Lord of the Flies Post 1

Today was a crazy day we met with this fatty known as “Piggy” and a boy who is skinny, his name is Ralph. The first day on the island today was confusing; I had many thoughts going around my mind. I thought I was not going to survive today but since we met with Piggy and Ralph, I think we might live for a while considering now that Ralph is the leader. Piggy seems like a great observer to help us hunt or plan things out for shelter. His effulgence might come in handy even though I hate him so much. I do not think Ralph has any experience being a leader. C’mon, I lead the choir, and the hunting group that’s more experience than Ralph has. I can be pliant leading the whole thing. The intricacies on that shell was amazing but just because he blew into that shell does not mean he is like the lord. As I went to on the expedition with Ralph, and Simon it was a great trip, now that I know that this place is an island and that we might not ever get out alive I’ am freaking out because we can starve to death. Encountering the pig was incredulous I was nervous to go kill it because it is like killing a human, why did I proffer to look like the big guy hunting a pig if I cant even kill it. Since I’ am the leader of the hunting group I now know I need to step up and do things out of the ordinary killing things I would never kill c’mon I’ am only twelve. There is still time for me to step up for hunting. Why was Piggy elected to be in charge while we left on the expedition, he has asthma he cannot control a whole group of people he would have an asthma attack or something. I think that Piggy will not last without eating. While we all sniggered at him, I think Piggy felt bad but I do not care about him I care about my self to survive for now we have to work as a group. I feel that people might start to be scared of me now that I have a knife but probably everyone is thinking about me and what I can do with the knife.
1. Describe the setting of the island.
The island is covered with rocks we are on the coral reef.

2. What major event has brought you to this island?
With the plane being crashed theres no way out unless a miracle happens. I was also brought to meet with other people with the conch.

3. Introduce yourself and explain your relationship to the other characters (of interest) who have been introduced so far.
Hi, I' am Jack. Today I met with other people named Piggy, Ralph and Simon. I think that since our groups have met we might have a chance to live. Piggy has the effulgence to help us live but he might not live in my opinion. Since he has asthma he can have an asthma attack or he can pass out. Simon scares me with his faints it seems like he is dying out of nowhere and I dont want nobody to die.


4. Why are there no adults on this island?
There are no adults because they are all dead and they are the only ones there who are the children on the island.

5. What powers does a person holding the conch have? How do you feel about the conch?
Ralph has the power to call the group back to meet, also having the power of leadership because Ralph has the power to help the group if they get lost.

6. What is the choir’s job? How do you feel about the boys in the choir?
The choirs job now is to hunt, and I Jack will be leading the group again to hunt for food. I think that they are agressive to kill something but at the moment they are pretty scared to even move a muscle. I have a knife for hunting but we will need to look for weapons for the choir to help me hunt. Piggy will come in handy to help us look for weapons.


1. Why do you feel you should be elected chief?
I feel that I should have been elected cheif because I have more experience in leadership. I lead a group which is the choir which I will be leading again as the hunters. Ralph doesn't have experience in leading a group, but I think he can lead us with the conch to get our attention and stuff. I will just help him.


2. Why couldn’t you kill the pig?
The reason why was because I was scared. I' am only twelve I never killing a living animal before in my life. Killing a animal is like killing a human. Now I have to step up to kill more animals since I' am the leader of the hunting group.
