So, as much as I hoped this was all a dream, I think this really is real. It's been a whole day and yet I've still not 'woken up'. I'm not sure if it's my instincts or subconscious or whatever that made me skeptical about all this being a dream, but in the end, I'm still here. I don't know if I'm just purely depressed now that the shock is over, or maybe was like this the whole time but the adrenaline kept me going.
Okay, I should stop. I'll do what I did yesterday. Hopefully by recounting what I did today I'll calm down again.
I woke up this morning lying on top of the stacks of cans that I, I guess scavenged is the word, from the other truck yesterday. I might have slid down the driver's seat and onto the cans in the passenger seat. I think I was either still pretty shocked about the whole thing or I was exhausted, because I didn't even felt the pain from sleeping on the cans until I fully awoke as I step out of the truck. The otherworldly scenery can really wake a person immediately.
I tried to keep myself positive and ate breakfast (canned meat isn't a great food to eat in the morning by the way). I checked my phone and I remembered it displaying 6 thirty something. I had plenty of time for the day waking early.
I first tried to memorize my surrounding area, so that I don't get lost among the sea of vehicles. I wanted to look for help, 'cause I thought that I since there's so many other vehicles, there must be other people as well right? I mean, my idea with the canned food was right, so I thought there has to be other people as well.
While I explored my surroundings, I also checked out the scraped vehicles in the meantime and found out something interesting. Every single vehicle seemed to have their insides intact, and by that I mean the driver and passenger seats are completely free from harm. It's weird, but this confirmed my suspicion of other people in this junkyard place, even if I'm basing my claim on some supernatural stuff.
I know that connection might seem desperate, but I honestly don't know if I could survive in this place for a week. The vertigo from looking at the horizon of vehicles gives me a headache and the fact that I haven't seen any living thing or had any human communication for more than 24 hours is giving me a bit of a paranoia. I think I might even believe I'm in some sort of monster's stomach that digest living creatures only!
Actually, that sounds like a pretty good horror idea. I'll get that down on my list later.

I guess my point is, I don't like this place. Like, I 'spiritually' don't like this place? Does that even make sense? I hope I'm not losing it now. Come on, it's only the second day. I can't be like this already. I can't be one of those people who dies early in the movie right?
Okay, enough messing around. I think I've finally calmed down. The silence around me is beginning to ring in my ear and that was starting to drive me crazy. I tried to ignore it and think about other stuff. That's another thing about this place: the complete silence. Other than the sound I make, there literally isn't any other sounds throughout the place. It really makes you realise how noisy everyday is. Even just with nature, there's always leaves swaying from trees or some animal making a sound.
I wanted to break the silence myself, but being in this strange place, I don't really know if that's a good idea. Until I know it's safe, I think I should be quiet. I watched enough horror movies to know how a single sound can be deadly.
Hmm, maybe I should write about other stuff? I guess I should also put in some of my theories about this place. Okay then!
Theory number 1 - It's another world
It doesn't really help that there's nothing that can prove any of my theories by the way. Other than the vehicles around the place, there isn't a single thing that seems out of the norm. Actually, would the fact that the ground seems to be a completely flat concrete piece be out of the norm? I tried to see what the ground is and I can't find the end of the concrete ground even after walking for a fair distance. It's also a bit hard to rest since there's no soft grounds like grass anywhere. I hope there are.
Theory number 2 - This is a discrete junkyard area some secret organisation owns.
I honestly don't think this would be it. I mean, I can guess that it might exist, and it is possible, but I don't think that I, myself would be involved? Why would some secret organisation make me lose consciousness and drag my entire truck here and leave? Maybe they are testing something and I'm the test subject? I don't know. This theory is kind of a bust.
Theory number 3 - It's a pocket dimension.
I guess it could be similar to my first theory, but instead of another world, I might have somehow enter a pocket dimension where vehicles are stored? Okay, maybe not stored, but stashed haphazardly? It's a bit more plausible than my first theory because then how else could I explain the ground and sky?
By the way, I forgot to mention, I found out something else terrifying. There's no moon and stars in the sky at night. In the first night I've been here, I thought it was cloudy or something so that why there wasn't any light outside. But when I saw the supposed 'sun' go down, there were no clouds anywhere! I really think I'm not on Earth and in some other world or dimension.
Right now, I have no solid evidences to prove if anything is true, even if all this seemingly supernatural stuff is everywhere, I don't know how it works. I don't really know if I actually am in another world or not. I think I should just continue to explore the place and hopefully I can finally find something good, or someone.
Fortune, please come my way!
Mark, out.
