Coming to again I started to panic, I wondered where I was, then the cold brought me back to reality, I was still in the water. I wondered how long I could survive in this water, something caught my eye, it was one of those things they pack the suitcases in before they go on the plane, if only I could reach it and get inside I would be out of the water, I gathered what strength I had left and swam towards it.<br/><br/>Managing to climb inside I dropped down and laid on my back looking up at the sky, it seems like I was laying there for hours, I was so thirsty, but I knew that I couldn't drink sea water, I wondered just how long I had been in the water? It couldn't have been more than a few hours, "c'mon," I siad aloud, "stop feeling sorry for yourself and take a look around."<br/><br/>Lifting myself up and making sure I didn't capsize this makeshift boat, I looked over the rim of this aluminium coffin, I looked west, nothing but sea, south, the same, east, more water, then I heard a noise, a seagull, seagulls mean land, looking  north, there it was, I could see land, yes it was land, oh my God I was saved. I started to paddle with my hands, but I noticed I was heading that way anyway, I was caught in a strong current, I looked towards the sun it was low in the sky, I thought to myself, "it's going to be dark soon, so I will conserve my strength and let the current take me."
