Pre-Trial for court Yuki R.

Nov. 5 2009

"Three more days, two more days, one more day, and eventually that court day came. I have nervous like heck"

I am court reporter and I have to say, my job does seems really hard, but I have confidence that I will win because I do not have to type all the words they say, which really helps and that have to only get the basics. Now if I had to get word by word, then we would have a problem. I personally think that not everyone is ready, but some are. Filming everyone is really hard because they easily get off task. I really can not wait until I go to the court house, because its in downtown and I love downtown. I feel very confident that the defense will win the trial, because they are much more prepared compared to the defense. There arguments are much more professional soundings. So basically they got to there point. While the prosecuting attorneys improvises a lot and get off topic. I believe everyone is going to get nervous because off the high-pressured situation and the fact that its in an real court room in a real court house. I know I will be nervous, because I have never been in court in my life and judges are intimidating. In total I hope that this will be a experience rich with fun and learning and hope everyone feels that way. And that for those who are court reporter, it is really not that bad.

Trial Yuki Rosby

November 5, 2009

"After almost an hour after typing I thought my fingers were gonna bleed. My fingers will never forgive me"

I was surprised at the outcome of the trial because I would of thought that Jack was innocent and feel that they only chose him as guilty because of what they know. The prosecutors were much more convincing compared to the defense attorney. I really think the jury made a bad choice on this case. I was surprised at how easy it was, I thought it would be hard to catch up and I would hold everyone up, but {hurray} I didn't. I feel I was able to get 94-97% of the words. At one point a persecutor asked me to repeat what he said. When he said this I was sweating and didn't quite comprehend it for a few seconds. But after those seconds passes I was quickly looking for the last line and finally found it, phew what a relief! other than that no one asked me to read back the transcript, thankfully. My favorite part of this entire event was when we sat out side the court room waiting for permission to go inside to see the cold dark manslaughter case. When I looked out side I was the bustling city of "The real word". I could see taxi, buses and trucks walking by. It was a peculiar view of downtown and an even stranger view seeing streets below me.In all this has been a rewarding experience full of joy, laughter, and intense moments, and regret nothing at all.

Chapter 12: Cry of the Hunters

Ghost of Piggy

Oh my go I'm dead! whoa is me! I can't Believe those savage bastard killed me! All I wanted was my glasses. If I was alive I oughta sock him in the mouth. I feel really bad for Ralph, Because now he has to deal with him all by him self. Someone oughta punch Jack in the face. I saw Ralph hid in the bushes which was a good idea, But Sam'n'eric gave him away so it was hopeless, but at least they gave him meat to eat. And besides they were forced to join Jacks tribe. Now Roger has a problem for sure, carving a double-point spear to put on Ralph head, Yikes. I was real happy when they got rescued but Percival couldn't remember his name which I thought was funny actually. And whats even more funny is that the naval officer was disappointed in the boys. To bad Jack lost his leadership at the end.. Im just kidding I was extremely happy

CHAPTER 11 CASTLE ROCK

 1- In the beginning of the chapter, what does Piggy tell Ralph to do with the conch?

       - Piggy tells ralph to blow the talisman conch as loud as he can so the others know of his presence 

2-What reason will Piggy give Jack for the return of his glasses?

     - To tell them that stealing is not right and that this was not a game

3- What does Ralph declare their appearance will be when they approach Jack?

       -  Ralph says that they will look nice and clean, like civilized people. Unlike Jack and his truculent tribe

4. Who challenges the boys on their approach to Castle Rock?

      - Roger and a cordon of people challenges Ralph while on there way to meet Jack

5. When Jack appears, what has he been doing?

      -  Ralph came to jacks fort while, he was out hunting pigs

6. What does Ralph call Jack that provokes a fight?

     - Ralph calls Jack a theft which caused the tribe to ululate with anger, and makes Jack look like a diddle

7. What happens to Samneric after the fight?

        - Sam'n'Eric are forced to join jack tribe (they don't want to but there tied up)

