After Ralph looks up at the Naval officer he soon comes to realize with joy that he wouldn’t have died. As Ralph and the other Naval officers heard screaming and feet running towards the beach The officer drew his pistol and Ralph hid behind him. In shock Jack and his hunters dropped their weapons. Everyone who was left on the island was extremely happy to know that they would all be rescued. In the whisk of excitement the boys forgot about hunting one another and went to go to tell all the others.   In fear Ralph stayed on the beach and the Naval Officer asked "why won't you go share the good news with your friends". Ralph then responded "No sir, those are not my friends", Ralph can feel the Officer glare at him for a time but then cut off by the sounds of excitement. As all of the boys came back to the beach choppers came from the sky I asked to be in the same chopper as the Naval Officer and Ralph thought "finally rescued for this wretched plac...

Dear Diary, As I hide somewhere in the jungle I keep thinking very miserably. Even about the chaos that has gone on in the island. Believe it or not Simon and Piggy were my friends on this island and I came to a realization that all kinds of civilization that all of the boys had have been stripped from the island or by the island. I fell and came across the head of the sow, The Lord of the Flies. The sow's head is just a white skull even the same color as the conch shell. I'm so angry that I even knocked down the skull and took the spear that was impaled in the sow and I am going to use it against Jack. I than sneak into Castle Rock and I find Samneric guarding the entrance. The twins were kind enough to give me some food to eat but refused to join me. They than tell me that Jack plans on sending his tribe after me the next day. I hide in a thicket and drift off to sleep. As soon as I wake up I hear Jack talking and torturing one of the twins to find out where I was hidi...

Dear diary,   Did you know it was very hard to light a fire in the cold? It's practically hopeless without Piggy's glasses. I don’t understand why Jack always has to do irrelevant task to get us mad. But it's okay, we'll be civilized and politely ask for it. It's not necessary to overreact over small things, and hopefully they'll have the same mindset for us.   We tried to go and be polite but that didn’t work. I tried to remind all of them that THEY chose ME to be their leader, why try to neglect it now? I blew the conch shell, and of course they over reacted and started hitting us with rocks. But what they did is unforgettable and unforgivable. They killed piggy, they threw a boulder at him and sadly they didn’t miss. Capturing Sam and Eric is one thing but then killing Piggy? They crossed the line.   I'm starting to lose hope. Hope in getting rescued. Hope in this society. But everything happens for a reason, things will change .. Hopefully. B...

Dear Diary, I have no words of the event that took place last night. I'm in complete shock and possible denial. Piggy and I met on the beach we both have all types of injuries on us. We both feel completely awful both physically and emotionally. I feel completely filled with guilt right at this moment, Piggy is trying to convince me that we didn't commit the murder. We both know that we did murder Simon on that night. I had the conch in my hands but I couldn't help but laugh all of a sudden. I keep telling Piggy that we have been apart of the murder of Simon. Quickly Piggy just brushes the charge off of his shoulders. Only Piggy and I are left everyone else has gone off to join Jack's tribe even a handful of littluns and his tribe is located at Castle Rock. Jack finally got what he asked for with absolute power he rules. I knew that Jack was plotting to attack me sooner or later but the question on my mind was when. Every one that was left in my own group ...

Dear Diary,               Today is a very difficult day and I feel as if there are worse days coming. What happened today was that I  believed bathing was one thing to do today. Playfully I was squirting water at Piggy and by mistake at his specs. But than Piggy noticed the not so pleasant whether which was very cloudy and looked as if it was going to rain. Soon we started to wonder where everyone had gone off to but we soon came to realize that they have went to Jack's party. I was upset that they had left just for some stupid meat. Of course I was uneasy because they all believe they are a tribe because they put war paint on. Piggy and I went over to the party Jack was holding, Piggy and I went to see how the events were and to just check up on things. At the event it seems as if everyone is having a blast. Jack of course sits as if he would be crowned king of this island. Jack than persuades...

