Today I have decided to share with the blogging community a personal philosophy of mine, that is, "Safety First". Now, you have probably heard this little saying before but I am going to write about how these two words can be applied to everything from international travel to guarding your heart. Here are AA (Amanda Approved) Safety Tips. ENJOY!
Daily Life:
- when dressing for the day, be conscious of dangers and or annoyances that might occur. For example, I wear shoes that I can run in or throw off in case of an emergency ie running from stalkers or earthquakes
- make sure you eat breakfast because who knows what will happen, you might not eat again!
Relationships:
- Background checks, police reports etc. THESE ARE VERY IMPORTANT. This is crucial when the man you are dating drives a different luxury car, with no license plates, every day that you see him.
- If you want to meet a random stranger at least go to place that is reputable. For example, if choosing a grocery store to flirt at, pick Bristol Farms over Ralphs. However, it is advised NOT to date a random stranger but an AA (Amanda Approved) candidate.
- First glance is key, make sure he meets all requirements before speaking, otherwise you are doomed to a dull conversation.
- Don't be afraid to get NOSY, check out his relationship history! The way to do this is to google his name and facebook stalk, not to mention casually bringing up his name among mutual friends. Then, gage their reactions to his name and if satisfied proceed, otherwise, run away in the shoes you wore this morning for such purposes.
Travel:
- When boarding a plane, ask the pilot how the turbulance will be and make sure he describes every detail of the entire flight to you personally. Also use this golden opportunity to make sure he is sober and capable. Otherwise RUN.
- When checking in for a flight, be sure to choose the seat closest to the wing, this is the most stable part of the plane.
- Sit next to a friendly stranger (who looks capable). I prefer ex-Marines or current members of the United States Army. Then you can rest assured that in an emergency YOU will be saved.
- Make sure to always gage your surroundings and if you see any strange guys are checking you out, that's not a potential love interest, that's a rapist that's going to kill you!
Like the boy scouts know, preparation is essential for survival. Ciao!