8. What is Roger doing during Piggy’s plea for a return to decency?

 - Roger is throwing stones at piggy while he pleas

9. Write a STRONG PARAGRAPH about who is responsible for Piggy’s death and why.

I think Jack killed piggy because Jack is the leader of the tribe and He was the one who got them all pumped up on adrenaline. Jack started the savagery ways and is considered the evil in this book After he fell to his death, Jack felt no remorse, he only mentioned the conch, and said that he'd done that on purpose planned the death of Piggy, maybe even was happy that it'd happened. Plus, Jack refused to ask for help, all he had to do was ask Ralph for fire and it would have gladly been given. Ralph said, "If you'd asked for fire I would have given it to you." Instead he stole Piggy's glasses, blinding him, and forcing him to march to Castle Rock a dangerous place for a healthy man. Jack was the one that came up with the rock that guarded the bridge, even though it was unnecessary. Jack was the one that told Roger to stand guard, even saying, "Why are you down here?" When Roger came down after Piggy's death and Ralph. What kind of leader would put a boy that likes to throw things in charge of a giant rolling stone? You'd know that he could easily become delirious, and lose control. The role of watchman was unneeded before and especially after Piggy's death. In short, it's Jack's fault, he tried to be a leader just by bossing them around and not by thinking, he practically set up the board and all Roger needed to do was flip a switch

Chapter 10: The shell and Glasses

The Shell And Glasses

We'll since I'm dead I've decided to stick around to see how everyones doing and boy can I say, they are all miserable, sad and most of all crazy. Have you seen jack and his coco rules. Guard the fort, attack Ralph's camp and on and on and on. His rules are almost a boring as Ralph's, But at least his made sense. Jacks doesn't make sense at all. And speaking of Ralph and jack, The jerk Piggy claims Jack accidentally killed me!. Our you crazy Piggy? He physically touched me and jabbed, scratch and bite me. I don't blame anyone else because Jack is in charge of them. I try telling them that the "beastie" is actually a dead aviator and then out of no where he comes and attacks me. I think that guy really lost it, broke his brain or something. Now Piggies dead, but I'm not surprised. Jack was always picking on him, If any one was to go first it would obviously be piggy. So lets see what jack caused so far. He viscously beat me to death, He knocked Piggy of a 40 feet cliff, And now hes Trying to murder Ralph, throwing spears at him. How much violence does Jack have to cause. Next thing you know the islands gonna start on fire! Some one better get him in check before its to late.

Chapter 9: A View to a Death

I think it was Jacks fault that Simon died because Jack has the highest influence and because Jack is tribe leader. They chanted "kill the beast, cut his throat, bash him in, spill his blood." Jack got the tribe on edge overflowing with adrenaline, just itching to kill something and Simon was the poor subject. Jack should be charged with a capitol crime. I also think that the tribe is just as guilty as he is, because they also killed him. In total they all should get charged for a capitol crime.

Chapter 8: A Gift for the darkness

I Choose the moment when Jack and his tribe murders a momma pig feeding her piglets then killed and decapitated her in a bright sunny field of flowers. When I imagine this scene I think of a lot of blood and violence. When the author says" The spear moved forward inch by inch and the terrified squealing became a high-pitched scream." I found this part really disturbing almost as when he says," Then Jack found the throat and the hot blood spouted over his hands". I find these part of the story creepy and sad. Also when jack decapitates the pig and puts it on a stick obviously shows that hes mentally insane. He says he was "offering" the pig head to the beast but instead the pig head found Simon who was also on drugs, metaphorically. In total this chapter was like going threw the eighties all over again with people hallucinating and going crazy.

Chapter 7 SHADOWS AND TALL TREES

    Shadows and tall trees

   "Hygiene"

    Perspective: Ralph

   I feel very dirty and can't even stand the sight of the other boys and even me. I need a haircut, my hair is as crusty and greasy as a mop. I need a bath, I smell like a wet dog on a summer day. I miss everyday things now. At first sight you would think that our faces were clean but on second inspection you would notice our faces were clean from constant fresh brine dripping down our faces.

   Today I felt the feeling of blood and living flesh, as I chucked a spear deep into a boar. Also I killed robert "The Boar". Anyways back to the boar, It was an incredible feeling. I could see why Jack likes hunting so much. The power, the rush of adrenaline. "Kill the Pig, Cut the Throat, Kill the Pig, Bash him In" The little Un's are worried about the beast, and so am I now. I saw it, with my own eyes! It was big, and dark. Jack saw it,  Roger saw it, everyone saw it.There was no doubt the beastie is  real

Chapter 6

"beast from the sky"

Perspective: Jack

"The hunt for the bestie"

  Dear Diary

Tim and Eric came screaming back from the signal fire causing everyone to freak out. I 

knew the beast was there but Ralph didn't believe me. He thinks I'm going crazy. The talk of 

the beast was interminable. 

