Conch Shell


The conch symbolizes respect, civilization, and attentiveness. The conch is important because the kids are out of control without an adult or guardian. Ralph and Piggy use it to call the boys over. In other words, they use the conch to control the kids down. It is used in the beginning in the story when they crash and discover it in the beach.

Now I know where Jack, Ralph, and Simon are going to. They are going to be hunting. Looks like I will just stay here with the little ones. Wow, they aren't back yet. I wonder why they are taking so long to comeback for? They are probably going to have some food when they comeback. It's been more than 3 hours that they left and they are still not back yet. I thought they said they were gong hunting. Does hunting take that long with more than 3 people?

I can't believe what happen last night with the vicious attack they did on Simon. I can't even talk about Simon's death. I wish I could've said something Jack's tribe. This is terrible. Why is Ralph saying that we were participants in the murder of Simon? I can't believe that half of the people on the island joined Jack's tribe after what happened last night. OMG! We are being attacked by Jack's hunters. Why did they take my glasses? I know why. They took my glasses because they are going to make fire and they need my glasses to focus on the fire. I am going to get my glasses back tomorrow.

I did not get my glasses back from Jack yet. I can barely see anything around me. How am I supposed to get my glasses back if I can't even see where I'm walking to? These people on this island are out of control. I am going to try to remind them of the rules that we agreed to in the beginning of this meeting. Nobody is listening to me! I can't do this anymore! OMG! There is boulder that is going to hit me! Owwww! The conch! I broke the conch shell! I am bleeding rapidly and loosing strength. I can't, I can't...
