Final Blog. "Cry of the Hunters." "Save Me?" Perspective: Ralph.

Dear Diary,
When Jack and his hunters go hunting and looking for me, I first hide behind a thick thicket. Samneric are kind and throw me a piece of meat to eat. The only reason why Samneric joined Jack's tribe is because otherwise they would have been beaten and threated; most likely killed. Roger planned to kill me, and when he did he planned to put my head on the sharp end of a stick truculently. While hunting me, they first tried to get me out of my hiding spot which was the thick thicket. To finally get me out, they catch the entire thicket on fire. While I'm running for my life, I ran towards the beach, I came to a full cessation, and you would never guess what I saw. I saw a naval officer. The naval officer even had epaulettes. Jack got on the beach by chasing me. When the naval officer spoke to us, Percival could not remember his name. I indeed took the blame for the island getting out of control. The naval officer was very disappointed in us because he really thought that we could have done better than this, that meaning not letting the island get out of control.
Sincerely, Ralph.

Blog #11. "Castle Rock."

1. Piggy told Ralph to blow the conch to call a meeting even though there was only a few of them left in the group.
2. Piggy tells Jack that he is way tougher than him and better, so that he'll give Piggy his specks. He trys to reason with him.
3. Ralph claims that they'll look much better than Jack's tribe because he says Jack's tribe look like savages.
4. The hunters don't let Ralph's tribe in to Castle Rock.
5. When Jack shows up, he had been hunting.
6. Ralph calls Jack a cheater and a theif, and this causes a fight.
7. After the fight Samneric get tied up and threatened until they join Jack's tribe. I think they should make a talisman so that the other tribe will leave them alone.
8. While Piggy is making his plea Roger is throwing stones at him.

9. I believe Roger is responsible for Piggy's death because if Roger hadn't started the fight, then most of this wouldn't have happened. Roger is also the one who truculently pushes the rock. But Jack also didn't come to a cessation he continued being evil. Mainly I believe Roger is to blame because he is the one who pushes the rock and started the fight. Roger might have meant it to be a diddle because Piggy is the smart one and Roger is jealous along with Jack. I conclude that Roger is to blame, Roger was delirious about Piggy's death.

BLOG-10. The Shell and the Glasses. "Death?"

Okay so pretty much…I’m dead. As strange as it sounds I’m hovering right above the island; it looks so much different from up here. Anyways, Diary, I decided I would tell you some of my opinions on some of the events that I have been observing. One event was when Ralph and Piggy were discussing my death. Ralph claimed that the boys murdered me, but Piggy claims that it was an accident. Ralph is freaking out because the boys murdered me and he is thinking about how much in trouble they’ll be if any adults find out. Piggy keeps saying that it was an accident. Both boys claim that they were not part of the incident and were outside of the circle from where I was being killed. That part is true.

As you may know, Jack has separated himself from Ralph’s tribe. Jack now has his own rules, and he is his own chief Jack and his tribe live in Castle Rock, which is a cave. One of the rules is that the hunters must guard the entrance and not let anyone else in outside of their own tribe. Whoever doesn’t listen to Jack, get’s beat up. Wilfred had been tied to a tree for hours and Jack was going to beat him up. Pretty much for no reason either.

Jack, Maurice, and Roger plan to crash on Ralph’s tribe. Meaning taking things that they want. Roger and Maurice were asking Jack how they were going to make a fire. Jack then explains that they’re going to steal Piggy’s specks. This is all happening during a storm!

So as planned, Ralph, Maurice, and Roger go to Ralph’s tribe when they’re in the shelters. Ralph beats up a boy, but turns out the boy really wasn’t part of Jack’s tribe. The good thing was that they didn’t take the conch. But instead they took Piggy’s specks! Now Ralph’s tribe can’t make a fire! Jack is such a cheater.

Blog#8&9. Chapter 8: Gift for the Darkness & Chapter 9: A View to a Death. Blog. "Pig head?"

Blog Part #1:

I believe the most terrifying scene out of the three events that happens would be when Lord of the Flies talks to Simon. Lord of the Flies also happens to be strangely, a pig head. First, think about it, would you be freaked out if a pig head started talking to you? I think so. The pig head was on a stick and was in the woods because Jack and his hunters gave it as a offering for the beast, thinking that maybe the beast would leave them alone. Well, while Simon was in the woods by himself, the pig head started talking to him claiming it was the beast and teasing Simon that he couldn’t kill it. Not only did he tease him, but the pig head was telling Simon that the beast is really inside of him and everyone. The creepiest part was that everything was in Simon’s head. The Lord of the Flies wasn’t talking to him, but Simon thought he was. Everything was in Simon’s head, yet he didn’t know. In my opinion, that’s pretty crazy considering that a pig head is telling you that everyone has their darkness, but when in reality, its all in your head.


