How to make a person smile

HELLO, MY POTATOES! Potato Girl here with another blog for you. This is a blog on how great it is to have friends around you, even if they make weird catch phrases.

A girl comes to you, and you look at her. She is short, with bone straight brown hair. She's slightly chubby and is only wearing a simple t-shirt with ripped jean shorts. The girl looks straight at you with a bored expression and starts to read her fanfiction. You both are on a bench at school, and lunch has just started. You stare into the green field in front of you and look back at the girl. You whisper,"That story is pretty lit." The girl stares at you with wide eyes, and then she smiles back. "It looks like you made me laugh again SaVeon." It was a good day.

Symbolism on the Human Insects

Humans are weak in many ways. They work as tiny ants, and their homes are in one place they call the ant pile, that pile is what we call Earth. We are so tiny, so oblivious to the world around us, that we never see what's coming until it squishes us like a human foot. We are also like spiders. Humans are also easily tempted, that we want to grab the spider's thread to take us away from the dark hole that is our problems. Humanity wants to run away from the problems, and that's where we make the mistakes. We also can be easily broken by feeling. We are like a beehive, so tightly fit and so well organized. But when a bear comes and wrecks the hive, all the bees are flying around in utter chaos. Humans are so weak, as well as the huge mudball we stand on. At any time anything could happen, all because we humans are the helpless insects we are.

The Lord of the Flies' appearance

A scene that you should remember when reading this book is when Simon goes crazy and sees the LOTF for the first time. You should notice the LOTF is a pig on a stick because pigs are mentioned frequently in the story. For example, the pig being killed in the first story by Jack causes disorder to happen within the tribe. And raping the pig before they slice her head off causes insanity within Jack's new tribe. And finally, Piggy dying in the later chapters symbolizes all order and rules on the island vanishing and true chaos coming to take Ralph. So Pigs are pretty much the embodiment of insanity within the story. So for the title of the story to be the name of a pig on a stick is HUGE, because it foretold many other deaths to happen.

I believe the scene where Simon meets the LOTF is important because the pig says he will always be with him and the boys. Since he represents insanity, that's a bad thing. He also told Simon to NOT go and tell the boys of the truth on the island, or he will die. But Simon went anyways and he was killed by insanity, literally.

Sister Location Pt. 3

      You are back in your chair in the factory, the elevator pulling you down to your floor. You're in a weird room, though, with a huge silver fan in front of you with tiny puppet dolls hanging from the ceiling. You are sent to the rusty room, resembling that of the Horror attraction at Fredbear's. You crawl through the vent to a new room, where wires hang from the ceiling like vines, and robotic voices come close to you. You find yourself in front of a console, and you press the red button. A squeaky voice rings throughout the room, like that of a little child. You remember the poster by the shiny fan. There was a blue bunny that could extract itself from Funtime Freddy. So the voice was Funtime Bonnie. Bonnie's voice seems to draw the robots somewhere else. The guide voice from the ceiling says you can leave now.

      You come through and find yourself in the Circus Gallery. The lights suddenly turn off, and Baby speaks to you. You immediately crawl under the desk. Baby continues to speak and come closer to you. She says that there was one day when she was onstage. There were children that would come and go. 2, 3, 4, 2, 3. She was once covered in glitter, and she smelled birthday cake everywhere. There was something special she could do. Baby had the power to make ice cream. But whenever she made ice cream, children started to disapear. 5, 4, 3, 2, 1. The child was a girl, she was slightly scared of the robot, and Baby didn't know why. As the girl came closer, Baby was suddenly unaware of herself. She opened her stomach, and then there was red ice cream everywhere. More children came in, and the ice cream painted the walls in red and pink. Baby was scared, but she wanted to know why it happened. Why did the children stop laughing? Thus the 3rd night ended.

The Horrors of LOTF: Chapter 8 Analyze and Response.

I'm going to analyze when Ralph thinks of a better childhood.

Ralph was by the river, thinking about his situation probably. He suddenly came across a couple of thoughts. This led to him maturing, to making him think about the cruelty and copying another person being what life is today. He thought about the past when he and his ex-friends once had fun on the island. They were once happy here, but now it's gone. Ralph then snapped back to reality to look down on himself. He looked down at his filthy clothes and thought that a bath would be nice once in a while.

This passage is important to the book because it signifies that the boys were once all together and unified. They were all happy, thinking that the world couldn't stop them from making their own decisions. But now that the book has taken a dark turn, I think the author decided to make one last happy flashback to see the difference of the before and now. I think the author wants us to see how the boys used to be, so we can understand the difference when we get into later chapters.

Sister location pt. 2

Hey, you guys! It's Potato Girl here with the next part of sister location. Hope you guys enjoy and make sure to comment down below what to blog about next.

You come back to the factory for more working. This, the voice is an angsty teen voice due to some glitches. That was incredibly funny for some reason. Anyways, you crawl through the vents to the circus gallery. The voice tries to speak to you about Circus Baby, saying that she's the main animatronic here in the factory. But then the voice disappears, and Circus Baby's catches your attention. She says that a night guard before you made a hiding place under the desk in front of you. She also says that someone is coming, so you better hide.

You crawl to under the desk and wait for the intruder to leave. Suddenly, something is pulling at the cover, trying to expose you. You pull at the cover, and the mystery intruder leaves. You climb out from under the desk, and Baby speaks to you again. She says that the voice is going to speak to you again, to run as fast as you can from Ballora. But she also says that the voice is lying, and that Ballora can sense your movements. What you have to do is to move as slowly as you can it to the exit and you will be just fine. You do what she says and you survive. Your shift ends and you go home with your popcorn and your chessy vampire cartoons.
