Free Post: Free Posts


Free posts are one of the many "topics" that we blog about for our English class. They give us an opportunity to write about anything we want. Most would think that it is easy to think of a topic, and maybe it is, for them. But I usually struggle for a minute or so and just think about what to write about. So that's why my topic for this free post is literally just free posts themselves.

    I like the simplicity of your post. I also sometimes struggle with coming up with a topic too.

LOTF Response

Analyzed Section: Piggy's Death(180-181) Right before Ralph hears the rock, while everyone is shouting and arguing, the narrator focuses on Piggy for a split second, saying "By him stood Piggy, holding out the talisman, the fragile, shining beauty of the shell." This sentence shows how in the midst of all the chaos and anger, the conch and all of its order is still there. But then after the conch is "shattered into thousands of tiny fragments", all of the peace and order was lost. And Piggy, the only one who still believed in the conch, had been destroyed just like the conch. Another thing to note right before Piggy's death is how personification is used when describing the boulder rolling down the mountain. The passage goes, "... and he flung himself flat while the tribe shrieked." This pronoun, (his), can be seen as the rock being the beast, or maybe the boulder is just being used like this for no reason. The final thing that will be analyze

Interesting Things in LOTF

While reading "Lord Of The Flies" , I have found some things that are very interesting and very puzzling. So, to start things off, the interesting things. Probably the most fascinating part of this book is how these boys managed to stay alive this long. These are just 12 and 6 year old boys who did things like sing in choirs before the crash. Another interesting thing is the way Jack is becoming crazy. I find it intriguing to read these chapters nd slowly watch him transform and only Piggy has really taken note of it. Now onto the puzzling things. By far the most puzzling part of the book is how Piggy is treated. He is the smartest kid there and is treated no better than the littluns. I do believe that he will eventually become valuable to everyone there, but so far he just gets bullied and people steal his ideas. The last thing I have to point out is how the "hunters" are all following Jack when trying to kill pigs, and only Simon and Ralph are doing important t

What was your most precious childhood possession?

Right after I saw this option at the top of the list I knew I had to respond to it. My most precious childhood possession, or possessions, would have to be my "silkies." My silkies were two small blankets I've had since I was born. One was red and made of smooth silk, while the other was made of a slightly tougher fabric. I would always sleep with my silkies and ring them on trips. I would even walk around with them occasionally. I really loved bringing my silkies everywhere I went and, as said earlier, I brought them on trips. So when my family and I were going on a cruise to Alaska, I brought my silkies. Sadly, I don't remember this trip too well, but I do remember crying at my house when I realized I left my silkies somewhere on that cruise ship the day we got back home. Luckily, my grandma and aunt were generous enough to go and have the silkies remade the exact same.
