Day 1 - 23 June, 2018 : Today is my birthday! My parents are making me a spongebob cake at home. It was raining, but I biked to the Tham Luang Caves with my eleven soccer mates. We planned to stay in the caves for 1 hour. It was so fun, until we turned back, and realised that the rain was filling up the cave! We spent the rest of the day, and the night there. It was the worst birthday ever.
Day 2 - 24 June, 2018 : It is really dark in the cave. Coach taught us meditation today, so we could control our thoughts. We worked on our breathing and relaxed. He also taught us how to lie on the floor so you could save energy. It is cold, but we can still have a short sleep every now and then.
Day 3 - 25 June, 2018 : Our eyes are getting used to the dark now. Coach says we will do meditation lots. We are all hoping we are going to be rescued, because our only source of food is the water that drips down the side of the wall, as the water flowing on the ground was dirty.
Day 4 - 26 June, 2018 : Most of our flashlights' batteries are flat, but we can still faintly see. We are doing a lot of meditation, which makes us all feel a little bit better. We are wishing to see our families soon.
Day 5 - 27 June, 2018 : I am starving, as I haven't had food for days now. We are all sick of drinking only water, but it is our only hope to survive. Now, we are all wondering if we will survive anyway. I wonder if anyone has figured out we are missing?
Day 6 - 28 June, 2018 : Today was like any other day in the cave. I think if we all didn't do meditation, so of us would be acting weirdly, or crazy. I'm glad I am stuck with my team, rather than by myself.
Day 7 - 29 June, 2018 We were nearly giving up hope on being rescued. Little did we know, lots of people were gathered outside the cave. Some were pumping thousands of litres of water out of the cave. Others were figuring out how to rescue us.
Day 8 - 30 June, 2018 : There is a big dip towards the entrance of the cave that is fully underwater, so we are just crowded up on a higher part just past Pattaya beach. So if people want to rescue us, they have a big task ahead.
Day 9 - 1 July, 2018 : In our heads, we thought we would have been rescued by now. But I guess it would be a lot of work. Maybe people were working on it? I don't know, but I just wanted to get out of here.
Day 10 - 2 July, 2018 : Somehow, some expert divers managed to get to us, but the task was getting us back. A doctor supplied them with full face oxygen masks to put on us. They also put us to sleep. I completely blanked out, and I don't have any memory of after that
Day 11 - 3 July, 2018 : I don't know what happened, but I was told I was with two expert divers, who navigated me towards the entrance of the cave. Apparently, it took eight hours!
Day 12 - 4 July, 2018 : I woke up in the hospital, with a glass panel in front of me. Apparently we might have diseases from the cave that could easily spread. I am still allowed to see my family, but we can't interact.
Reflection - I like how I made each day have a good paragraph, not just one repeated sentence.
I like how I made the writing smaller, because otherwise it would look so long.
I wish I used better words.

Amazing Mia. You have really understood what it would be like in the caves for so many days. This story is amazing isn't it? The Wild Boars were very lucky.
