If I were to try to compare myself to any of the characters in this book it would be on Piggy. I believe my personality closely resembles Piggy's because I tend to take "thought out" actions in response to several situations. Although one very distinct way I am different from Piggy in this aspect is that I often take a very "care free" approach towards life. In the book it is seen that Piggy symbolizes the scientific aspect of our society and he often pushes for efficient and necessary actions to help improve the boys chances of survival, such as building a shelter. I too would have done a similar action versus getting caught up in making fire.
Another way I could possibly resemble Piggy is our approach to confronting problems. Throughout the book Piggy is often called names and teased but he endured the bullying and decided not to resent them because he knew that their survival on the island also depended on his intellect. I would also confront many problems like this, the "forgive and forget" method which we have discussed at some point in class before. I would make it my goal to try and not "dislike" people who had acted rudely to me and forgive then forget. I find this method particularly suitable to me because my personality is not very aggressive. (Btw it's 11:26pm right now WOOT WOOT >:D )
