Nightfall
Before night fall, make sure you have gotten some wool by killing or shearing sheep, because with three wool you can make a bed (Or you can steal a villager's bed) with a bed you can skip night because mobs who want to kill you spawn when it is dark.

The End
Eye Of Ender
Eyes of ender are mysteriously connected to the End and behave strangely when used.
They can lead you to open another dimension. When you throw an eye of ender it flies in the direction of a stronghold; when the eye goes straight down it means you have to dig down to find it. One room of the stronghold is the end portal room. In this room, if you fill in the missing eyes of ender around the portal frame, the portal activates, after which you can jump into the portal to travel to the End.
