Ch.2 Journal

     chapter 2 of LOTF was a tad crazy. in the beginning of this chapter Ralph blows the conch and calls a meeting. the meeting is help and Ralph tell the boys that they need to be organized. so I'm guessing that means rules. all the boys have to raise their hands in order to speaks. Oh and don't forget your not allowed to speak unless you have the conch shell in hands.
     The boys are happy to have rules so that their able to punish anyone who breaks them. seeing as how they might never get off the island they have to work together to get stuff done right.
     Just a little more into the book Piggy, rather blind without his glasses, grabs the conch from Ralph and complains about how no one pays attention to his ideas. While the boys are arguing back and forth the fire is spreading. As the smoke drifts through the air, Piggy rants about all these things they should have done, like build shelters and show him some respect. Then, most likely because of the smoke, his asthma flares up and he can't breathe. Piggy seems to be the most missing of all.

I tried to get the group back in line by calling a meeting, At the meeting place, I gripped the conch shell and berate the boys for their failure to uphold the group’s rules.       If they don't listen we'll never get out this place. I'm ready to go home, but they don't care. It's not fair to me, Simon, and Piggy. I cant blame the littlun's because their still babies. Oh boy the boys are saying I'm not doing my job. What do I say? Do I call the meeting off? I'll just leave it right here       I don't know anymore diary. I'm gonna call it a day, and leave it to them. Then again never mind, I'm gonna stick here for a little bit. I wish you could write back to me or ...

Ch.11 Journal

     Dear Diary, hey buddy how you been? The next morning, me and my few companions try to light the fire in the cold air, but the attempt is hopeless without Piggy’s glasses. Piggy, squinting and barely able to see, suggests that I hold a meeting to discuss their options. I blew the conch shell, and the boys who have not gone to join Jack's tribe assemble on the beach. They decide that their only choice is to travel to the Castle Rock to make Jack and his followers see reason. I've  decided to take the conch shell to the Castle Rock, hoping that it will remind Jack’s followers of his former authority. Once at Jack’s camp, however, my group encounters armed guards. Jack and I fought for the second time in a row, and Piggy cries out shrilly, struggling to make himself heard over the brawl. I heard  the rock falling, I dove and dodges it. But the boulder strikes Piggy, shatters the conch shell he is holding, and knocks him o...
