How To Survive The Zombie Apocalypse

Dear Friend,

Do you ever think about the end of the world? Although we did survive the Mayan's predicted date, you never really know when the world could end. We have heard many people talk about the Zombie Apocalypse (Z.A.), and we figured that you can never be to safe. So we present to you, friend, a handy-dandy guide for surviving this inevitable doom. You only have to remember the title of our blog:

D. E. A. R. F. R.I. E. N. D. 

DON'T PANIC.
This is perhaps the most useful rule. If you work yourself into a tizzy and think too hard about the fact that the undead are now chasing you trying to eat you alive, you will most likely not be able to preform at your best. And trust us, your best performance will be needed.

EAT A GOOD BREAKFAST.
We all know that breakfast is the most important meal of the day! Eat a nice big breakfast so that you can be sure to have energy to outrun the bad guys.

ALWAYS STAY WITH A BUDDY.
The colloquial "buddy system" will be impertinent to your survival. If you have not done so already, identify and talk to a close friend about being your Z.A. buddy. You will keep each other safe, sane, and smiling through it all.

RUN FAST, BUT DON'T RELY ON THIS.
Start training. You don't have to be a "runner" to survive the apocalypse  Although being a fast runner with a low PR is always great, intelligence will be the dominating traits in this speedy natural selection.

FORGET WHAT YOU ALREADY KNOW.
When you are being cornered by a zombie, don't assume that it will be anything similar to the new movie "Warm Bodies" because we promise you, it will be nothing like that. Never ever try to befriend one of these killers.

REMEMBER AN EXTRA PAIR OF SOCKS.
Socks are essential to getting out alive. One of the best feelings is sliding into a fresh pair of socks, and this momentary feeling of bliss may be what gives you that extra kick to push through.

INVEST IN AN IPHONE.
Or a similar device that can reach the internet. That way you can contact other survivors around the world, as well as refer to this blog post for helpful hints and tricks to getting out alive.

ENJOY YOURSELF.
There is no use spending the greatest adventure of your life sad! Put a smile on your face and remember, it could always be worse! You could have 1 leg! Imagine running for a pack of hungry zombies with only one leg! See? (Our apologies if you do actually only have one leg...it could be worse...you could have none.)

NEVER GIVE UP HOPE.
The moment that you have a flicker of doubt in your mind, you will probably die. Although surviving on a planet where most of the creatures want you dead seems like a large feat, there is a first time for everything and to quote our girl Selena, who says YOU'RE not worth it?

DEPEND ON YOURSELF.
Always trust yourself. In the ZA, natural instinct will play a huge role in your survival. Trust your logical instincts and as cheesy as this sounds, follow your heart.

Good luck!

Yours truly,
Kylie and Catherine