Dear Diary, All the boys were happy about killing the pig. Yet, my leadership was questioned by no one other than Jack himself. I had no idea why he would question it. I soon came to realize that all he wanted was to become chief instead of me. Jack told all of the boys that I am a coward which was a lie. Jack then wanted to vote on who will be chief  and told all of the other boys to vote. To my surprise no one did vote for me to step down as chief. Jack wanted to become leader so much that he left all of the others including myself. He even wanted all of the other hunters to join his tribe. He is now bribing others with meat so they may join his tribe. Which would probably leave me with nothing and no one. Just when I was in doubt Piggy then comes to comfort me. He than tells me an idea that lifts my spirit which is we should make another signal fire but not on the mountain rather on the beach. I feel so much more uplifted with hope that P...

Dear Diary, Today I did something that I never thought that I would ever do. That I always thought was completely wrong and insane to enjoy. But before we get to that part I'll tell you from the beginning of what happened today. I wake up every morning to an island that we may or may not be rescued from. No one really listens to what I have to say anymore. I am getting so frustrated with everything and my hair isn't really helping either. I have a lot to think about and I just feel as if the ocean is an impenetrable wall from any hope of be rescued anytime soon. But Simon makes me feel so much more better about being rescued. The hunters found pig feces on the ground so of course Jack wants to hunt the pig and search for the beast. All of the boys include on going on the hunt even me, the excitement of the chase is amazing. I then throw my spear at the boars snout but doesn't kill the boar. even though it didn't kill it great emotions come flooding ...

Dear Diary,   The day has started off to be insane. War was happening in the sky, and it was a dog fight between two other planes. While everyone was sleeping. Some didn’t even know what was going on in the sky. A plane had come crashing down, and a man fell out of his plane with a parachute but the man was dead.   Sam and Eric were supposed to check on the signal fire but of course they drift off to sleep. Sam and Eric finally woke up to tend the fire and to make it brighter. They both then mistook a man who has fallen for the beastie. They both hurry to the camp grounds and they tell everyone what they saw. They say they saw the beastie and it has long claws etc.   Everyone then thought the man was the beastie because he was hanging in the trees. The reason why everyone thought he was the beastie was because whenever the wind comes, and goes the man will rock back, and forth with his parachute. As of right now I have mixed emotions about th...

Dear Diary, Today I had a lot to think about. I was walking along side of the beach thinking how to lead all of the boys to safety and how to be a good leader for them. I had called an assembly to talk about all the failures that had happened on the island so far. Also how they all are complaining about how they have to go to the bathroom in different places across the island. Or gather water for everyone who needs to drink.   I am so upset that my hair has been so tough to control lately and how it is so tangled all the time. I am trying to the best of my abilities to make sure everyone knows that the beastie is not real. The littluns lately have been frantic about the visons they have of the bestie. Everyone on this island does not help as much, and don’t pull their weight around the island unlike some. As Jack must come to put his two cents in and say everyone must not be frightened, and to just put up with it.   One Littlu...

In the story a conch shell is made as a symbol. The conch shell represents civilization amongst the boys on the island. The use of the Conch shell to the boys is who so ever holds the conch shell in an assembly in his hands may speak. No one may interrupt anyone who is speaking except for Ralph because he is the chief. Sometimes this does not work because the others wouldn't let Piggy speak in an assembly. The beastie is another symbol in this story. The beastie represents fear among some of the boys. Ralph does not believe in "the beastie" because he thinks that it is the littluns figment of their imagination. Simon believes that it may be "them" because he believes everyone can be mean or evil. Jack is determined to kill the beastie when he comes across it.   The fire is one other symbol in this story. The fire symbolizes hope. The fire was started with one lens of Piggy's specs which caused hope. Which means that they are ho...

Dear Diary, Something terrible happened today on this island. As Simon, Piggy and I saw a ship pass by the island an idea came to all of us that we should hurry and use Piggy's specs to light a fire to use as a signal. I have told both Sam and Eric to tend the fire but to my surprise they left and joined Jack in hunting a pig for its blood and meat. The fire then burned half of the mountain down. At this point my blood is boiling and I don't know how to feel about Jack anymore. We had a chance to be rescued by a ship that was passing by the island. Jack had to go and ruin it all for the rest of us who are stuck on the island. Piggy and I confront Jack for what he has done, and what gets me so irritated is that he doesn't even care about us getting rescued. For the first time I saw Piggy stand up to Jack but in a result Jack hit him in the gut, and it wasn't pretty. Piggy's specs broke and we lost a fire starter so from now on we all need to be careful. Tonigh...

