Dear Journal,

Our plane crashed today and I am left stranded on this island with no adults! If only my Auntie was here, none of this would be happening; she would take care of me and give me all the sweets I desire. It is very hot and humid on this island, which doesn’t help at all with my asthma. I can't even go swimming to cool off, because my Auntie says I can't on account of my asthma. The first person I met was Ralph and he seemed completely disinterested in everything I told him. Until I told him they called me “Piggy” and he went off telling all the boys, and now I’m tortured with that. I want to tell him to stop because that really annoys me. I also found a conch shell within the ocean. Ralph was eager to do it but he wasn't blowing right! I told him to use air from his stomach and soon he made a very loud noise, which was the start of his calling to other boys on the island. He answered my questions in short sentences and didn’t even ask me my name. The first assembly was just held, too, and Ralph was chosen leader by voting and when Jack asked who wanted him for leader nobody answered. He's batty and think he the best but everyone except his choir of boys doesn’t listen to him, and out of will too.

  1. Yeah I know what you mean about Jack. He doesn't really treat any of the boys nicely. He only cares about his choir and how they're going to be hunters.

  2. I don't think that anyone actually understands about our asthma, but I wish they did! Its not fair to us! I also think that it was very unfair that there was no bother to ask us our name..

  3. I think the conch shell will come in handy. I know right, I hate having asthma. It really limits me on what I can do. I wonder when the hunters will get us some food.

  4. Piggy, stop worrying about everything and forget what your Auntie says because she is not here right know and what she don't know won't hurt her. I also know what you mean about Jack. He just doesn't seem to care about anything but hunting. You also need to pull yourself together and be a man.

  5. I really would appreciate it if you would stop calling me Piggy it is Not my name. I'm sorry if your feeling this way because you weren't chosen as the leader.

  6. I am very nervous. I hope everything will be ok! We are in good hands though, and we do have a very good leader. I just like to think that auntie will be here soon to save me!
