The sand was warm, welcoming and soft. It felt as if i was sleeping on a bed of clouds. It felt marveolus to finally touch land after three days at sea. We were starving, tired, and winded out. All three of us draged our tierd bodies further onto the land and collapsed again. Later we moaned until we awoke. We practically spit sand out of our mouths and after sleeping in the sun for the whole day we awoke when t got dark. The best part was sunset, when the sun rays poked my skin and the gentle, cool wind wiped my skin. Was the best massage I have ever had before. I pulled everyone up and gave them jobs.
Violet: Tents (She could build a house in a minute.)
Justin: Wood for fire (He was a man and men do the dirty work.)
And me: Food Meat, (vegetables, berries and stuff like that.)
Violet ran into the forest to get her suplies.I never knew how outdoorsy she was. Being raised in first class manner, so it was amazing to see her charge into the forest like she was going into battle. She used bark. jungle leaves, vines, rocks, grass and mud for the tents. One tent for her, one for Justin and one for me. Bricks were put as walls.Mud filled the cracks, leaves made the door and mud with grass and leaves made the roof. A bed of leaves, grass and sticks. The last thing she built was one bathroom, a little away from our tents was a big hole for any business we had to take care of.
Justin used a rock, vines and a big stick to create an axe and chop logs for fire. I never went to survival class i was a city rich girl so was my sister and all of this made it hard to survive outside i n the wild. reasserted and read books on how to live in the wild. But a book can never prepare you for what will happen, no mater how manny books you read they will never prepare you for the fear the hatred and the loneliness of being away from home. But books did tell me how to pick the right berry, the color. the shape and the growth place. While i picked berries i had time to set up a chicken trap, It was a vine hung over a tree with a loop on the bottom. The way it worked was once the animal stepped into the gigantic loop to eat the berries the loop would tighten around its leg and snap it into the air. Wile building my invention I snacked on the berries they were the juiciest and most delicious berries i ever tasted in my entire life wich was a shock sence our private chef gave my family and i the rare juicy gunja berries only grown in the malay swamp once every ten years.
The trap layed empty for hours when night came i gave up and aranged a new plan. I picked some berries in my sun hat, used a stick to catch fish and got water to drink. The fire was warm and comforting
