Whoo. I'm back! My attitude is adjusted and I have come to realize that I can't help the entire world. I don't have time for that nor the endless resources. Since the last time I posted, many things have changed in my life. I moved out of my family's home into a quiet small town about twenty minutes from my home town. I live in a third floor apartment with a party animal, a cat and two birds. I recently passed my physical exam and registered at a police academy.
I also developed this scary gut feeling of impending doom. After what has happened recently with the BP oil spill, Haiti, and the bloody earthquake in Washington, D.C., things just aren't getting any better.
Seriously. They aren't.
I had a dream so severe about the world coming to an end that I actually woke up crying. I don't cry and I also don't remember any of my dreams.
I spoke to several people about what is going on and they all seem to be on the same mindset I am: Prepare for the worst, hope for the best.
So what exactly is a prepper?
imaprepper.com
I consider myself a prepper now, even if I haven't been doing it for very long. I have become very aware of the possibility of different SHTF (sh*t hitting the fan) scenarios. So instead of taking my chances and being completely unprepared, I have started prepping. I don't have much yet considering I'm extremely poor but I'm working on it!
Site review!
I found this contest today while browsing my favorite prepper forum, preparedsociety.com. I figured I would give a mini site review on top of entering myself in the contest for those seeds. :-)
ModernSurvivalOnline.com is very thorough and very educational to read. I browsed the pdf downloads available and was pleased at the variety of information available. The first link is first aid information ranging from treating an animal bite to more serious complications such as performing CPR. There are also books and videos available in that section.
That was only one pdf section. There is so much more to read! Civil defense, evacuation (or what is also called bugging out for my non- survivalist friends out there.), gardening, food/water storage, and so much more.
On top of the pdf files, Rourke, the site creator, writes about his experiences as a survivalist/prepper. He posts about a variety of current projects and what he had learned from the experiences. He also posts reviews on products and seems to hold contests for free products all the time. Oh yes, and he has an amazon store set up for your browsing pleasure. I plan on going there next. I'm still working on my bug out bags and prepping. I hope I find something of use to add to my supplies and gear.
The contest
