Assuming I'm at home when it starts.

Part 1: The panic. I'll wait out the first 3 days in my house, this is what I'll do right at the beginning.

A) Barricades: My door is located in a narrow hallway, so I'll simply put my fridge in front of it as an easy and quick barricade, it's pretty heavy on it's own but to be safe I'll stash it with books for added weight (I have lots of books). I'll keep the food that stays good for the next 3 days (I'll get to why soon) and throw out the rest. My windows aren't a problem, I live one floor up (about 10-12 foot off the ground), I'll close all the blinds so my flat doesn't attract any attention, I have double glazed windows so it's pretty sound proof, but I'll keep quiet just in case.

B) Food and water: Fill my bathtub and all bottles I have with water before it shuts off, this gives me a good supply for 3 days and more. As for food, I've always got a good supply of canned/dry food lying around, and I've got the food in the fridge that doesn't go off for 3 days.

C) The wait: I'll wait out the original panic, if the military/government takes care of it after 3 days, then great, I'm saved. If not, I'll prepare for part 2.

Part 2: Survival pack, Meeting with friends and finding a place to stay.

A) Preperation: The panic is over, my supplies are running low and I need to meetup with my friend (he's part of my plan, we've discussed it). This first thing I do is get put on some bite-proof, long-lasting clothes. This includes jeans, a jumper, a jean jacket (or any other strong material) etc. Then I set up my bag, I'll put three days worth of food and water inside, 2 extra pairs of socks and undies, a survival knife, a torch, about 10 AA batteries, 2 boxes of matches, a small mirror (for signaling) and a basic first aid kit. I have all this stuff in my house at all times. In my hand I'll have my weapon(s), primary is a hammer, secondary is a kitchen knife, I know they aren't the greatest weapons, but it's the best I got, I'll avoid combat for as long as I can. I keep the keys to my house, I can go back there for a change of clothes and for emergency shelter, I'll also need stay there for a few more days (I'll explain why in B).

B) Getting out: First thing I do is look outside, if there is loads of clutter and destruction on the street, I'll go by foot, if not, I'll take my bike. The meeting place with my friend is my school gate, I can walk there in 15 minutes, jog there in 5, so getting there is easy. We've agreed to meet there every day at 2PM after the first 3 days of panic, I'll climb the school gate and wait for him inside there until 4PM, then go home before dark. If he doesn't show up in 3 days, I assume he's dead or un-dead, I'm on my own. 3 days is the limit as by then all my food and water will be running out, and I'll need to move on.

 

 

 

I'll finish part 2 and write part 3 if anyone wants me to, just let me know. Don't want to write an essay and have no one give a shit.

 I've thought about this quite a lot ;)


Do part 3, but do it in a new post so people will see!
