You are trapped on an island. You have a fresh supply of water, and many food resources. What are three items you would want to have, and what would be the first thing you do on the island?

Since you said, "trapped" that makes me think I would be staying awhile... so I would want the following.
1. A medium sized axe (this would serve both as a means of protection as well as something to be used to cut wood to build a shelter and a boat to hopefully leave the island one day).
2. A sharpening stone for said axe.
3. A laminated picture of my wife and boys. (while their images are printed in my memory I would want to have it to remind me to never give up trying to get off of the island - to return home to them).
The first thing I would do is explore the island to find out how large it is, if I am the only person on it as well as to determine if there are any natural shelters already available (so I wouldn't have to build one). As well it would allow me to determine the best place to build a shelter, if I could not find a natural one.
It would allow me to find where the water supply is as well as the many food resources.
=============
Secondary and tertiary "things to do":
Once I was done exploring the island and if I did not find a natural shelter, I would start building a simple shelter (most likely a lean to) that would give me some protection while I built a larger shelter.
And I would start with building a boat (either a dug out canoe or a larger boat).

A large crate full of stretched canvasses, an easel, and a full set of paints and brushes. Then I'd learn to paint all the scenery.
I'm used to taking my camera everywhere, but without the modern technology, what good is a camera?

A yacht.
A cove to dock my yacht.
My yacht will have much of the other things I'll need.
The first thing to do would be to dock my yacht.
Since people are not items, I can't say any one person.

1. A toolset with about a zillion nails and tools that never rust and never break.
2. A gynormous amount of wood, that can be used to build shelter.
3. Lots and lots of rope.

i will not even notice the supplies. the fact that i feel i am trapped already makes me feel there's no way out. so what would be the point in trying to survive? i would rather end my life, since it will end anytime soon anyway. i mean, if i am in that situation that is.