    We had to find it at some point. And I'm glad Ralph came to his 

senses there are many theories as to what the beast is, A leviathan, a flying beast, but what 

ever it is I'll catch it and kill it, just like the pigs. Speaking of pig's Piggy is getting more and

 more on my nerves. Thats why I punched him, wasn't my fault that he wasn't man enough to

 take it. 

      I was really disappointed when we didn't find anything in the rocks. I was really looking

 forward to meeting the beast. Now Ralph is blabbing on and on about the signal fire, which I 

don't think anyone cares about anymore.  The longer I stay here the more I don't mind living 

here. I feel Strong and important here                        

                                                                                                                                    Your friend

Chapter 5: Beast from the water

"The decision"

Simon

Dear Diary,
Today Ralph call a meeting and He went down to business. He talked to us about how he was angry that everyone wasn't doing anything. The little ones were just playing in the sun and that there wasn't any water in the coconut.

He was still even angry that the fire was out. He was blaming everyone except for me, Jack and piggy. Piggy got MEGA punched by Jack and Jack being stupid broke piggy glasses. I think Jack is really mean to Piggy and I really feel sorry for him. Even Ralph doesn't like Jack. you could slice the tension with a knife.

I really hope this ends up better. This island is no gun anymore.

Chapter 4: Painted faces and long hair

 " Jacks Anger"

Dear Diary,

    I feel really stressed from being everyones stress bag. First Ralph gets anger at me because I didn't count all the little uns, which by the way are really useless just running around and playing, and Jack blaming me for no reason. I was okay with him talking smack about me but when he actually smacked me for asking him for food, that got me really angry, It seems like he just picks on me only.

   Im also in charge of the fire now because of Jack and his hunters who can't keep a simple fire going. I just really wished that the boat saw us. I'd be home now and with my auntie, with out a care in the world. Instead I'm here with angry issued Jack and friends.

  The little uns are acting like every thing is all right and that everything will go back to normal. They seem like they don't under stand how serious this is. At least some of them are doing good like the twins who helped Jack hunt. I thought the war paint made him look scary and funny at the same time. I hope it gets better on this island.

                                                                                                                                          your friend,

Chapter 3

Chapter 3: Huts on the beach

"Shelter"

Dear Diary,

I'm still here on this miserable island and it seems I'm the only one who seems to actually want to get off this island. The other kids and piggy are playing around and the hunters don't seem to be doing much, Jack and some of the hunters are going out to get meat, but never actually get the meet.

It seems the only person that's helping is Simon and I feel for him contrite. Jack was rapt, opaque and inscrutable about hunting pigs, next thing you know he'll end up hunting Piggy. It seems like he doesn't even want to leave the island. Me and Simon have been able to make 2 huts on the beach and a crappy third one. It would be a lot easier if the others would help. We need shelter. We need shelter now, for mental and physical reasons. We need shelter to feel safe because the susurration and to be safe from the elements. I hope the kids realize that soon

your friend,
Ralph

Chapter 2

Chapter 2 : Fire in the mountain

"Jacks anger"
Perspective-Jack
Dear Diary,



Today we started a fire and if you ask me it was a total failure and the last thing
I needed was a fat kid telling me it was a major fail. That kid Piggy is getting on my
last straw, stating the obvious, and not counting the children. And by doing that we
may have just burned that kid with a scar that told about the snakes, many have
burned to death. He was in the forest I think when we started the fire.

On top of that the kids are going crazy about the creepers. If the creeper comes
anywhere near us, me and my troops gonna roast that beast. I felt that this entire
thing was a failure and Ralph didn't help much, but in the end I'm glad to be alive

chapter 1

Chapter 1 the sound of the shell
'My time to step up'
perspective-Simon

dear diary, today I went on an expedition to the top of the mountain to see if it was an island. I didn't want to go but I had to because Our leader said so, speaking of which we appointed a new chief.

Some guy named Jack wanted to be chief but we decided to go with Ralph, because he had an conch and he's a really good leader and funny. Plus jack was specious. We walked through thick vegetation and and pulled down rocks! I felt tow as a rock. It was really worth it because of the view. We noticed another island while at the top, wonder what we'll do about it. Ralph suggested making a map, and I proffered making it on wood and I think he really listened. No parents on this island seems like a paradise but I'm beginning to get hungry.

We incredulously found a pig and jack almost killed it but he didn't, kinda surprised seeing as how he's all tough and what not and not to mention that he had a knife with him. This island is really pretty and if we leave I think gonna miss it. Everyone seems nice, although I feel bad for piggy because he couldn't go.

your friend
Simon
