Authors note This is purely fanbase. (Shae is the fan). None of these events have occurred. Prologue I walked into the band room, knowing what was going to happen. We were going to get new music. But what I didn’t expect was going to happen was the cute boy who played the bass drum to be moved to the pit. And that is when I fell in love. UN “Hey Simon,” I said, blushing, trying to hide my feelings. “What’s up Jeremy?” He replied as if he didn’t know. My heart started to beat a little faster. I pulled him away from his friends and looked at him seriously. “I… actually have something I have to ask you.” I could feel myself reddening. I couldn’t take much more of this. “W-…. Will you go out with me?” I could tell my face was as red as it …show more content…
I picked him up from his house late one afternoon on a cold December day. When we got there, we got a private booth for two. “I am really happy you’re here Simon. I have waited for this day for a long time. I am glad it is finally happening…” I said as the waiter interrupted. “What are two handsome young men doing here on such a beautiful day? Never mind that, my name is Ben, I will be your waiter. What can I get started for you? “We both ordered Dr. Pepper. “If you need anything. And I DO mean ANYTHING, call me. I will be right back with your drinks.” He winked at us as he walked away. What a …show more content…
It’s our first date. Please, don’t interfere, “I looked at him with puppy dog eyes, then continued, “ Please.” He walked away, embarrassed, without even asking what we wanted to eat. I already knew though. I wanted to eat…two teabags and a spitroast, with a creampie to finish. Simon called a waiter, and he ordered Crispy Fiery Pepper Crispers, with an extra-long corn on the cob. I ordered Big Mouth Bites. When the waiter walked away, we both started laughing. When the food arrived, we quickly ate and paid, giving a one cent tip, because the waiter was a disgrace. When we walked outside, Simon said, “Thanks for taking me. It was fun, except for the first waiter.” I saw him shiver, as we walked to my car, I gave him my jacket. He smiled, and kissed me on the cheek. I stopped, and stood there, trying to get back to my senses. I stepped into the road to cross the street to get to my car, when I was ran over, and flew maybe ten feet. When I hit the floor, I immediately passed out.
My Essay is about Ralph and and his Motivation’s and did he contribute to the tragedy in any way. Also about if he prevented any of the deaths and what would I have done differently in his situation. I defend Ralph’s actions as leader, He had tried his best but everyone fell apart. Did Ralph contribute to the tragedies? Ralph had tried his best but he was struggling at handling the problems on the island, He was unaware of the boy’s and what was going on. He had tried to contribute to all of the tragedies but there was too much going on around him it was just hard. What was wrong with Ralph too was that jack ignores everything and try’s to do his own thing the whole time instead of working together with everyone. All Jack wants is his way or his way to him there is no other way. So yes Ralph had try to contribute to the tragedies but Jack and other boys had just did what they wanted to do instead of doing what they should have done. So Ralph had really struggled dealing with everybody. In my opinion Ralph was doing a good job, Yes he kind of gave up for a little b...
When the boys first arrived on the island, their behaviour was civilized and they attempted to convince themselves that they would soon be rescued by their parents. As the days passed, the boys began to open their eyes and realized that sitting around was not going to benefit them in any way, and most importantly it would not help them survive. Because of their new unrestricted life on the island, the boys become ruthless and replaced their previous identity.

Amongst the boys which have be stranded on the coral island, There is one certain character, a character that is different from the rest of the boys, a character which is wise and understanding but most of all importance a character with a symbol. This character is Simon. He is one of the most symbolic characters from the beginning to end.