No one really knows what the beastie may be, but some may have ideas of what it could possibly be. The Littleuns believe that the beastie is a snake, and they tell the others. Ralph believes that "the beastie" is the littleuns figment of their imagination. Simon believes it's "them" he believes that the beastie is non-other then the littuleuns because he thinks all people can be mean or evil. Piggy does not believe in the beastie at all. At this point of the story Jack could care less of what the others thought about the beastie but only cares on finding it and killing it. I think the Beastie could be absolutely anything and it may be various of animals all in one, possibly a mutant. The beastie might be quite dangerous, and could hurt the boys on the island if they do not get rescued on time. The beastie may be revealed towards the end of the book, and going to terrorize the boys.

Dear diary,   This week has been a mess. I keep trying and trying to build the huts but they just won’t stay. Maybe it’s because everyone is taking this as a joke (besides Simon he’s been very helpful). But I am tired of everyone slacking off, we’ve been here for a while it’s time to stop taking things so lightly. When we’re all at the assemblies everyone is all energized and excited to work, but as soon as it’s time to do the work everyone goes back to playing around.   Not to mention that Jack and his hunters haven’t caught a single pig, hopefully they will soon. That boy has the real nerve to talk back as if he’s the leader. If he can’t hunt what makes him think, he can lead? I’m just under a lot of stress. The little kids are a complete disaster; they don’t do anything whatsoever. All they do is have nightmares about a beastie, I feel bad but their nightmares have nothing to do with their actual work.   Hopefully things between Jack ...

Dear Diary,   I can feel that today will be a better day, as I was blowing into the conch everyone gathered on the platform.  Everyone was getting ready too have an assembly to talk about how no one is listening to what I have to say to them, and how others will not work. Piggy has not done his job so far as in taking the littleuns names. They are all  little kids who don't obey and don't listen all they want to do is play on the beach and make sand castles. But at last Piggy, Simon, and myself have finally spotted a ship in the distance. An idea has came to me that we should build a fire to signal to the ship. As we are getting the fire started with Piggy's specs, something terrible happened. As no one was guarding the fire it speared on half of the mountain. I assigned the hunters to watch it so therefore it will not happen again after this incident. After this incident I am questing my leadership if I am a right fit for this role. ...

Dear diary, Everything has been going downhill. First there is a war which is the reason we had to get in that plane, the point of it was to end up in another country not a random island. But that didn’t work out to well now did it.   All we have is each other. We need a leader, and a great one too. And fellas that is me, I may not know how to sing a C-sharp note but there is one important thing I know. I know how to be civilized and make sure we are all protecting each other. Or at least I will try my very best, that's something I can guarantee you.   At last I was given my rightful title. I was chosen as the leader, but to make sure everyone was happy I assigned Jack as head hunter. Hopefully he is satisfied with that title. Well that’s all for today.   Sincerely, Ralph       

The conch shell symbolizes civilization on the island amongst all the boys. The Conch shell is important because he helps the boys maintain a sign of respect towards one another and let everyone speak freely with the conch in his hands. The conch is only used when there is an assembly being taken place. The way it is used is whoever holds the conch can speak and no one can interrupt. The only person who may interrupt is Ralph because he is the one in charged. 

              I believe that William Golding was affected by being a part of D-day because he had to witness all of his friends being brutally murdered by the Germans. He was also affected because he believed that he would die while fighting and he wrote his sister a letter saying "do not expect me to come home." He was also affected because he was constantly debating whether he would make it out alive. As he was jumping out of the boat for safety he saw his friends/ co-workers being shot at in the water and drowning by their equipment. Golding was affected because he was 19 out of many and going to start college and going into War for his country.                Golding was questioning the goodness of mankind because he was seeing all of these terrible things the Germans were doing to others. How could they have the stomach to kill someo...
