A Long, Zombieless Weekend

This weekend was very nice. I got to wish my mom a surprise Happy Birthday(which was very fun) and I got to spend a wonderful Valentine's Day with my even more wonderful girlfriend. But even better, is I did not see one zombie. From Friday until today (Monday) I did not see one zombie. Thank You!

But now I am back on the campus of DSU and again in zombie territory. Once again, I am confined to my room unless I want to take the risk of venturing outside. What was once a nice break from my room at the TC has become a very deadly adventure.

I still have not heard the carnage report as of yet of this weekend. Hopefully there are plenty of humans left to keep me sane in the coming week. I can only imagine the swarms of zombies already coming back to campus after this weekend to feed upon the rest of the people that are still alive.

Peace Is But A Memory

Days after Zombie Infection: 3

It is getting harder and harder every minute as humans are being turned into zombies all the time now. It is not an uncommon sight at all to see a horde of zombies ambushing a group of humans or a couple zombies chasing someone down. It is hard for me to say, but we are outnumbered.

I do not think the humans have lost this battle though. We may be outnumbered but we are far from defeated. We will fight these zombies with everything we've got until we can't fight no more.

Today there was a small lull in the action. From sometime around 10am to about 2pm there was no killing. No hunting, no feeding and no ambushing. No one has any idea where this came from but it was a nice distraction from reality. It was a time of peace where everyone could walk freely without fear. But that time ended far to soon.

The killing, fighting, hunting, and feeding have all started again.... We will persevere.

Encounters with the Last Kind

Days after Zombie Infection: 2

I had my first encounter last night. Well I'm not sure if you can call it an encounter, we did not interact at all. It was the first time I had seen a zombie.

I was walking down the street last night and someone started walking towards me a couple blocks down. I couldn't tell if it was a human or zombie so just to be on the safe side, I went to the opposite side of the street and continued to walk. As I got closer I realized it was in fact a zombie.

This zombie was walking fast and looked like it was on some sort of a mission. Probably on a feeding mission. But either way, it was preoccupied and did not even notice me. My heart was racing but I made it home safely without another incident.

I still have not given up. The rest of the survivors have not yet either. We will survive.

Day After Z-Day: I'm Still Alive

Days after Zombie Infection: 1

I have been inside for most of the time since the first zombie was spotted. It's safer inside. I am though finding that maybe I did not ready myself sufficiently. I am going to have to venture out soon for supplies, water, food, ramen, oreos and the like.

Fortunately, it appears that everything still functions properly, electricity, water, internet, phone services. We will be in good shape until those things start failing I think. As long as I can get on Facebook and Twitter I at least won't go insane, and I think there are a lot of other survivors with me on that one.

I am currently listening to Dave Matthews Band, he tends to keep me happy in times like this when I feel all alone. Until 'Gravedigger' comes on. Then I get depressed for a song or so....

My Maverick is slowly becoming my best friend. I don't leave home without it anymore. I think that some people are not taking this infestation serious enough. Some don't have guns at all and talk about "If I saw a zombie I wouldn't run, I'm not going out of my way to stay safe, it's not worth it." That is not a good attitude to have this early on. What happens when your best friend turns? Are you just going to give up? I'm not. You can count on that.

Z-Day Is Coming And There Is Nowhere To Hide

Are you prepared? You know, for the Apocalypse? The Zombie Apocalypse? You better be, it's coming and it is going to be crRRrrrRRaaaAAAaazzzy! So if you're not prepared already like the rest of us, I would check out Zombie Survival and Defense Wiki, you should be able to find what you need to at least stand a chance on there.

But this post isn't really about Z-Day, it's not really about you surviving, it's more about Humans vs. Zombies. It's a game to help get people ready for the Zombie Apocalypse. If you haven't heard about it yet, check out the website and try to find a game going on somewhere in your area.

So DSU just officially started their game of HvZ yesterday. So far, there are at least 70 people signed up to play.

Now I have not been outside a lot yet, but the times I have been out have been super intense. Patient 0 still has not identified themselves yet, so it could still be anyone. With my trusty Maverick at my side though, I will not fear, for I can stun for ten minutes. It is going to get fun and scary the longer we play. I'm excited.

Goodluck to all those out there playing HvZ, and goodluck to all of you unprepared citizens, for when the zombies come, they show no mercy.

You're Weird!

Everybody has their own quirks. Some of them are small, private things that nobody will ever know about. Smiling anytime you see a reflective surface, eating your pizza backwards, not a big deal. Some people have bigger quirks...

Basically, I am writing this blog to share a particular encounter I had earlier today. This particular woman was acting just a little stranger than normal. I am not sure if she acts this way all of the time, maybe this was a one time thing, but it sure was weird.

Today I walked past a lady talking on her cell phone. She had her phone cradled between her ear and her shoulder. What's weird about that, right? She wasn't carrying anything, that's what is weird. The more I think about it, the more I can't figure out why I have such a problem with this, but I do.

Let me paint this picture a little bit more vividly. I ask you to just imagine, close your eyes, and picture this in your mind. Walking down the sidewalk on a cold, Wednesday morning. A woman is walking towards you with her head cocked to the side. As you get closer, you can hear her talking. Now you notice that she is on her cell phone. Her arms dangle at her side while she walks. She just looks awkward as if she has no control over these arms of hers.

How is that for you? Weird enough? Good, it was really weird for me. :D

Swag

How's it going?!?

Ya, me too. Well I just thought I would let everyone know I am going to be blogging a little more. I've got a couple of ideas that I'm going to be implementing in the next couple weeks here. Just trying to make a little extra money here and there.

First, I know that no one wants to hear this, but I'm going to be doing some reviews and things on the blog here. Try to make some extra money. You know, just doing the college kid thing and trying to make it all work.

Second, I've got some things that I will probably be putting on eBay. I'll make sure that those get up on here too, it won't be much, but that will all be up.

I've also started up a CafePress store, SunSchrein's Shop. I've got some really simple designs that I wouldn't mind having in shirts. Some things that I can't believe that I haven't seen yet.

So I guess this is just kind of a little update, and I will be doing this a little bit more regularly.
