communion on the first Sunday of every month, so today was that day this month.  If certain websites are correct about the 21st of this month being the end of the world, then today's communion will be the last one that the church I've been going to will have ever had.
On an unrelated note, I noticed that I have gotten another vote on my poll. This time I got a "yes". If I recall correctly, I think I got one "yes" on the poll I had awhile back asking people whether or not they believed that Judgement Day would be on May 21 of this year. Anyway, thank you to those who have voted on the poll and/or commented thus far. There is still time to vote if you have not already.

Those are my thoughts for today. Lord willing, I will be posting more tomorrow.

Twenty Days until the [Supposed] End of the World

Well, we are officially in the month of October. If certain websites are correct about when the world will end, this will be the last month we will ever see.
Today, I took a trip with my mom to see my sister and her kids. (We were going to go last week, but my mom was sick at the time, so we had to reschedule.) If the October 21 prediction is correct regarding the end of the world, and I don't see my sister's family before then, then this will have been the last time I see them.

I see that I haven't gotten a lot of votes on my poll lately. But then, I have evidently not been getting a lot of visitors here lately. Oh well, anything can happen in the next twenty days, and there is still time to vote on the poll.
