258. TEN things you'd like to have happen by next year.
1. I’d like the world to return to the way it was. Wishful thinking I know but didn’t say it had to be things that could actually happen.
2. For some brainiac to find a cure for those who get infected.
3. I’d like all the zombies to drop dead. I mean really be dead, not what they are now.
4. I’d like to find more survivors. There’s gotta be more out there, right?
5. It would be nice to find somewhere safe to live. I’m getting’ sick of bein’ on the run all the time.
6. Oh, you know what I’d really like? To find out why the hell all this happened in the first place. Something had to make the walkers.
7. I need to get better at killin’ the walkers. I’ve had too many close calls already.
8. It’d be great if I could a safe source of supplies rather than havin’ to scavenge in the city. I probably wouldn’t have had so many close calls if that were the case.
9. Have sex. I know, I know. Pathetic, right? But the world’s gone to shit and it’d be nice to be with someone at least once before it all ends, you know?
10. I’d like to still be a breathin’ thinkin’ human and not a damn walker.
264. TEN new fears you haven't acknowledged before.
1. I was never afraid of dead people before. You know how some people get creeped out by corpses? Yeah, that never use to be me but now I’m terrified of them. I’m afraid they’re gonna get back up.
2. Being eaten alive is a new one. I never had to worry ‘bout that before now.
3. I’m afraid to sleep. I can’t help thinkin’ that if I go to sleep I might not wake up. ‘Course, can’t go without sleep forever either.
4. Gotta admit, I’m as scared of the livin’ almost as much as I’m scared of the dead now. I’ve seen a few other survivors do some nasty things in the city.
5. Atlanta’s my hometown and I never thought I’d be scared of being here. The place is overrun with walkers though and it’s just not safe anymore.
6. As much I know I need to leave the city, I’m scared of doing it. What if it’s worse outside the city?
7. Starving to death. I’ve been lucky so far with findin’ food but knowin’ that it’s possible is scary.
8. I’m afraid I might kill myself. I use to have somethin’ worth livin’ for and now I’ve got a damn thing. A lot of people have from what I’ve seen and honestly, it’s a tempting thought sometimes. That scares the shit outta me.
9. I’m afraid I might kill someone else. This days the first instinct is to shoot first or attack first and ask questions later. That’s alright if the person’s already dead but one of these days I’m afraid I’m gonna accidentally kill someone who ain’t dead.
10. Becoming one of the walkers is a new fear. I know I wouldn’t know what I was and I wouldn’t be me anymore but the thought of being bitten still scares me.
262. TEN words that mean something.
1. Survival.
2. Zombie.
3. Food.
4. Weapon.
5. Alone.
6. Mother.
7. Apocalypse.
8. Death.
9. Strength.
10. Hope.
