The End of The World

Lucy wrote about how to survive a zombie apocalypse earlier so I thought I would stick with that cheerful theme and name a few of the (non-scientific or religious) (completely rubbish) reasons why the forthcoming end of the world is likely to happen this Friday.

1) End of Gossip Girl
Many people of twitter are saying that it may as well be the end of the world as tonight the very last episode of Gossip Girl ever will be aired. After that- no more Chuck and Blair, no more stunning Serena Van Der Woodsen and no more beautiful Nate Archibald. That definitely signifies that the end is nigh. (I really hope Jenny and Vanessa don't make any appearances...)

2) No good TV to watch
Not only is Gossip Girl over, but pretty much every single TV show is currently on their mid-season hiatus. I don't really know what I'm supposed to do with myself until January 8th 2013 when Pretty Little Liars returns.
Revise? Gosh no.
Clearly television producers are all direct Mayan descendants and know that the time is right to put their programme on halt so they don't lose any money when the zombies take over broadcasting.

3) 2013
13 is a well known unlucky number, who wants to live in a year where you would constantly have to write it at the end of your date? Enough said.

4) Starbucks shutting down
Starbucks Coffee is slowly collapsing because of some tax thing (don't ask me for details, Lucy is the news expert here), meaning no more over-priced but wonderful chai tea lattes and whatever sweet item tempts you when you feel like it. So far 5% of their US shops have shut and it's only going to get worse.
I don't think anyone could live without Starbucks- think of all the half-asleep, grumpy commuters that need their morning coffee; where are they supposed to get it from? Cafe Nero? I don't think so, they don't write your name on your cup.

However, so that I end on a positive note here's one piece of solid proof why the world is definitely not going to end:

Justin Bieber once said that the end of the world would be the day when his "Beliebers" forgot about him, and as far as the whole world is aware they are still going strong, ergo, the world shan't be ending yet. Fear not. Biebs knows best.

If the world does end, I hope everyone has enjoyed their lives and tweeted everything that they needed to say in their lives.
