Chapter 3:Huts on the beach
Trying to find shelter and food
Perspective: Jack
Well, since Simon, Ralph and I went hunting but still on the island we had an argument on whether we should find shelter or hunt for food. I got mad because I wanted to kill a pig and eat it because I was hungry but Ralph and Simon wanted to build a shelter where we can all stay including Piggy and the choir group. So I got mad and stormed off to go take a bath. When I looked up I saw a inscrutable thing but I also saw a tree with beautiful tendrils. Nobody would listen to me and that's why I got mad. People think I'm mean but I'm not. I didn't really care about whether the Ralph and Simon wanted to find shelter for the kids because they were having bad dreams, all I wanted to do was hunt for food! It has been a vicissitudes day of hunting. Then Ralph gives me this look like I'm rapt or upset about something. Well duh.. I'm the only one trying to really find help and get off this island. Because Simon knew I was mad he gave me the contrite look so I could feel sorry for him, but I'm not. I thought that the pigs would be on top of the mountain but Simon tried to prove to me that he was capable of hunting for the pigs with two other boys but he kept saying he could go by himself. Right now I was just paranoid by everybody disagreeing and not listening to me. I should just be on my own and find my own way to get help because no one seems to be on the same page with me. Although the island seems like a place where you chill but not when you are lost in who knows where. Hopefully things will change!

I love that you were very detailed in every part of your paragraph. Like when you said stuff about the mountain. I like that you did really good explaining yourself as Jack. I would think that you were Jack because of the sentence about you wanting to kill a pig. I can see that you explained very good and that you did it very nice. I can see that you took your time in this journal writing and it is really good.
