The Diary of Frodo Baggins:
Day One:
Hullo! My name is Frodo! And welcome to my diary! A few hours ago, some really tall guy dropped me off on an island. Sam, Pippin, Merry, and Bilbo are here too. The guy told us to write down whatever happens on this island. So, let's get started………… well, nothing much has happened yet. We're all just kind of exploring right now. Pippin said he was hungry, not like it's a surprise or anything that he is. I think we will send Bilbo out to look for food and water and other things. Sam and I are sitting together, talking about what's ahead for us. We will have to put up with Merry and Pippin's stupidity. Oh boy, can't wait.
Day Six:
Hello again! Well, Bilbo went out for food. He found something called Kiwi. It's a fruit! He found a banana too. Pippin ate them all though. So Bilbo went out to look for more again. I hope he comes back with something. I've been eating a lot of wood. It's starting to actually taste good too, that's how crazy this bloody place is. The sand is hot on my feet. I stand in the water a lot to cool them off. Sam copied off of me. But he didn't understand why I was doing it. Merry said he'd go exploring. I hope he finds something better to stay in than outside. It gets pretty cold at night. And those dumb crickets chirping drives me crazy!
Day Eleven:
Hey! Guess what? Merry found a little cave for all five of us to fit in yesterday! It's pretty cozy. Just dark, and a little damp. But there's some water in here. And Bilbo found lots of kiwi and banana trees. We had to hide the food from Pippin. He kept eating everything. I'll tell you where we hid it too! It's in a secret hole I carved out of the cave last night. It's under my pillow so Pippin can't see it. I just hope he doesn't read this and find out… oh man… maybe I should erase that… no, he wouldn't do that… well, he might.
Day Sixteen:
Hey! Everything is going great here! It's not so bad! Sam and I tried fishing. Sam caught some coral. Well, he did better than me, I got a stick. Wow, good old yummy sticks. Speaking of yummy, I'm not eating wood anymore. But that kiwi and banana is getting pretty boring now. Maybe later I'll go look for some more food. Yesterday Merry and Pippin put on a magic show. You know what they called it? "Watch Food Disappear" by Merry and Pippin. Wonder how they performed that… hmm… Bilbo is writing a new book. I think he said he'd call it "There and Stuck There Again for Thirty Days". It doesn't make sense really. Oh well, off for some more food.
Day Twenty four:
Sorry I haven't updated in a week. I found some more food! Coconuts! They're all right. Better than bananas and kiwi right now. Sam got better at fishing. He got a good-sized fish for a hobbit. Bilbo tried to cook it. I don't think he finished cooking it. He got sick for 2 days. The cave is holding out. We're still hiding food from Pippin. Merry found out about the spot. But promised he wouldn't tell Pippin. Well, with only six days left, let's hope so. He only found out yesterday… well that's about it! Bye!
Day Thirty:
Yay! We get off today! I can't wait to go back home to Bag End! I miss the Shire! Oh… wait, I can't go back home! I forgot… the quest. Well, I'm glad Sauron and Saruman agreed for a thirty-day pause on all that business so I could do this. It was nice of them. I could make a fruit basket for them with the remaining fruit we have left! Yeah! Good idea! In fact, I think I'll go start weaving a basket right now!
