12 Month Diary Part One

In Year 8, we had to write a story, and do heaps of activities to go with it. One was to write a 12 month diary, the stories were about a person stranded on an island and haveing to suvive for two Years, the 12 month diary was to say some of the events that happend.

Here is it.

January:
Well today I arrived there is no one here.
How am I to live in this place, no where to sleep
No place warm. I must find a place to build a hut somewhere near water and food. All I have is my tool box, flints, some cloths, a 3 meter plastic sheet, some blankets, and a 4L bottle. This is not right I can’t spend two years here, I just won’t survive.

February:
Well I have made progress sins we last talked.
I have made 8 huts near water and food. It has been very lonely but it may get better who knows what will happen next. I have been very busy with making the huts that I have forgotten to write. The plastic sheet works wonders, it keeps the hut dry. I found a Knife in the tool box so I use it lots to open coconuts and cut twigs. I did some flax weaving for my bed. Well I have to go! See you soon!

March:
Well I am cold and wet it’s been raining for a week now. I am cuddled up in hut 7 waiting for the storm to stop. I feel so cold and lonely all by my self. Everything is getting wet. How long will it take before I starve I can’t get wet or ill get sick. There is nothing for me to do.

April:
The rain has cleared up. But now it hasn’t rained in five days. The waterfalls will start to dry up and the fruit trees will die. All my belongings have dried thankfully. I have been very busy lots of trees have fallen down and so I have been storing the wood for a fire. But all will be up and running soon.

May:
It is still hot but a lot better than last month. Latterly I have had a visitor in the night and just this morning I found out what it was. A monkey I called him Jack. He has been lots of company for me and we have had lots of fun. He helps me with gathering fruit and veggies, I repay him by giving him a banana. He is very crudely and keeps me warm.

June:
Jack and I have been very busy. We went to the east side of the island and went fishing but we only caught two fish but Jack doesn’t eat fish so two for me. So I’m cooking wile Jack is collecting his dinner. We have a big day tomorrow making a new hut. And we have to supply the water in every hut. Well I have to go see you later.

July:
Well the rain has started again but that’s the last of my problems jack is sick. He might be dieing…if he dose…I ….I might not cope. He is the only company I have on this silly island. It’s not fair he’s only young. I have to go bye.
