My grandfather always used to tell me that if you want to succeed in life, you have to work hard. This was clear when we got here on this island in Myanmar. The climate is hot, and there are many hazards here such as when the sea rises, the beach becomes dangerous. We were sent here as part of our training. They said if we don’t go, we won’t pass the course. Each day we have to find water and food. Sometimes when we search we find dangerous animals, and we even found a bomb from WW2. There is a danger from pirates too. If we hide from the pirates, we might be ok. I thought that if the weather is good, I’ll be able to make a fire to cook some food, but making a fire is very difficult with the things we have. If there is no wind tomorrow, we might hear the sound of crocodiles.
