Blog 1-The meeting

The crash was just a few hours ago, but it felt like years ago. I was fine except for a few bumps and bruises. All I remember was getting jumbled up in everyone's belongings as the plane crashed, I quivered at the thought of what might have happened to the others. I decided to go look for the other survivors on the island, if there were any. I clambered down the small cliff I was on and went into a forest to try to get to the other side of the island, at least I think it was an island. There were a bunch of vines coming down from the trees, I felt like it was a grating. When I finally got out of the vines I came to an open space in the forest. The trees were abundant with fruit. I brought down about 7 bananas and I was so hungry I devoured them all. As I finished eating, I heard a strident noise from the left, and ran as fast as I could in hope of finding other survivors. As I got closer to the edge of the forest I heard a clamor of boys' voices. When I got out of the forest I saw a group of boys around one boy blowing into a shell. Next to him was a decorous chubby boy who was sitting everyone down. They were all gathered by the lagoon. I sat down with the other boys and waited to hear what they said. Then, a group of boys in uniforms vainly interposed into the crowd. Suddenly, one of the uniformed boys turned pallor and fainted. One of the boys sat him down to let him rest. The leader of the uniformed boys didn't seem to care and talked about needing a leader for the survivors of the plane. He told the crowd that he should be the leader, but they decided to vote. Everyone speculated over who should be leader but most of voted on Ralph and he became the leader. Ralph became our leader. Jack seemed to have a look of indignation because of this decision. I hope there is not a lot of fighting while were on this island. I also hope someone finds soon...
