We were working as usual At the factory. As nothing had happened. I threw the metal in the furnace. Looking at the flames, as sweating went down my brow. It burned, it burned, and it burned.

Then I see a face; gasping for help! It's calling out to me, it calls to me. I reached to help them slowly walking forward closer, reaching out my hand getting closer and closer to the person. Moving ever so slightly to the twisting shapes. My coworker stops me. He pointed out to me that my hand was burnt. I didn't feel it at all, but the hot metal that I touched in the furnace. had burned a hole through my makeshift gloves and the heat ate at my hand. My co-worker took me to the factory infirmary. My hand would never heal fully from that moment. However, I moved on went back to work with my hand in bad shape. Later that week
The Pigman was a great book that I even read and I absolutely love reading this book. The Pigman is very different from other books. The book is based on two 15 years olds that are sophomores. Lorraine is more of a proficiency person, with her life and school. She cares about herself she doesn’t like doing drugs or drinking. Unlike John, he likes smoking and drinking and he is always late.

Lorraine’s mom works all the time and is always rude to her. It makes her feel mortified about herself,saying that she is not beautiful and
Many times in a story what the main characters say can reflect their personality and lifestyle. This is shown effectively in the memorial epic by Paul Zindel, The Pigman. Throughout this stunningly truthful story, John and Lorraine consistently say things that show just what type of people they are.

Jack initially coincides with this, as he struggles to kill a pig. However, eventually, the boy’s are able to kill a pig with no remorse, eventually leading them to “raping” a pig. In Lord of the Flies, by William Golding, the deterioration of the boys is shown by the symbolic encounters of the pig, as the boys’ demeanor gradually becomes vulgar.

Humans can be very strange and sometimes cruel. This is illustrated perfectly in William Golding’s Lord of the Flies, a story about a group of boys that are stranded on an isolated island.

The tale of wild boars is about a man that ate a plant to become a pig to lure pigs into a trap for them to be killed since pigs and humans were sworn enemies. It ends with the pigs finding this out and eat all the shapeshifting plants so the man cannot return to his original form. I thought this tale was very accurate to the real happenings in the story. The man tried to conform into something else in order to benefit himself, just like the rebels and villagers in the story. The tale of wild pigs suited the novel very well. The bra spider story was about a spider that tied his webs around his waist in order to go to town to town eating at all the feasts. When the villagers found out the spider was being greedy the villagers pulled his webs

The pigs that did not make it to slaughter are shot with a gun to prevent them from eating the farmer’s feed. Pigs are abused by beating them with a gate rod to be moved from one place to another. Most pigs arrive at the slaughter lame or dead from the crowdedness during transporting. Pigs are electrically shocked to move on the killing floor of the slaughtering
Society today has their dilemma with looks. Yet, LaBute states that the play from “Fat Pig” didn’t happened in real life, but it happens all around the country. the play is about a man and a overweight woman in a romantic relationship. However, The co workers were skeptical about the girl he was with. So, they started to criticize his girlfriend about her size. I believe that the author didn’t state anything from the place since it’s based on society of looks. Where Jeannie was jealous of Tom’s girlfriend because she has a personality, not the look. Then society today always want a charming girl or guy like a celebrity or a model that people wants to be with or to be like that's their preference. Also, I believe that society affects our
