-DAY 1-

Hello, as you must know. My name is Alex, I was riding on a ship (okay! i was actually scuba diving but whatever!) and we hit an iceberg (metal pole) and me and 6 other survivors are on this island, seperated, no food, and all of us never went camping in our lives so we thought we would be dead in the next.. oh lets say... 4 and a half hours.. lets begin my journey of sailing back to the island (or at least find a pay phone or something, ooor if we get signals on our cell phones)

First few minutes of arriving the island....
"Owww! What was that! huh? Where am I? What is that smell?"
And then... I realized...
"Oh noo!!!!!! My.....My......HAIR IS MESSED UP!!!!"
actually, it took me a long time to figure out I was stranded because I thought I was having this odd, island-like dream. As soon as I knew I was on this uncharted island I had to find a way to survive. I was wondering if there were any other survivors other than me. My first instinct was to find some food because I WAS STARVING!!! (I forgot to eat breakfast....) I thought, maybe, i could find fruit, or berries or something..

4 hours later....
"OMGEEE, I FOUND BERRIES AT LAST!! EWWW... HUCKLEBERRIES..."
But I knew, in order to survive, I had to eat them. Even if they were... ugh.. huckleberries.

2 hours after the 4 hours....(so that's basically 6 hours later....)
"I....Need...To...Sleep...soo...freakin....tired...."
I found wood and big rainforest trees. (Can't Believe it. I almost ate toucans I just <3 them so much! I would never eat them. But I was soo hungry..) Some of the leaves fell off so I could try to make a Tent, or at least a temporary shelter to rest in for more ideas. I built the shelter and I used leftover leaves for blankets. 10 minutes before I was going to sleep I thought how I would find other survivors, how I could leave the island, and most of all, how I was going to survive.
