I quietly tiptoe through the forest, as night begins to fall. Knowing from experience, by the time it's this dark, I should probably be finding a place to sleep.

I look around, from side to side, before spotting a nice tree, that's easy to get up into, but not too easy.

I walk over to the tree, before grabbing a branch, and hoisting myself up. I climb a bit higher, before hanging my backpack on a branch, and opening one of the smaller side pockets. From it, I grab a belt.

I then lay down on a thick tree branch, and secure myself to it with the belt.

Because of the way that I'm laying, my backpack is above me, so I open another pocket and get out my journal and pen. This was one of the ways I would stay sane, just writing down everything that happened every single day.

I jot down my thoughts, making sure to include as much as possible in as little space as possible.

After I was done, I put my journal and pen back into my backpack, and tried to get comfortable.

Even though the branch is unbelievably rough, and little sticks were digging into my back, I felt myself drifting slowly off to sleep....

End of chapter.

I'm sorry this was short, it was only 212 words.... I'm ashamed
