THE MODERN CAVEMAN IN CAPADOCIA by Onur KAFALI.



Its me again. This time I'm not doing so good. I woke up in a pretty bad mood this morning. I've been n this deserted, tropical island for weeks, even months now!!!!! We have not been rescued and I'm starting to get a feeling we never will. I am learning a lot about the other people here. Some have changed a lot!!! I don't know if their homesick, lonely, starving, or just going through a rough time out here on the island. I'm starting to get depressed now. We are still working as a team, but we are loosing energy and faith in each other. I also feel like I'm being watched wherever I go. It is really really starting to creep me out. I asked a couple other people if the feel the same way, but they just told me that I'm hallucinating. I don't know what to do anymore. It feels like there is someone or something out there in the forest waiting to kill all of us!!!!! I just hope we get rescued before that happens.
Being stranded on this island has made me miss everything that I had at home. I miss my friends and my family. I miss staying in my own house and sleeping in my own bed. Their is one thing that I miss most of all though. I miss my pink volleyball. I love playing volleyball and when I'm bored, or sad, or just need some alone time I would go outside and play volleyball. I have played volleyball through tough times before. I leave all of my frustration on the court. I wish I had my volleyball with me right now!!!!!!!!!

Hey!!!! Its me again!!!!! We are still working great as a team. We have a ton of fruit now!!!! Its delicious! We have a steady fire now, but earlier we had a little problem. Our fire got out of hand and burned a part of our island. Everyone was alright though, thank goodness. I am having a blast with everyone on this island. We are playing a lot of games to keep busy. The majority of the people like playing "capture the flag" and "hide and go seek". We are coming up with some new games too.

I was on my way to have a wonderful vacation in paradise and all of a sudden the pilot said our plane was going to crash!!!!! I can't believe I survived the crash. There are no adults because the pilot died during the crash. There is only me and my classmates on this tropical island. I'll admit, this is a beautiful island, but I wish it didn't happen like this. We have no food, no water, and absolutely no extra clothes!!!!!!!! We are still working on building a shelter and a fire. Actually, the guys are working on them right now as I am writing to you. We are working on fishing too, but all we have is sticks to use as spears to stab the fish, but every time you get near them they swim away. We are starving and need to eat soon!!!! I've also heard some animals in the jungle so maybe we can eat them too. Luckily most of us on this island have gone camping before, so our survival is going good so far. The water is cool but not cold so it feels good most of the time, but it is only the ocean. The weather is very nice. It is warm but a little humid. We are surrounded and covered by trees so staying cool is not a problem right now. So, we have more time to work on other more important things. Well I better go look for some fruit in all of these trees so we don't starve. Ill write again soon.
