Blog 1- The first day
When I woke up from the fall, I was caught in a tree, it seemed like a grate was over me.. I carefully clambered down and looked around for the other kids. I sat down and pondered the bright sun was blocked by the giant palms. I started to think "Where is everyone? Are they okay? Is anyone else alive?" My thoughts were interrupted by clamor. It sounded like a horn. I ran toward it, but was stopped by my hunger. I quickly found a mango and devoured it. Then I started to run again. I heard the noise again and quivered at the thought of what it could be. I kept going though, hoping it to be the other kids. When the blasts became louder i slowed down, seeing a giant lagoon before me. I walked toward to kids talking and interposed because I saw a stand. It wasn't really a stand, but a platform. I approached the platform and the strident sound became louder. As I came up to the platform I saw a jumble of kids sitting down below another boy with a shell in his lap. He seemed decorous. We all sat watching the boy, who now I know is Ralph. After everyone came or what we thought was everyone, Ralph stopped blowing the shell. Soon another group of boys appeared one was very vain. They all wore cloaks. Then one of the boys became pallor and started to quiver, after that he fainted. We all talked and decided that we needed a chief. We all speculated about this for awhile. It was a tie between Jack the leader of the cloaked boys and Ralph. We took a vote and Ralph won. Jack looked he had indignation. I voted for Ralph because he seemed like a strong leader that would make all the right choices. After Ralph was elected, Ralph said that jack could be the leader of the cloaked boys. they would be the "hunters." Then they set out on a expedition to explore the island. I was scared and happy. I didn't know what to feel, I mostly just missed my mom and dad....
