Our in class assignment for the day was to create a portrait of the character we have chosen. To start of my portrait I pasted a picture of Chunk from The Goonies. I see a lot of similarities between Piggy and Chunk. They both have similar body structures, being fat. I also think they have the same type of personality of being afraid and worrying all the time. Although Chunk has the same body style, he is not as smart as Piggy. In order to turn Chunk into Piggy I drew glasses onto him. This symbolizes his innovation, reason, and overall smartness. Another addition to the photo I made was to paste in a picture of an inhaler. This symbolizes Piggy's asthma. I also compare Chunks truffle shuffle to the events that happen in Chapter 4. After Jack's Hunting success in killing the pig leads to meat, the boys start dancing and chanting phases like "Kill the Pig. Cut her throat. Spill her blood.". During this scene I imagine Piggy dancing with happiness like Chunk doing the truffle shuffle. For now Piggy's hunger will be relinquished.Jack now has control over the boys because he can provide meat/food. I suspect that Jack's kill will induce a power struggles amongst the boys.
Until Next Time
