Bonanza City Means Everything

So, I will post my Kid Nation story, but with quite a few rule changes and modifications along the way. My character is Kyle, 15.

Day 1:

As I was sitting in the school bus, obviously wondering why in the world I'm on a Reality TV show for? I was sitting next to Alex. He was looking at his family photo this whole time. I asked him, what's your favorite subject in school? "Geography", he said. I responded with, "That is interesting; I'm a math genius myself!" After 1 hour or so taking trips around some dirt roads, obviously we are going to be famous or infamous some day; the bus finally stops.

When we got off the bus, I saw an adult man in the distance. After everybody was off with their stuff on their backs, he then spoke, "Hi, my name is John, nice to meet you, so how's everybody feeling"? I responded with "Okay, but a little scared." he then said, "say goodbye to that school bus, and hello to the middle of nowhere!" Everybody was then speechless as the school bus behind us left! As the host keeps babbling about our objective for the next 40 days, I noticed that Cody was desperate to talk to the host, but too bad the host didn't let him. Then, he said "that there are 5 leaders, and they were chosen while factoring in ethnic diversity and age variety". As soon as he said it, a helicopter flew in and landed behind us: Spreading dust all over our hair and faces, I was covering my whole face and so did everybody else.

When the dust finally settled, it took at least a couple minutes for that to happen! The five leaders were in front of us, they are: Kelsey, Guylan, Migle, Markelle, and Mike.

I thought, "Okay, hopefully they are good leaders." Then the host told us to start the wagon trail, because it's going to be a long hike. He then warned, "The next 40 days are tough, it's rough . . . but if you are not up to it . . . you can give up and quit."

Then Mike officially, try to pump us up, by saying the famous "are you ready?" And we were shouting out to the top of our lungs, and then the host said "GO!"

As we were debating about the best way to put our backpacks on the wagons, the council stayed with the host, and then the goats ran away from us. Thank goodness, Greg stepped up and gathered all of the goats before they got too far into the middle of the desert. I was pulling one of the wagons with Alex and Brett.

But about a third of the way through the wagon trail, Mike was being a bitch, towards Greg, the 2nd oldest person on the show. I'm older than him by 2 months. He then tried to pull his wagon all by himself but can't. So, Greg decided to take back control of the wagon, and then we continued on

It was hard to keep the wagons on the road and occasionally things will fall off from the wagon that happened to a few of them along the way. But about three-quarters of the way through, DK was injured, but thankfully it was just a minor leg cramp. As we got closer to Bonanza city, DK was moving around with an obvious limp.

When we got there, it was indeed a mess, they forced us to clean up the bunkhouses, find a source of water and cook dinner all by ourselves. I was on constant lookout for people that I can meet and trying to build an alliance when it's time to go choose our rooms for the night.

Meanwhile, sunset came, and still no dinner is served. Then, Sophia and Kelsey told us that it should be done in 15 minutes. When it finally came time to eat our first meal, it was mushy but it was okay. Alex, Brett and I fell to sleep as soon as we were done eating, knowing that every minute of sleep is essential.

I guess that host was right it's going to seem like an eternity!
