Today was an interesting day. I don't quite know what to think of this situation. If I recall correctly, last time I was in a complete state of mush thinking that we will all die. More importantly, I thought I was going to die. A guy like me with little experience in the wild. I won’t make it very far on my own. But with Ralph as a leader, the group and I might actually have a chance. Today, he was able to singlehandedly bring up the group’s morale by telling us that we will be found. He said that his father is in the navy. I am hopeful that we will be found sooner or later. We made a big fire at the top of the mountain. Everyone was rallied up, despite the fact that one of the littluns claimed that he saw a serpent like creature. He later went missing in the burning forest. We have been on this island for a very short time and one of us is already missing or dead. What if I am next? I honestly need to stop thinking about those those things because I will loose my sanity if I persist. There is no telling. So far, we know that this island is a tropical island full of pigs. So there is sustenance. Piggy was bullied by Jack. To be honest, I don't quite like Jack. I feel like he is the weakest link. What else... oh yes. Ralph seems a bit ignorant sometimes, but he is a good leader. Piggy is a victim. Jack is animalistic. Oh and today we set some rules. Whoever has the conch has the right to speak and everyone else has to be quiet. Things have progressed today, but with a hefty sacrifice of a littluns life. All I can do is stay sane.
Hey man it's me Eric( not Sam ). I just wanted to say that don't worry I got your back. I know today was a hard day and that something really sad happened but don't worry you are not next. None of us are next. We have a great leader like Ralph with us and we have so many helping hands. I would like to be your friend. You can join the Sam'nEric duo. We can all be friends so yea don't worry we have Ralph and that piggy guy talks a lot even though I don't listen so we are all gonna work together and not die. Stop talking about this death thing it's making me sad.

ReplyDeleteHi, all the other bigguns' are scary. But you're not, you seem nice. I know I wander off a lot when the group is tryin' to work, but I want to know somethin' and you seem the nicest.
The beasties... Is they real? Is they comin' to get us? Is this island good? At night I can't sleep because the other kids are crying and screaming. I miss my Mommy and Daddy and I wanna go home. The beasties are out there, and the biggun's are scared, we all know. Thats why we go away when it's time to do work. We saw the chief and hunter being scared. We all thunk that you are the best to ask 'cause you're so calm.
So, are the beasties here? Will you make them go away for us?
As one of Jack's followers, I believe that Jack is not animalistic in the least bit. He was the one that decided that we (the choir) and himself to become the hunters of the group. What Jack is trying to do is to keep the group alive by giving us all sustenance. As for the fire, it would have worked if Piggy did not tell us to put out the fire. Honestly, Piggy needs to stop bossing people around when he barely he does nothing. As I said before, he never contributes anything and his only job was to keep the littlun's together. He failed in that and now blaming it on us. Simon with your sanity, you don't have to worry about the beast at all. Even if there is a beast as the littlun's have said, us the choir and Jack would be sure to to hunt the beast and kill it.
