If you were stranded on a lonely beach, what are the five things you would need to survive?
I'd bring a high-definition digital camera so that I could record my feelings and experiences, for example, where I found food. I'd also bring a 32-gigabyte memory card and a solar-powered battery charger so I wouldn't have to worry about using up memory or running out of power. Next, I'd need a water bottle with a filter so I could drink sea water. Lastly, I'd bring a box of matches to light a fire for cooking or call for help.

I'd bring a bathtub, as I have to shower and wash my hair daily. My Chinese history books would be important, as I won't pass my test if I don't study properly. I'd also like to have my cellphone; the sense of loneliness would be too much if I couldn't call anyone. I'd bring my computer, since I am a Facebook fan. Most importantly, I'd want my mum with me. Without her, I'm not sure if I could find food or pull myself together to look for a way out.

I'd bring a fire starter kit. It would be useful for starting a fire for cooking and keeping me warm at night. Next I'd bring a knife, which I could use to slice fruits, cut up raw fish or protect myself from anything unusual that might attack me. The third item would be soap - I don't want to be stranded and stinky. Fourth would be a pillow for comfy sleep. Lastly, I'd bring a buddy - someone who can keep me company. I'd make the most of the time there to appreciate nature.

First, I'd bring my family. Family comes first on my agenda for everything I do. I wouldn't mind being stranded on a lonely beach as long as my family was there with me. Then, I'd want my best friend - she would keep me occupied. Thirdly, drinking water - that's definitely essential to staying alive on the beach. Fourth would be an iPod. I'd need entertainment, so that would provide music. Finally I'd bring a phone to inform people out there that I'm stranded on a lonely beach!

I wish I had brought my own bed simply because I can't fall asleep on soft sand or hard rocks. Second, I need loads of books. I could read them to kill time. After reading them, I could burn them to make a fire. Also, a sunblock is a must because I don't want to get sun-tanned or even sun-burnt. The UV rays are harmful to my skin. What about food? Some seeds would be necessary because plants could grow from these seeds. Last but certainly not least, it’s FAITH. I definitely need it to feel hopeful that I would be rescued one day.
