With all of the sarcastic hype that’s going around because of the supposed Rapture (dun…dun…DUN!!!!), I can’t really help but join the bandwagon and make fun of its absurdity with the rest of the world. But since I use to have a border-line obsession with the apocalypse, I think it’s a little bit fun to think about the possibility of the world coming to an end no less than 24 hours from now. Real or not, I think all of our lives have gotten a little bit more exciting because of this…or maybe it’s just me and my boring life.
If this whole entire thing was real, if Harold Camping’s calculations were right all along, this is how I would’ve taken advantage of my time left here on this earth:
1. Keep stuffing my face with food
Yes, I love food very much. Knowing that the world would end in 24 hours, there will be no shame, no guilt to devouring every food on sight until my body can’t take it anymore.
For breakfast, I’d make myself a nice, big hearty meal. I’d have chocolate chip covered pancakes, bacon, hash browns, sunny side up eggs, and I’ll wash it all down with a nice tall glass of freshly squeezed orange juice. For lunch, I’d have Korean BBQ. For appetizers, I’d have fried potato skins. For dinner, Shabu Shabu. And for dessert, I would have anything that is French-influenced, like cream puffs, fondant au chocolate, cream bulee and the like. Oh it would be so amazing.
2. Spend quality time with my family
I think “quality time” to me would be simply giving each of my family members a really big and long bear hug (as I try to hold in my tears). Because nothing says, “Everyone’s going to die tomorrow soo here’s an I love you!” like a bear hug.
3. Tell my friends how much they really mean to me
I have few friends, but they’re really good friends. We’re typically not the type to be emotional and mushy to each other. Like, we’re not the kind of girls who’d say, “Hey, did I ever tell you that you are an astounding person? Thank you for being my friend.” It’s more like, “Dude, you just volley punched that guy in the nads like Ip Man. You’re awesome.”
A time like this, I would certainly have to be more vulnerable, open and thank them for being my true buddies.
4. Try illegal substances
First off, I have never touched a single drug in my entire life, ever (besides the medication for my allergies I get at CVS Pharmacy!). I am 100% clean and I have no intentions of experimenting with anything illegal whatsoever. But. If I knew for sure our lives would end the following day, I’d say, “F-ck it, it’s the end of the world, let’s get shitfaced with shrooms, LSD, and possibly coke.” In reality though, I probably wouldn’t know where the hell to get any of these things I just mentioned. Um, I guess I’ll stick with my cream puffs then.
5. Take a nice, long, lazy nap with my boyfriend
Two things I love the most: My boyfriend (I know, I know, awwwwwww) and taking naps.
Naps are one of the greatest things nature has given to us, so with the remaining time I have left, I would definitely like to end my night…er I mean life, with a really good nap while my boyfriend spoons me. I also don’t really want to be awake when shit starts hitting the fan–I rather nap my way through the Rapture, thanks.
