Day 1:
We loaded the ship today with all the materials we'll
need.  I've included a list in the back of my journal.
I noticed that one of my men is cross-eyed and talks
to himself.  He may be a spy.  I have to watch him.
There wasn't enough food for the number of men we had
so we went and pillaged our village to get more.  We
would've just asked, but that takes to long.  We set
sail when the sun was hugging the west sky.  I am
going to sleep now.  I have a long journey ahead of
me.

Day 2:
Woke up this morning to the sound of the cross-eyed
man crowing like a chicken.  I wonder what his problem
is.  Breakfast was good.  There were many different
entrees to enjoy.  Poggins, the chef, had made an
excellent meal.  We gave him a pat on the back.  Much
to my dismay, one of my men had a hook on his hand
and, when patting Poggins, sliced the poor chef clean
in half.  All the men got angry with the hook man,
Patihhi, and decided to make him jump from the topsail
into the ocean.  The ocean wasn't very nice to him
either.  As soon as he hit the water a giant sea
creature devoured him.  It was a sight to see let me
tell you.  That's enough about death though.  I want
to talk about my long journey.  Today we started our
journey around the big rock.  As we looked over the
port side, we saw many beautiful plants and trees.  Oh
it was more colorful than that the water when Patihhi
got ate.  We saw a monkey who had fangs like that of
the undead walker.  The monkey leapt at me, but I
dodged his attack.  The giant ape then seemed to
disappear into the mist.  I grow weary of this day.
After supper I will read my issue of Maxim and then go
to bed.

Day 3:
The strangest thing happened this morning.  A crewman
came into my room and woke me up.  He was complaining
of pain.  I told him to take some Advil.  He then
yelled some foreign language and died right there.
That fool bled on my favorite 25-cent romance novel.
He had the oddest mark on his stomach.  It looked as
if a vampire had bit him then ate inside his liver and
jumped out.  Hmmm, I sure am going to miss that novel.
I need breakfast. 
Day 3 After Breakfast:
What a tasty meal that was.  The
new chef is odd though.  He wears metal clothing.  He
says it is for safety, but if he fell in the water
he'd drown for sure.  He's a crazy one that new chef.
I studied the map today.  It seems as if my journey
won't be as long as I had expected.  Good thing too.
That was the last of the food.  I think that 1800
pound behemoth of a chef ate it all.  Oh well.  Chin
up.  It will all look better tomorrow.
