‪a Few Chapters Into Sunrise On The Reaping And The Conclusion I’m Coming To Is That While Katniss

Dude I said this to my friend the other day, ITS EXHAUSTING AND DEBILITATING I simply cannot do it anymore

i feel sick just carrying on with my everyday life as an american citizen. literally all i can do is watch as our whole country burns down, literally and figuratively.

i want to get my shit together so badly

i also want to just give up

The way that Haymitch talks about food in Sunrise on the Reaping vs the way that Katniss talks about it in The Hunger Games leads me to believe that District 12 got even more starved out after Haymitch’s games. His family is obviously poor, but they still do things like make a cake once a year and buy cheap candy on occasions. Katniss talks about never being able to afford sweets and getting an orange as a special present one time. And her family was better off than most in the Seam. That difference definitely feels like an implication that money and food got even tighter in 12 after Haymitch came home from the Quarter Quell.

I WILL NEVER BE NORMAL ABOUT JEGULUS AND WOLFSTAR

If I’m not sobbing over Sirius and Remus misinterpreting each other’s feelings, am I even reading?

Hello please reblog this if you’re okay with people sending you random asks to get to know you better

I want to write a narrative piece about censorship. When I was younger I thought it was something only in books, I never would have imagined that it would be something I would encounter in my real life. Why do people want to ban books? Books provide knowledge, they help us step into worldly perspectives other than our own. We hear stories, we learn, and we grow.

I read Fahrenheit 451 in eighth grade for the first time, and I was throughly shocked by the content. Why would a society be so afraid of books, and literature that they wanted to burn them. In my fourteen year old brain it felt like an act of immaturity, and completely unnecessary. Let the people read! Let them grow their horizons and read!

It wasn’t until I had read 1984 that I truly began to understand the point of government censorship. When I read Bradbury the year before, I was reading a required book for class, and my brain didn’t think much past the fact that I thought it was wrong. However while reading Orwell I really started to grasp at what was the reason and why it was so wrong that people were banning books.

I’ll probably come back to this later, but I am starting to write a narrative essay on this, and I needed a place to just blurt my thoughts.

But this happened right before I deleted my instagram everyone, this is the best day of my life!

the way haymitch must have seen it as all his ghosts coming back to haunt him at once when katniss walked onto the train with the face of burdock and asterid, the pin of maysilee, the voice of lenore dove, and a background so devastatingly similar to his own. of course sweetheart slipped out. and of course he did everything he could to keep her alive

This is how I feel rereading this fic rn

hi so uhm I just finished pathological people pleaser and I friendly ask to not fucking talk to me
