How to Survive a Zombie Apocalypse
When you Google the word “zombie” you’ll get over 69 million different results.   Many have something to do with various movies made over the years about zombies. Others are extremely random or deemed as fake or a myth.   Perhaps for now they are just a made up being, but with all the toxins and unhealthy things permeating our air and put in our foods each day. A zombie apocalypse doesn’t sound that far off from becoming reality.   This could become a serious threat to the human existence and every single person should be well equipped with knowledge to survive the upcoming events!
First of all, many people have a false conception of the zombie apocalypse.   Some people may say they’d go crazy with a ton of guns and kill all of them.   Assuming these zombies can actually move pretty quickly, one person against hundreds of zombies at a time, probably will end up being fatal.   It is important to stock up on guns of course, because there could potentially be a zombie around every corner.   Though, being practical, the very first thing you need to do is make sure you have plenty of food and water.   Non perishable items preferably.   Depending on where you live, it may get pretty chilly, so always have a surplus of blankets to snuggle up in, so you don’t freeze to death!   No matter the amount of guns, if you don’t have the necessities to live, you won’t survive, whether you are attacked by zombies or not.
Next, safe and secure shelter is very important.   This means padlocks, boarded up windows, and heavy duty security.   Having several different safe houses is essential too.   If you have to leave one for any reason, there will always be a “plan B.”   Inside each of these safe houses there should be the supplies talked about earlier, and plenty of them.
Also, if possible, find a group of people to be with.   Not too large to cause too much attention, but large enough to keep you...