Blog Part #2:

I strongly believe that it is Jack’s fault for Simon’s death. One reason I believe this is because if the hunters were right in front of Simon, killing him, it’s not like they didn’t see him. Another reason is because Jack thinks Simon was the beast in disguise. But the main reason, is that Jack does not feel bad whatsoever. He blames it on Simon saying that it was his fault for coming out of the woods. I will explain my reasoning. First, let’s get to reality, you can tell a difference from a person and an animal, they had to know that it was a person from one of the groups. My next reasoning is since Jack thought Simon was the beast in disguise, it’s almost like he knew it was Simon. This is why I believe it was Jack’s fault. People do evil things, and Jack is one of those people that are dark inside.

Lord of the Flies. Blog 7, chapter 7, "Shadows and Tall Trees." Perspective: Jack. Own Titile: "Game of a Pig."

Dear Diary,
Today Ralph speared a pig and I bet he felt bravado. I am obviously better because I needed to finish things off. Since everyone was so happy, we decided to play a game. We pretended that Robert was the pig, and we re-lived the scene. It made everyone more excited and it was the complete opposite of dun. After the game, Robert suggests that we should use a real pig. I suggested that we use a littlun. Littluns don’t do anything anyway. I say this would foreshadow that a littlun might die, or maybe someone else, like piggy.

Guess what? We are sure there is a beast! Not only did Sam and Eric see it and describe it, but I saw it! It was moving side to side.
Diary, you want to know why I hate Ralph so much? I hate him because he always orders everyone around. I hunt, I get people meat. I should be in charge not him even though a lot of people think he talks sagely. I don’t want to talk to him about it because everyone ends up ganging up on me. I don’t want to feel impervious. I want Ralph to get hurt in a game of rugger.



From,
Jack.

LOTF. "Beastie?" Perspective: Simon.

Dear Diary,
Today we got a sign from grown-ups-the beast. Sam and Eric sure described it as a beast. The thing is, the “beast, “ is actually an aviator that came down on a parachute and no one knows that. Sam and Eric were so terrified, they described it with sharp teeth and claws. They’re so little, their imagination blows right over them. Everyone had a different reaction. Some people wanted to hide diffidently and some people wanted to attack mutinously as if he had seen a leviathan. Ralph wants to make a plan and is embroiled in it. I believe there is not a beast. It would have gotten us by now, if it hasn’t, then there really mustn’t be a beast. I believe the beast could possibly be an aviator. A pilot that came down from an airplane. Let’s hope, it feels like we’re going to be on this island for forever-and it feels interminable.



Yours,
Simon.

Lord of the Flies, Chapter 5. "Assembly." Perspective: Piggy.

Dear Diary,

Today Ralph called an assembly because he was angry. The reason for being angry was simply because no one was doing their jobs. The littluns were hanging out by the beach doing nothing, and not to mention pooping everywhere; that was contaminating our food. People were also making fires that weren’t on the mountain. The teamwork is lacking. Everyone helped build the first shelter and the second, but no one helped with the third shelter. No one was filling the coconuts with fresh water either. The thing that made Ralph ludicrously angry was that Jack let the fire on the mountain burn out. We might have been rescued. I am angry myself, we could have been rescued, and then of course Jack has to ruin everything tempestuously. I also believe that the littluns need to do the bathroom by the rocks where the tide will clean it up.

The worst thing Diary, is that it seems like our friendship and happiness is falling apart. Why? Because Ralph thinks that the fire is most important on this island, but Ralph thinks hunting is the most important. I’m on Ralph’s side because the shelters guard us from harsh weather, animals, and help keep us warm. Not only that, but Ralph is chief so I respect him.

At night, the littluns keep everyone awake because of their lamentation. They’re afraid of the beast. Many people are talking about it now and they’re scared. Percival claims that the beast is coming from the water and he’s very afraid. It was creepy, when everyone was talking about it at the assembly, the trees started a discursive as if someone had said an incantation.

Diary, the dirtiest thing about human nature, is that we’re violent. We’re competitive and sometimes people never stop until they get what they want. If I were the leader/chief, I would have everything planned so that we never have problems. I would rule with decorum. I would be caring, but strict.


Keep you updated,
Piggy.
