LOTF reading response



     In Lord of the Flies, everything seems to be progressively getting worse. When they showed up on the island everyone thought that they were going to have fun and be friends and the conch would help them maintain everything. Now there is violence among the group. There is dissension into separate groups. No one cares about the rules of the conch anymore. The recognition of littluns is also deteriorating.

     Jack in particular has completely lost all respect for order and for the conch and is really the reason for all of the things above. He always takes the conch from people or he speaks without it. He doesn't care about the rules and said "Bollocks to the rules." Jack and Piggy's relationship has gotten worse and turned violent when Jack broke his glasses and attacked him. Jack also jokes about the killing of the littluns and his jokes have gotten progressively worse over time. Jack seems to be bent on ruining their chances of survival.

        Thanksgiving break can be so annoying. We have so much homework and it stresses me out the entire break. I wish we could have a whole break with no homework. But I guess that is just too much to ask for. I get that we need to keep our minds refreshed sometimes but we get so much homework it does so much more than that.        Thanksgiving is also just not my favorite holiday in general. We have to all just sit together and eat and it is so boring. Thursday was definitely my least favorite day of the break. It isn't my moms favorite holiday because eating food we don't especially like isnt our favorite pastime. So this holiday gets on my nerves.

Vocabulary free post

     The past few basketball seasons for LSU have been pitiful. That is why I was so excited when Will Wade was hired for the head coaching job. This makes me feel like it is inevitable that we will soon be good. Maybe in two years maybe in 5. Ben and I would go to the LSU basketball games even when we were bad such as last year. Now that we have landed some great recruits, it is time to muse the possibilities of us being a championship team in the near future.      I am looking forward to this basketball season alot more now as we are going to be a lot better. The first game is this Friday and we can't wait. I especially can't wait for the SEC opener against Kentucky which is always really hype and fun. I can't wait for this season as a whole.

LSU beats Florida

     Florida is one of the teams that I just can't stand. Their football team is bunch of arrogant guys who have more attitude than talent. I've been waiting for this game ever since last year when we lost on the 1 yard line. Watching the game this year I was so nervous and I just wanted us yo win so bad. We went up by 14 and I thought that we were just going to win like that and then before you know it it's 17-10 and they are driving down the field.      Then they scored and I started to think that we were going to lose. But then all of a sudden they missed the extra point and I felt rejoiced. We went on to win the game and I was so happy that even though Danny Etling had a terrible game, we still won. I was the happiest ever after an LSU game besides Alabama games when we win. Revenge has been served.
