The assignment was to bring in items that could fit in a shoebox that you would take with you in the event of a disaster. At first I thought this would be easy to think of items off the top of my head, but I soon realized I really wouldn't need many items. What is really most important are my family members and dog. I would try to grab my purse which would contain any cash and credit cards. I would also take my cell phone and charger so that I could contact my sister and friends. Pictures would be nice to bring, but some of my most important ones are buried in a large stack which I doubt I would have time to search through. My passport and birth certificate are in a safety deposit box at the bank. In a panicked state I'm not sure I would think to take much else besides survival items like food, blankets, flashlights, batteries, and medicine. The project made me think about having a survival kit ready to go at my house and in my car. A backpack would work great with a spare set of clothes and copies of important information.
