This new life is for you
As Melanie looked at the ceiling, she took a deep breath in. She was going to the nearest village today and this was the only thing she was looking forward to. Mel was the designated first aider of the camp. Although she was only a nursing student when the apocalypse started, she had the most medical experience in their camp. Mel’s dad was the leader. He tried to give her one day of respite a week now the majority of the zombies had died off due to the winter that had hit. This was a relief to survivors but the threat was still real. The camp was simple yet effective. The sleeping quarters had canvas sides and wooden roofs with camp beds in and solar lamps hanging from sticks. Each house had trinkets from the residents previous lives which added a strange homely effect to the dull rooms. Most families stayed together but some teenagers had outgrown their family living arrangements. Mel, although 27, chose to stay with her dad, Keith. Her mother was killed in the beginning of the catastrophe as she was terminally ill and bed ridden. Kim was a caring woman and dedicated nurse, which is where Melanie found her own passion for nursing. Kim, whose life was withering away in front of her family's eyes, lit up the room and was the love of her father’s life. In a twisted way, Melanie liked thinking that she was no longer in pain. Hugo, or Hugs, had died protecting her. This was Hugs all over, selfless. He was barricading the doors and windows when he lost the battle and the house became overrun. He was a strapping 18-year-old who was an avid rugby player. Melanie often thought that his wild sense of humour would have been an amazing attribute in their new life. Melanie woke up from her day dream. She was sitting on her camp bed when Keith opened the entrance curtain.

How I Became a Successful Business Woman
I left school at 15 with some GCSE’s but being dyslexic I was told I probably wouldn’t amount to much anyway so why bother. I got a job and I started at college for three years, which I did both full-time. I did hair and beauty for the first year and art and design for the last two. I wanted to become a fashion designer that was my calling in life, my room was always piled high with art books and designs, I was always making things and I just never knew what to do with them. I did all this while I became a manager at my job.
