I started a book this week and the main character has just been stranded on an island which made me think what if I was stranded on an island. This is a pretty big fear of mine even though it’s not very likely that its going to happen but I know I would be scared but my survival instinct would kick in. Since the main character was ship wrecked he managed to get two things from the ship that won’t really help him get off the island but will help him survive so I’m also going to put myself in that situation.

The materials I hope I would have are a knife and any type of fabric. I would first find food or depending on where I’m shipwrecked some coconuts because not only can I drink the water but I can also eat the coconut meat. It would probably be getting dark soon so I would try and build a shelter using the knife to help get some wood and the fabric to make a tarp like cover. Then I would make a fire because the chances are I’m going to be really cold. The next day I would try to do as much stuff as I could during the day like fishing, advancing my shelter and finding more wood for the fire. I don’t know if I would be this successful at surviving but I sure hope so.
