Story: Aizril as the subducting oceanic lithosphere

i'll be having my last paper tomorrow which starts at 2.30pm-4.30pm and this one is the toughest of all..mannn..and im slacking off right now..excited,nervous,happy, i dont know how to describe my feelings right now..a part of me says "Ui, study bui!" and another part of me says "oh man...i cant finish this.."

so i decided to blog..since i wanna take a break right now..later tah ku sambung revise earth plates & tectonics =) hopefully X) otherwise i would bang my head on the earth's CMB and D" layer...lol..influenced tah banar..anyways, i feel like a subducting slab right now..slowly being swollen by the earth's mantle..although there are forces that are helping me to resist the force of slab pull..still im slooooowly being driven down into the mantle..when i reach the 410km seismic discontinuity, surely i will undergo a change in terms of mineral arrangements..from olivine which is orthorhombic to Beta Spinel, then off i change to Gamma Spinel before i 'mutated' to perovskite at the next seismic discontinuity which lies at 660km from the surface of the earth..there's an arguement that there is such thing like post-perovskite...i dont know though..jadi jadilah ehe X)

doesnt mean that i will stop diving down deeper towards the abyss of molten mantle rocks..well i might get deflected by the 660km discontinuity..but i might have the opportunity to penetrate through it unhindered just like my other fellow comrades who successfully discover the 'wonderness' of CMB...

well, i hope i can penetrate through though..you know, its because there are soooo many things which humans cant identify inside the mantle..so the earth is actually heterogenous..i saw the proofs..yeah, although im just merely a part of plate tectonics 'henchmen' but i KNOW some bits of pieces...seismometers recorded some scattered waves so its not simple as it look..humans have many work to do if they want to solve those mysteries...as for me..i would try to dive slowlyyyy to the 'plate graveyard' region which lies at the lower mantle~i think its on CMB

Hope i dont clash with some upwelling plumes on my way down there..you never know what happens when baddy plumes get you...they generate hotspots on the surface of the earth..but if i 'interact' with them on my way down..i would probably go 'slab roast'...okay CUT IT OOUTTTT X)

im out...sorry for the awkward post..lol
