Dear Journal, I remember the plane crash, it was sudden and quick, the plane was going out of control, I was nervous, we was screaming and crying and praying that we all wouldn’t die. When I woke up I was in these scratchy and itchy bushes. There was a fair haired boy who landed close to me who I became friends with. He said that his name was Ralph, I told him that my name was Piggy, he started to chuckle. “Piggy!” he said, I told him if there were any other kids on this island, not to tell them that my name is Piggy, but just make something up.

We weren’t sure of what it was at first but when we got closer to it we realized that it was a conch shell. I was so excited and told him not to drop it or else it might break, we blew it and all of these young boys came out of the woods. We met on the beach and I took everyone’s name, there was these twins named Sam and Eric. Everything that they said the other twin would repeat it, it was
