Chapter 8



Dear diary,

Today was not a good day at all. All the boys where raging that there was a beast on the mountain. So then Jack try to steal my job and he blow the conch shell together these boys together and tell them about this beast. I'm not in a good mood because I just want to go home. Everyone else seems to not care. Then Jack said if he's not the leader he is leaving and any one can come with him. So then he left cause the boys still kept me in charge.
Later that day Simon and other boys went to search for the beast and Piggy cheered me up with an idea of how to get rescued and the boys followed the order and started to build the fire on the beach. Some of the other boys snuck away and went with Jack. Jack got his group together and kill a sow and offered it to the beast.
Later that night Jack came over and offered us to come and eat dinner with them and Simon went to the top of the mountain. Simon went and saw the sow and thought about the Pigs head. Then he thought it was a good idea to name the pig the lord of the files. Then it is on to another day on this strange island.

chapter 3

Today me and the boys will try to build some shelter but it will probably just end up being me and Simon. So that is what happened exactly so now I'm mad because nothing gets done around here. They think it's just a giant playground. So I think I'm going to have to call a meeting again. Ji called the meeting and the same thing happened they would work for five minutes and then stop working and then go off and play again. So now I'm going to have to do everything by myself like always. It just a normal day like always me doing all the work. So this was my day as usual I end up doing all the work but I got to come up with a plan so they will help two.

Conch Shell

The conch shell symbolizes a way of civilization. If someone has it they can speak if they don’t they cant. This is important so the group is not out of hand and it is civil so they can get things done. The boys use it to talk and Ralph uses it to call meetings. It is used for talking without interruption and it is also used if there is an assembly needed so it happens at the time Ralph calls them.

D day Journal

William is probably effected by this day cause it was such a tragedy. He was effected by this because it was a live or die situation and it probably was scary. He probably questions the goodness of man because it was man vs man war and if man was good there would be no war and killing other man. Man is born with goodness it is a taught behavior when you become a barbaric person   when your born you don't want to kill people but it can be   taught by your surroundings of the people around you. So these are the reason why I think this man question mankind and also how there are barbaric people and how they came to be.
