Umm That would be fairly rad
It sounds like an episode of the Walking Dead
Haha I have never seen that. But in Zombieland (also about zombies) the main character survives the first three weeks of the apocalypse And he leaves and nobody is alive... Is that how the Walking Dead goes?
I would freak out, go drive around, then try to enjoy it! In the beginning they show an empty neighborhood that looked like it was abandoned
Hahah if there was actually nobody (not zombies) would you what would you do?
people fled and left their homes
Oh shoot... Things that look empty but aren't are the most terrifying.
Hmmm, I think I would leave my house. I would want to make sure I have enough food at home. I'm guessing if this happened we wouldn't have wifi or cell data. I couldn't check facebook to see what happened!
Ooh true. But I feel like it would stay up Like it's mostly satellites and the people mostly just fix bugs... The servers would probably stay up So what if you got on an online chat or onto facebook and there was a new facebook group for people who were still there?
what would you do?
I'd check for people, then probably get in my car and bounce out to find other people?... Probably load up on food and weapons and stuff
Exactly! I have terrible survival instincts because all I know I get from movies. weapons are definitely important Do you think guns would be most effective?
Hahah I feel like Supernatural was mildly helpful. I should have taken the survival class at BYU! And I think they are but not. They are good for far ranges so you don't have to get close to things. However, ammo is a huge issue
Ok, but in Supernatural they use salt and holy water sometimes. I don't think that would help me haha BYU offers a survival class?
Long blades and bats and stuff are probably good too because they have more range but don't require ammo
What is it under on the course catalog?
and Yes. It used to be under Rec management but I can't find anything there anymore. It's in there with rock climbing, mountain biking, canyoneering, etc.
Oh, that's right. I wish I had a chance to take one of those.
You graduated?
Not yet
Senior?
December! yes! you?
Wahooooo! me too! we're so close!
I took a cooking class and that was so fun. Free food every class period.
what.... WHy didn't I know about this?
Yes, it was great. Intro to Food Preparation in the Home. Under SFL
I knew there was a floral design class. I think there used to be a dutch oven cooking class. I wish I had time! I'm already packing in the classes and it's debatable if I can get the class extension I asked for *am going to ask for They don't want you to take more than 18 credits in a semester it turns out
I think that is BYU's way of making sure we stay sane. I'm taking 10 credits fall semester.
Valid. I could take 12 and be fine. I just want to get a double minor so I'm going to do all the work this summer for 7 credits.
A good balance. I need my social life. Actually, I need sleep more than my social life.
Then just take 11 in the fall. And I need sleep so badly What's your major?
I'm taking spring and summer classes as well. Political Science
Ooh that's cool! What are you going to do in January/ *?
Good question. I plan on staying in Utah for a while. I'll be applying for jobs! But I decided that right after graduation I am taking 2 weeks off to go to Europe.
Where in Europe?
Ireland, Spain, England, and maybe Germany.
Shoot! That's awesome! Is your husband graduating then too?
Oh and revisit Scotland! No husband. I am one of the few graduating without a husband at BYU. hahah. That is why I have these plans. I have to figure out what to do with my dog while I am gone.
Shoot. Sorry that was my last conversation then! My bad! And me too! Wahoo! It's a little better that way... So much freedommmm!
The possibilities are endless! My plans don't depend on anyone so really I could do anything. It's exciting!
Take a job in an  embassy! Move to Europe!! Hahah
That is definitely a possibility I have considered. What are you studying?
Electrical Engineering! And I've considered trying to get transferred to Europe or Asia !
Have you been to Europe and or Asia?
Yes to both! Just to India and Singapore in Asia, and then France, Belgium, The Netherlands, and Italy in Europe! You have been to Scotland? Where else?
England, Scotland, Italy, France, Peru, Mexico, and Canada. I need to go somewhere in Asia!
I always forget that Canada isn't just North Montana!
I've been wanting to visit Japan, Thailand, and South Korea. We went on a family vacation to Canada. It was about an 8 hour drive.
I want to see that part of Asia too! And where in Canada did you go? I've been to Victoria and then over to Niagra falls
Niagara Falls area and I think Ontario outside of the touristy falls area. My dad has a cousin there so we went to see him. I spent 4th of July in Canada and could see the fireworks on the other side from the Niagara Falls New York side. Way cool.
Oh fun!! That sounds amazing! If you ever get a chance though, go to Victoria!
Where is Victoria?
It's over by Seattle, and it's one of the most beautiful places I have ever been
I guess I could google it haha
Eh. Google is always good!
I want to go to Banff National Park! I've seen pictures of some beautiful lakes there.
But the botanical gardens there are seriously awe inspiring! And yes! I had a national park pass to canada last year and didn't even make it up ! I'm still dissappointed in myself
Oh man, that's too bad. I'll add that to my list. I think most people think Canada isn't that cool. But hey, I think it is. Have you gotten the national parks pass here in the US? I'm thinking of getting it.
I agree! There is cool nature and less people! And I haven't but I have friends with them that I just bum off of. It's super nice
Good idea. My friends rather go to the beach though. I have to make them go on hikes with me.
I'm going to try being a beach bum this summer, I don't think I'll like it as much as being a mountain girl though.
What beach? Or where are you trying to go? Florida beaches are the best!
I'll be interning in Florida! : ] So those ones!
perfect! go to clearwater beach in Florida!
Hahah that's where I'll be living! Wow. This makes me feel so much better!
Perfect! Hopefully you'll like it as much as I did. I'm from the East Coast. Family vacations were to Florida, Canada, North Carolina, South Carolina, and New York. Disney World in Florida is also fun, even as an adult haha
I'm from Utah, where our vacations were to the west coast! And/or to national parks But I'm actually going to Disney World on Friday!
That's why I am trying to explore the West Coast! We're so close to California, Oregon, and Washington. I love it. Have fun! I have yet to visit Disney Land. People say Disney land is better but I don't believe them.
Lived in Oregon! And have family in Seattle!
Lucky! Did you like it there?
Can't help you on the disney land/world thing though. Never been to Disney World! And I LOVED it!
Ah, so fun. Is it really always raining there? I've heard that it really depends...
I love Seattle, I love Oregon, I think it's fun! And it's rainy in the winter, but the summer is amazing! It's very green and the sun is great!
That's good to know. I should plan a trip to Oregon this summer. After my spring class is over!
Mt. Hood was fun, Astoria is fun, and Crater lake is AMAZING! Also, Crater lake is hard to get camping spots for, but there is a national park right outside it with a ton of campsites!
I'll add that to my travel list. Thanks for the recommendations!
Anytime! Any other florida recommendations? *sorry there is a national forest outside of Crater Lake
There's Busch Gardens in Tampa if you like roller coasters Snorkeling and Scuba Diving of course You can also go kayaking
that is perfect! I'll go do those for sure! I have to head out! Good luck with your classes, your travels, and everything! : ]
You as well!
