For the most part, the Changchun Friends website is not very active and has been superseded by the Tencent "Wechat" app by the local expat community. This website is maintained sporadically, people may still join and membership is still open, but if you are a spammer, stay away. The archived information here is still useful, but some may be out of date. There are plans to make it more useful for static information in the future. If anyone needs information about Changchun or China, you may post a message and it probably will get a response but not immediately.

Changchun Friends

a great way to get involved

17:11PM - New Cartoon added -Just 2 days to GO!!!. Again.

The End of the World IS coming - Mayan Calendar - What do you believe? Are you worried? Or let's just have one big party.

2 days to go.

21st  23rd of December at 19:11pm.

Here is the link with the actual Changchun date and time.

Mayan Timer


0 DAYS TO GO  

World clock converter

+13:0 hrs
China is 13:0 hours behind of Mexico That means when it is 1:00 am (midnight) in Mexico City Mexico,

it is 12:00 noon in Beijing China (same calendar day)

11.11 UTC is the exact time which is 19:11 in Changchun so TGI TEOTW - Thank God It's The End Of The World - Countdown Party at Grandpa's  - and I hear there'll will be a Secret Santa.

Though when I use other time calculators it spews out 23:11pm so I am still trying to confirm when we will all meet oblivion - though an hour or 2 this way or the other at the end doesn't really matter. Some believe the actual day is the 23rd and Sunday does suit me better and it is much more appropriate, don't you think? As Friday is such a negative day to end the world.

The ancient Mayan civilization predicted that the world was coming to an end on December 21, 2012, as it was the end of their calendar.

Five cycles of 126 years each, a total of 630 years, come to an end on the 21st of December.

Ancient Mayan prophets foretold of an earth-shattering event on December 21, 2012 (or 23rd).

In the Mexican town of Tapachula, a clock counts the minutes until the last day of the Mayan calendar.

SO just in case they are right we should live these days as if they were our last.

Use it to motivate yourself to do all that you can.

Complete everything you start - but then again if we are all dead does it matter.

Many people think the Mayans were not of this earth. This is because the calendar and many of their teachings were too advanced for their time - they were geniuses that appeared, built a civilisation and then quickly disappeared, leaving behind so much, including their famous astrological calendar that has baffled experts for centuries. Were they extra-terrestrial and knew something that we don't?

That final week we WILL have an earth-shattering party to celebrate life.

The 21st is a Friday but because of differing interpretations - THE END might come on the Sunday 23rd.

So our party should be the 20th or before, or if we are feeling brave - from the 21st to midnight on the 23rd.

This is the ultimate bucket list - The F@#$ it Bucket List. 

You might as well do that thing you have always wanted to do - nothing illegal just in case the Mayans got it wrong - which is unlikely. So unless you can physically see a big meteor hurtling towards you, or your feet are getting wet from a tsunami the size of Mount Everest speeding towards you, swallowing up Changchun, then keep it legal.

 

Make out your wills just in case some survive somehow.

Forget your diets and your fitness regimes. 

 

Not many people get to know how many days they have left - most of you do now - there are a few that might not make it as long as December 21st - and we all know who they are - but for the rest you have just 0 DAYS TO GO

End of the World party?  Okay, sounds good, let's go for it!  Re-match?  Boxing or Ultimate Fighting?  The latter definately would be interesting and regardless of the outcome we'd both go out with a bang.

We need to have this "end of days party" somewhere where we can dig in, make trenches and survive the disaster. This could also have the biggest show that Changchun has ever seen. Imagine...this is your last chance to sing, dance, poetry, readings, bending spoons, the re-match(david and little John with no referee, I mean, it doesn't matter right), and any other talent you wish to showcase one last time.

No more work people!