When people are suppressed, their tolerance reaches a breaking point which can lead to lashing out or the destroying of a society. In Lord of the Flies by William Golding, the character Piggy snaps at Jack after he was disrespectful and not giving him the opportunity to talk when he holds the honored conch. Throughout the book, Piggy is constantly being harassed and disrespected by his peers because he was different. Piggy becomes exasperated due to the way everyone had been treating him, and it wasn't surprising when he lashed out on Jack. ISIS, an Islamic terrorist group founded in 1999 by Abu Musab al-Zarqawi, is another example of how suppression can only silence for so long before a stronger force rebels against it. For instance, a
Goldings ideology is first shown through the character Piggy’s attitude and mindset. Piggy has demonstrated that he is the most mature out of all the boys through the way in which he expresses himself and the concern that he has towards the boys’ needs. This statement is supported by Piggy’s statement “ ‘Like kids!’ he said scornfully ‘Acting like a crowd of kids’ ” (pg.38). Here Piggy demonstrates a part of him that makes him bitter and rude. Although Piggy is a kid himself, he gets upset at the boys on the island and yells out “like kids”. This statement shows that Piggy believes that he is superior to the boys on the island and believes that they should
How are the characters of Ralph, Jack and Piggy established in the opening chapters of the novel Lord of the Flies At the start of the novel we learn that during a nuclear war, there was an atomic explosion. Many boys were evacuated on an aircraft with a detachable passenger tube. They were flying over tropical seas via Gibraltar and Addis Ababa when the tube was released and crashed-landed in the jungle of an island. The aircraft flew off in flames and overnight the remains of the tube were swept out to sea in a storm.
“Do not deprive each other except perhaps by mutual consent and for a time, so that you may devote yourselves to prayer. Then come together again so that Satan will not tempt you because of your lack of self-control” (New International Version, Cor. 7.5). This quote shows you need more than one person to stop the temptation of the devil or the Lord of the Flies. In Lord of the Flies by William Golding the only boy still leaning toward being civil is Ralph. He shows how all of the other boys have fallen under the influence of the Lord of the Flies. The Lord of the Flies can be interpreted as a religious, specifically biblical, allegory. More specifically, the Lord of the Flies represents the devil and, by extension, the evil that resides in
A group of kids got stuck on an island after their plane got shot down and they all have many different personalities. Being stuck on an island usually brings out the worst of people.But, there were two characters in novel, “The Lord of The Flies” that had good morals. These two characters were Ralph and Simon. Ralph and Simon weren’t intimidated by not having any adults around, instead, they tried to bring out the best of themselves and not take part in any horseplay the rest of the boys did.
Do you believe when people are born, they are born with a blank slate? An English philosopher named John Locke believed that people are born with a blank slate and we acquire ideas from our environment and the people that influence us. In the book “Lord of The Flies” by William Golding it shows us that everyone has evil inside of us and even children can do things that we will not expect they would do. Jack Merridew was a good example because he represented evil in the novel he turned savaged and let the evil inside of him take over his actions and these actions impacted other characters. Jack Merridew let his anger toward Ralph change him and also him wanting power and being the leader of them.
“The duty of the youth is to challenge corruption,” Kurt Cobain once said. The Lord of the Flies tells a fictional story of a group of kids whose plane crashes on an island. Among these boys is Jack, a choirboy who is eager to hunt and create laws. However, in Lord of the Flies, the character Jack shows himself to be an arrogant tyrant because throughout the novel he acts in a way that is cruel, evil, and violent.
Importance of Leadership Leadership is something that stands out in people. In a group, people tend to look for the strongest person to follow. However, the strongest person may not be the best choice to follow. In Lord of the Flies by William Golding, Ralph and Jack each have leadership qualities. Jack is probably the stronger of the two; however, Ralph is a better leader.
And the older of the two waiters could be the embodiment of the old man in his favorite version of himself, calm and collected. This would explain why the waiter is so defensive of the young waiter’s rude comments and his deep understanding of the old man and his life’s details. The story points out many similarities between the old man and the older waiter’s personality. They both enjoy well-lighted cafes over bars, the nighttime when no one else is awake and bothering them, and they both exhibit the same
“The world is a dangerous place, not because of those who do evil, but because of those who look on and do nothing.” - Albert Einstein. According to William Golding, “Every single one of us could be Nazis”, and he believed that all humans have the capacity to be evil. In his book Lord Of The Flies, he writes about a group of British schoolboys whose plane is shot down over the Pacific Ocean and in which the pilot (and the only adult aboard the plane), is killed. All the boys survive the crash and find themselves on a deserted island, where they are alone trying to survive by themselves.
