I would need a fire for warmth and to cook the animals I would kill with my knife. With my sleeping bag, I would sleep in it and use it also for warmth. HIS:

You are a religious person who is very close to their family. You love having your cellphone and you also like listening to music. I would say spaghetti is your favorite dish and Pepsi Cola would be your favorite drink. Your lucky Jordan Eclipse sneakers must also be your favorite shoes. I drew all of these conclusions because of the items you listed. The order of the items also might have meant something.

You’re very close to your grandmother because you have a blanket from her and her earrings. You also play the violin, so you are talented.

I concluded all of my theories by the ten items listed.
