I empty out the wheelbarrow in front of Devin. We've been working together for half a week now, and he still has barely said three words to me. I don't like agreeing with Alex, but Devin definitely is awful. I'm not surprised he doesn't have any friends.

Sometimes I worry that he has scowled so much that the frown on his face is stuck there. It would explain why he always seems to be in such a sour mood. Or maybe it's the smell of the clothes getting to him.

I fill up a bucket with the wet clothing Devin has left on the beach. Time to go hang it up to dry in the tent. The job is tedious, it's the only sort of routine I've got going here. Even if I've only been doing it for a short while, Nevermind the fact that I skipped out on it for quite a few weeks.

The clothing's odour is still not one I've gotten used to, although it no longer is blinding.

Soon though, I'll be off this island.

Day: 12

But not soon enough for my liking. I'm getting use to moving a wheelbarrow and doing laundry constantly. It feels too normal, and leaves a rotten feeling on my skin. A feeling that isn't the dirt that's left on me after I scrub the clothes clean. It's not something that can be cleaned off, but the longer it sits the deeper it sinks into my skin.

Soon, it'll reach my heart.

Day: 13

Devin still doesn't talk to me. I haven't talk to anyone in days. The other News have been avoiding me like the plague since the whole Johnny fiasco. Even Max and Lyle have been giving me sad smiles from a distance. Tommy still hangs around me though, even if he doesn't speak. I doubt he would even if he could.

Day: 14

This will never end.

Day: 15

If the days weren't already blurring together, they definitely are now. Maybe I'll talk to Devin today. I doubt I will. At least Pan hasn't been around to bother me either. On my 50th day here I can leave. Which means 35 more days. And the farther away I stay from Pan the better my chances of leaving are, so I guess this is all a good thing.

I good, but a boring thing. I'd kill for some excitement around here, and I'm sure if I told that to Pan, he'd take that phrase a bit to literally.

So that may have been painfully short, however there is another chapter coming up later tonight to make up for it. Charlie is so bored, it's amazing, and I needed to show time moving forward.

Anyway, if you prefer shorter chapters and more frequent updates let me know, and then I'll change up my style. If not, I'll keep doing what I'm doing.

In the meantime, continue to experience the world, and I'll see you tonight.
