Hey, my name is Brian Robeson and I am 13 years old. I live in New York so I guess that makes me an American right? Okay so my holiday didn’t turn out as I’d hoped. My parents got divorced, I crash-landed in the Canadian wilderness with a dead pilot and some crazy animals as my only company! I didn’t ask for all this to happen but I guess I don’t have any good luck! Ok Ok so I just got back 12 hours ago and my life is practically chaos! When I got home my mom was crying and so was my dad and Terry was jumping up and down.
Wait a minute; you don’t know who Terry is. Terry is my best friend. We do everything together, from watching TV to taking
...out the garbage! Ok that’s not really true but yeah we’re best friends. And just after my happy reunion, my mom blurted out that she was getting married to the blonde guy who brought the divorce. My life has gone upside down but let’s get this show on the road. You people really wanna know how I survived? Ok I’ll tell ya.
Later on I decided to build my own little shelter since I didn’t really have anywhere to sleep. I called it home. Another few days passed and I had a dream about my dad and Terry. They were trying to tell me how to make fire with my hatchet. When I woke up I made the fire with my hatchet and a soft but strong piece of long wood. Then came the best meat day
and best fish days and best arrow days and best berry days. Yeah, even though I ate an amazing amount of gut berries and turtle eggs I still survived.
Hey, before I start don’t feel bad when your parents get divorced cos it’s just fate. You just need to come to terms with it and your parents. Ooops! I forgot. Back on the track!! It was a Sunday morning when my mom gave me the Hatchet. I was leaving to go to my dad’s for the summer. I boarded the plane and we took off. It was only me and the pilot in the Cessna so there wasn’t much to do. I thought about the divorce and as soon as I did the Secret popped up and the words pierced me through my heart.
All of a sudden, the pilot what was his name? Oh Jim or Jake, that’s right Jim or Jake started shouting and saying that his chest was coming apart and then I realised Jim or Jake was having a heart attack. And then just like that (do a click) he died. Pretty sad I know but there was only one thing I knew that was freaking me out. I was in a plane with a dead pilot and I was probably going to die! Ok calm down I told myself. I am an American boy and I can live! I told myself. And guess what I did! Even though I crashed in the lake in the middle of the woods and nearly got bitten to death by mosquito’s, I lived my first week all alone! Isn’t that awesome?
justify">During my survival in the wilderness all alone, I learnt a lot from my mistakes like when I didn’t protect my food, when I didn’t co-operate with all the wildlife, when I was about to commit suicide. They were all mistakes and big mistakes at that. I’ll tell you guys how I felt when one of the rescue planes didn’t see me. Before I do I have one question to ask everyone. How would you feel if something really bad happened in your life? How would you handle it if your parents got divorced or your parents died or just something bad that completely ruined your life? You can’t handle anything like that cos I mean come on we’re still kids right? Don’t you feel like committing suicide? And don’t act innocent cos you gotta admit it. That’s exactly how I felt. I felt heartbroken. It was like the earth was going to swallow me right there. That’s how I felt when the plane passed me without noticing. Anyway forget all the sad stuff.
Another few months passed and I settled in with nature. One day while I was eating my fish a plane suddenly crashed into the lake. I dived in hoping to escape. Instead I found a survival pack. Now before I found it I was chased and bullied by a moose-cow animal. I finally escaped and when I did and opened the pack I could not believe it, riches and treasures. Unbelievable treasures were in that pack. I couldn’t believe it! There was soo much food in there that I thought I was in heaven. After a while I came across
a small emergency transmitter. I turned the switch on and off but there was no reception. So instead I cooked myself a small feast in the little steel pots that I got in the pack.
 As soon as the orange juice was finished and I had my peach whip ready, another rescue plane dropped beside me and out came a man dressed completely in black. I couldn’t believe it! It was all over! I was finally going home I thought. The pilot came over and was shocked when he saw me! He said that my parents quit looking for me 2 months ago and I was almost forgotten. As he was saying this he was eyeing my stew and peach whip soo much that I finally asked if he wanted some. He said yes and we both ate. That very same night we took off and landed in NY in 2 hours!
That was my journey. I was really happy when I got home but I was sad for 2 reasons. One was because my mom was getting married again and leaving my dad forever and the other because I had to catch up on all the school work I missed! Pretty sad but that’s life! Anyway I gotta go. My teacher gets pretty cranky when I take too long with my fans! I mean teachers are supposed to teach not get angry at ya right? Oops. Your teacher’s right there! Ha Ha! Hey, and before I go I just have one last thing to tell you. If you ever crashland in the woods, not that you ever will, but if you do,
remember to always think positive and never give up no matter what happens! Well gotta go and I hope you liked my story!
