I thought it would be fun to have Ty and I make
a list to fit a topic (that I choose, of course,) once a week. For this first
week, I picked: What would you need to survive on a deserted island? Here are
our lists:
Ty
- Machete
- Fishing tackle.
- A Pot that can boil water
- a Tarp
- Spool of rope or twine
- matches
- Compass…. . . to find my way, but also to use as a reflective device to signal ships.
- bow and arrow. . . I can use it to hunt and protect myself
- a backpack for collecting food and firewood.
- A change of clothes.
And here is my list:
1.
Ty. Mainly because I love him, and I cannot imagine why I
would be in the position to be stranded on a deserted island without him. But
he would also be a guaranteed hunter/gatherer/fisher, shelter builder, bug
squisher, fire builder, and scary animal keeper awayer.
- My Kindle Fire.
With an unlimited battery supply. And wifi. Deserted islands have
wifi, right?
- Sunscreen.
Because I’m hoping that if I were stuck on a deserted island, it would be
a warm and sunny one. I would love the tan, but definitely don’t wanna be
getting burned and end up turning into “Leather Woman.”.
- My iPod. Again
with unlimited battery…. . . and maybe an iHome to play it on. That only
counts as one item, right?
- Soap. If Ty’s
gonna be out there on the deserted island with me, I gotta keep myself
smelling fresh, right? (He’ll probably definitely need some too. . .
hopefully it’s a humongous bar.)
- Cute clothes,
shoes, and jewelry. Duh. .
- Macaroni and
cheese. Since I wouldn’t eat pretty much anything Ty would be hunting and
gathering (like bugs, mice, jellyfish, and whatnot) I would need my
favorite food to nourish my body. Which I guess means that I would need
milk and butter too. Which means that I would need a cooler. Again, that
all counts as one item, right?
- A
refridgerator. . . preferably a full-size one. It’ll keep my milk and
butter cool, and will provide me with a place to crawl inside of when I
get hot. . .because I’m not very friendly when I get too hot.
- My pillow. I’m
not about to sleep with my head on the ground. I don’t need roaches
crawling in my hair.
- And lastly, my
phone. . . .with cell service of course. Because I’m pretty sure that
about 15 minutes of being stranded on a deserted island with me, Ty would
need to call someone to come and rescue us before he killed me.
What would you “need” if you were stranded on a
deserted island?
