Blog 9 Pigggy reflects on the island.

God what a horrible day today it seemed like the night was never going to end and that I was going to die because my asthma was acting up again. The haunting memories kept me up and shuddering the entire night. First looking back at the fact that we had commited murd_ well an accident. I mean we could'nt see anything and we did'nt do anything to him why should we be blamed!!? Why should we be punished for something we did'nt do?!! Oh sorry got off subject. Anyway I also think it was really freaky how there are only me and Ralph and a few littluns so we have nearly no hope to keep up the fire now. Oh my god we are going to die!! *Sigh* I felt like dead weight and like I was useless when I could not help out to get some fire wood simply becuase of my asthma "sucks to your ass-mar" he always says he might not be the kindest chief but he does get things done. Unfourtenetly we are a little low on man power at this point and little people with little loyalty. This isnt good to talk about becuase of my asthma and I will really start to gesticulate. That isnt the worst of it all. during the raid that savage Jack and his little boys with glasses were stifling on our hope to escape simpl becuase we could not light the fire now. I was smothered in fear at the time now reflecting on it makes me feel like a huge amount of dead weight. I never thought that humans would be able of such...in-humanity even at that age I can't belive that people could have such burtality and ability to inflict pain like Jack. Poor Simon he must be looking down at us from heaven in a beautiful phosphorescence looking down at us in shame seeing how we had reverted to such savegry........

Anthony,

I really liked the view that you thought Piggy would have on the different situations in the chapter and I really liked how you had Piggy get a little off topic in the middle because it seems like something Piggy would really do.

Some suggestions that i have to you for this blog are at some parts you had sentences that didn't really make sense. "Unfortunately we are a little low on man power at this point and little people with little loyalty." What dose "little people with little loyalty" mean. Do you want to say there are very few of them and the only ones that are left have little loyalty. Or that only little'ns are left and the little'ns have little loyalty.

In this sentence you used gesticulate in the wrong way. "This isn't good to talk about because of my asthma and I will really start to gesticulate." are you saying that talking isn't good for his asthma because he will start to talk with his hands (gesticulate).

there were also some small errors with spelling and capitalization but other than that I really enjoyed reading this blog.

I really liked how piggy describes himself as "dead weight." I also liked how you made it so piggy still wasn't able to say murder and tried to trick himself into thinking it wasn't his fault at all.
I think you need to add more about how he felt when the glasses were actually stolen. I'm also not sure if you used smothered and gesticulate right. There were a few spelling errors too. Otherwise, it was a really good blog.

This blog was good but it was not one of your best it needs a lot of fixing up but not as much as your other on.
