Amazon trouble
I tramped through the jungle, tripping and falling in my oversized black boots, using my bamboo stick as a machete. I regretted what I had done, following a jaguar off into the jungle to get pictures; silly of me.
I felt bad and lost, I didn't know how to make a weapon, a shelter, or any kind of boat. I found a furry brown tail under a bunch of ferns, picked I tup and decided to use it as a whip.
Then I heard a lot of noise getting louder and louder until a bunch of dangerous animals burst out of a bush. So I said, "hello, dangerous animals", swinging the tail around above my head, then flung the tail away, relieved.
I climbed up a tree and thought about my time line and how I needed to get back to the city to do a masters degree in biology. I must have fallen asleep because when I woke up I found several Pygmy monkeys using me as a couch. I grabbed one of them and ripped it open, the blood made such a horrible stain that I cannot use that shirt to this day.
Just then I heard my group shouting my name so I ran towards them shouting.
I rushed through the undergrowth, plants brushing against me, feathery leaves full of water shaking about as I ran.
After an hour my legs felt like jelly, so I sat down on a log and kept shouting. I waited and waited and waited and waited...
There was a loud rustling sound and my group burst out of a bush. I told them what had happened, and they told me their side of the story. My group took me back to the lodge and I collapsed on my bed, relieved.

ZI (zombie invasion)
"Brains!" I heard the growl of a zombie and it startled me so much I nearly knocked a chair over! I grabbed my double pistols and shot the zombie outside, killing it.
I figured that my house was not the safest place, so I headed outside just to find that the zombie army was marching down my street. About half of the zombies headed towards me, so I shot 11 of them with the ammo I had left. Then I ran back inside my house and desperately crawled to my bedroom where I found my buckler and light sword.
I realized that I hadn't shut the door and when I turned around there were eleven zombies there waiting for me. I charged down the stairs hitting them until their heads fell off.
I ran outside, checked the coast was clear, then ducked into an alley. I heard the sounds of whimpering victims inside. I accidentally scraped my shield against a piece of flint causing a spark to rise and melt some glass which my clothing soaked up.
I heard the scuffings and scrapings of lost cats and dogs. The "drip drip drip" of a broken water pipe was spooky, it was like the whole of New York was abandoned!
I heard some faint voices from ahead, I broke into a run and I found some police members in black bulletproof suits.
One of them spotted me and said, "there are no more zombies".

Around the world again
The reason I want to have another year of traveling is because I want to go to Japan, Africa, Greece, India and Warwick. There will be new computer games coming out and more time to play them. I want to spend 4 weeks back in Australia to have Christmas and to see my friends again.
I will show my friends my collection of stuff which I found over the year I've been away. For those of you who are reading this that are my friends I've been missing you.

The scrolls of Alebelden
Aidan rushed to his bed, put the scrolls down and hurriedly untied the knots. Aidan eagerly opened up the scrolls to reveal pages of tiny writing. He started to read.
King Brow was a wise powerful and kind man, but he did not use his wisdom to destroy, his power to invade or his kindness to trick. King Brow used everything he had for good.
One day, when King Brow was wandering around the mountains of feast, glory and valour, he found a unicorn with white wings and called it Paegathus in runes. This meant the flying unicorn.
King Brow rode his unicorn all around Meeaar al eamer (the palace place) finding thousands of first born. But his favourite first borns would always be the first born hydra, Paegathus and the first born dragon.
Because all the other firstborn knew this they revolted. There were battles in the sky, land and sea but eventually King Brow and his allies were forced into making a castle out of pure adorite, the strongest stone ever.
King Brow named the city, "Albeden". In Albeden four races developed; dragons, hydras, humans and unicorns. Over time the dragons and the hydras went back to their domains of the sky and the sea.
Other kingdoms started to arrive into existence like Guardland, Snowland and Sandland.
King Brow decided to make alliances with each of these kingdoms to retain peace within the Palace Place.
To defy any evil force in the Palace Place, King Brow trained an elite guard which could defeat anything evil, just nothing good.
And so the Palace Place lived on until the end of time.
Aidan looked up from the scrolls and ran downstairs to tell his parents about the greatest discovery in his life.

Man overboard near Volcano Isle
Chapter One
Kasplash!
The Alexandria crashed into the roaring waves causing me to sway on the deck.
The captain shouted, "Jim! Hold onto something!"
So I jumped onto the rigging. Just in time too because a monster wave crashed into the Alexandria splattering my face with salty sea water and nearly knocking me off my perch.
I was only just holding on with my aching arms so I dropped off and sprinted towards the trap door leading to the cabins. But a monster wave swept me off deck. The last thing I heard was the loud but distant shout of "JIIIIIMMMMMMM!!!"
Chapter Two
Groggy waters
When I woke up I swam to the surface and looked around. Not a ship in sight. So I checked my compass; broken. I swam forward, my now salty brown hair irritating my blue eyes and my face as I swam. I swam for twelve hours until I finally washed up on a hot black beach. I looked about me feeling desperate for food and water. I ran across the beach peering into every little crack or crevasse I could find, but each on had the same black sand.
Then I started to hear some faint shouts from the other side of the island.
"JIM!" they said. I ran towards the shouts, getting closer and closer, until I started to see the ship. I got to the camp and found my crewmates covering me with food, drink and questions like, "Are you OK? Are you thirsty?" and "Are you hungry?".
To all these I answered, "Yes", and ate my fill.
We sailed home with adventures, stories and legends.
