Boy Stuck on Island
Interview with Phillp
WT: Is it weird being interveiwed?
P: No not really but I like how this place is so giant!
WT: Are you nervus?
P: A little bit.
WT: So Phillip how long have you been on the island?
P: It was about 9 to 10 months, but it felt like two years.
WT: How did you get on the island?
P: The Germans torpedoed the boat I was on. All I remember after that was waking up next to a black man.
WT: Tell me more about this black man.
P: Well his name is Timothy. At first I thought he was a old mean black man, but after being with him for a year I realized that I would not be alive if it wasn't for him.
WT: Where is he now?
P: He had died in a horrible storm. If it wasn't for him I would have died too.
WT: It seems that you were very close to him.
P: Yes.
WT: Was hard doing all of this blind?
P: At first I thought that I couldn't do anything but then Timothy helped make me understand that even blind I can accomplish anything.
WT: If you went back and changed any of this what would it be?
P: I would have me die instead of timothy.
WT: Wow you must love this person!
P: He was my best freind.
