Whenever I get that notification I go right to the app and see what new stuff she has posted and take away so much advice.

As the echoes died away so did the laughter, and there was silence” (16). Another example of the conch is the military horn. Everyone morning they here the horn and they know its time to get up or time to eat. They’re in a routine and they know exactly what to do when the horn sounds. The boys are the same way. When the hear the sound of that conch they know exactly what to do and they respond…

It starts off with Piggy brainstorming and coming up with this idea; “We can use this to call the others. Have a meeting. They’ll come when they hear us—” He beamed at Ralph. “That was what you meant, didn’t you?

Then Ralph asks Piggy how to use the conch shell to call the others on…

Everyone had the same goal of eventually being rescued. However, the power of the conch, like many tools of power, started to diminish. Rules only work when everyone mutually agrees on them. Jack split off and formed his own colony on the island, and conflict is plentiful. Ralph started to lose members of his camp every day. This was an…

I wasn’t happy with that suggestion since I really wanted to go on the blow up slide, but I had not wish to be rude, so I reluctantly replied with “ok.” As we went around the festival all I could think about the blow up slide, sure the other rides were fun, but I was convinced that the slide will be so much better. The closer and closer we got to the slide, the harder and harder it became to hold in my excitement, which caused me to start to bounce around. Matt just kept laughing at me making me…

A boat came around and had a big spotlight on him then sooner than he could say hey, they had him in the boat. After that they asked him all types of questions and then they said when we are done with getting other people out of the water we will head back. But they could never get everyone because most of the people died on the blow of the explosion, and other people got hit by falling debris and so many different thing’s took people's lives. It pissed Alick off that he was unable to do…
