February 12th

I've found it at last! This is the place I've been looking for--the island of my dreams! It's beautiful, and it has everything I need: food, fresh water, and peace. The lagoon is full of fish. There are coconut palms and wild bananas. There's a nice little lake among the hills. And no one lives on any of the islands around here. February 14th

I've decided to stay here. I'm tired of traveling. I get seasick all the time. And I don't really want to get back to civilization. I want to get away from it all--to get back to nature. I want to live the simple life--the kind of life that Bill's forefathers used to live, without metal and machines and money. If they could live like that, so can I. I'm sure I'm as clever as they were! February 17th

In a few minutes I'm going to go back to the boat. I'm going to fetch the things that Bill gave me. I'll bring them back here. I'll sail the boat out to sea. I'll point it towards South America. Then I'll jump off and swim back here. If anyone finds the boat, they'll think I fell into the water by accident.

So here I am--completely alone on my dream island. Now I'll be able to do what I've always wanted to do: to get to know myself. Because I've never been really sure who I am. I've played too many parts in my life--too many roles in films, and in real life, too. Now I have the chance to discover the real Buck Westwood. All my life he's been sleeping somewhere deep inside me---dreaming his \to wake up, Buck. Be yourself at last! June 2nd

There was another storm today. It rained hard, and the wind blew away part of the roof. Everything in the house got wet. It's not a very strong house. I'm not very good at building houses out of trees and grass and leaves.

There's nothing to eat except coconuts and raw fish. I'm tired of coconuts, and I can't cook the fish because the fire's gone out. I wish I had some dry wood and some matches. June l0th

I don't feel very well. There isn't enough clean water on this island, and there are too many insects. The house is full of ants and flies. They're driving me mad! I wish I had something to kill them with!

June 15th

Oh dear! I've only been on this island for a few months, but it feels

18

like years already. There's nobody to talk to, and nothing to read. I wish I could get away from here. But how? I've been trying to build a boat, but I need some modem tools. I wish I had a good axe, a saw, a hammer and some nails.

June 16th

I must send a message for help. But how? That's the problem! I wish I had a radio.
