The hunger games final analysis

The Hunger Games

       “The hunger games” about a girl named Katniss who has just taken the place of her younger sister to go into the games in which she will face off against 23 different people, it’s win or die, and Katniss struggles with, burns, daedly stings, and emotional torture throughout the book.

The hunger games was a very interesting book, not only was it a great story but it also related to many things in today’s world, and to things of the past.

            The first thing I see similar to history in the Roanoke colony, compared to District 13 in the hunger games, while people of the country know what happened to District 13, it still is wiped off the face of the earth, much like the Roanoke colony.

            The book had a great struggle with Katniss taking her sisters place in the games. She also had the struggle of having to face off with the other boy from her district who had on several occasions saved her life. It becomes a challenge for her to act civil in an interview, and the woods become extremely complicated when the game masters decide to start shooting giant fire balls at her, or when a swarm of killer bees is sitting 15 feet above her head, and the only way to survive is to drop them down on the “Careers” below her. Katniss makes it through all of these struggles with the help of some friends.

            What I liked about the book is that it always had tension that never seemed to subside, and when things started to get boring something always happened. I also liked that fact that there were many twists, and turns throughout the book. There wasn’t much I didn’t like about the book, although the beginning was kind of slow it did give meaning behind the story, the book was very hard to put down and leaves you hanging till the very end, and even then your not sure what to think,

            I would recommend this book to EVERYONE, it’s a great story, and it has a little something for everyone, it will keep you up at night to read, and on the edge of your seat the whole time you are reading.

The hunger games #3 (The winners)

After Katniss, and Peeta win the games, they are going to be sent home, when Peeta confesses that he actually loves Katniss, Katniss doesn't know how to react to this , and begins to freak out a little, thinking to herself how she could not afford to raise children, or get married, even though that would be long after she still worries about it happening now. The book ends on the final note of Katniss, and Peeta waiting to meet the crowed that has been dieing to meet them.

The hunger games #2 (The games)

The games come after all the flashy cloths, and meeting the game master, and all the fancy food. Now it's time for Katniss to get down to business, after coming into a close call in the very beginning, Katniss manages to get off with a bright orange backpack filled with micelanious items she has no time to examine, and a knife in which a girl threw at her, but luckily was able to move the pack in front of, this gives her a weapon, and some misialaneous items. She later finds out the contents of the pack, and sets up camp in a tree, that night someone sets a fire near her, she knows it's one of the obviously unintelligent tributes, and they almost give Kats possition a way to the pack of "Careers" who are killing off all the weak people they can, she finds out the boy from her district is traveling with them and feels betrayed, she is struggling for water, but eventually after she is ignored by her sposer that she needs water, she realizes she was close to water, and they were giving her a message to keep searching. After the dehydration struggle, she is chased down with fire ball being projected by the gamemakers, and she eventually runs into the Careers again and kills to of them, snatching the bow, her favorite weapon she was able to grab at the beginning of the game. In the end they get rid of the food supplys of the careers, and the game masters tell the distrect 12 people told them that they could win as a distrect, but then are changed after they meet up, so they make a plot against the gamemakers so they pretend as if they are going to commit suicide with poison berries, so the game makers delclare them as the winners

The hunger games #1 (The reaping)

The reaping is the day when it is decided who will go to the hunger games weather it be by voulenteering, or by your name being drawn out, Katniss(the main character of the series) chooses to voulenteer after her sister is chosen so that her sister does not have to die in the games in which 24 people compeet for survival in. Katniss takes the risk instead, knowing she is better off than her sister.

Humor

In class we tried our very hardest to recite lines from loves labours lost while keeping serious, while for some this was easy, for others it was very hard. Destractions and laughter made it even harder to accomplish this goal. While the situation its self was humorus the bombast language makes it a little complicated to understand, but watching they play in action helps to understand it much better.

uhhhhh... blarg numba #5

I've always wanted to be a princess, as Ms. A would say Jerriina or however you wanna spell it. The princess recieves a jewel from the king. The princess being her witty self decides to dress up in masks and trick the men into picking the wrong girl to show they are more witty and they proved it to be true.

Loves labours lost #1

From the beginning lines we can see that Loves Labours Lost is going to go all wrong. When have we ever seen a man sign a document saying that he won't converse with women for 3 years? Oh yeah, never! The fact that princess is showing up, and that the king pretty much says he is going to break the oath. Berowne also says that he is having troubles with the oath from the very beginning shows that it is going to go all wrong. A perfect set up to a humorus play

#4

Berowne says that being with the ladies is learning in a way. I think he is just trying to get the point across that it is not wrong to love the women and that it should not be prohibited to see them. He is trying to say that they also need to learn about the women and other things other than the acedemics.

The Last Lecture

The last lecture explains the last months of Randy Pausch's life as he struggles with juggling his homelife, and pancreatic cancer. He also is juggling a lecture that he plans to give his "last lecure" a typical lecture givin by professors to give a speech like it was their last day to live. Only for Randy Pausch it would acctualy be his last lecture. An obvious theme for this book is Death, but i think a better theme would be optimism.

Fearing... Everything

Everyone has fears, but right now I don't exactly talking about phobia's even though Ms. A obviously has a fear of being away from her family. Personally, can we just get rid of mine? :P haha. Anyways the question is why do countries fear other countries. I don't really think it gets more specific than dominationm and destruction. We live in america where we are free to do much more than a lot of other people from other places around the world. Our #1 fear would be to be dominated by one person, and obviously we don't want to die either. I think the reason countries fear other countries is because they know. Lets take America vs. Mexico. If we really wanted to take them over, we could. We're obviously not going to do that, but its still a legit fear if your mexico.

If i was taken away from my friends, and family with no way to talk to them, I would have a mental break down. I think it would be a while before i even spoke to anyone. I don't know how those people who get stranded in the middle an ocean survive I honestly think I would give up too soon. The fact that it is possible that one of these situations to happen kind of freaks me out.

Living Live

I would just like to start off by saying that I am in fact alive, I think... Anywho my live life really doesn't bother me much although i usually pick, and choose what to link to my facebook. I think facebook does give many people a false sense of security, because i know like me. Many people use the same password, or a form of the same password for many things. Recently my email was hacked, and I was givin a virus, and apparently sent a message to my mother, and Ms. A, but thanks to my friend Malware Bytes the virus took a matter of minutes to get rid of. Incidences like this scare me a little. There are people who are out to steal identities, and commit whatever other crazy crimes they dig up. It's not so much that I’m worried about a 'big brother', it more about the people who are smart enough to manipulate the websites we trust all of our personal information to. I think everyone needs to be a little more careful of what they do and say on their computers

Beowulf

We disscussed the difference between a good hero, and a good king. So what exactly is a hero? Someone who is strong? Someone who is smart? How about skilled, noble, and perfect Fabio-esk hair, or maybe just some big ol' brains? If some, or even any of these qualities describe what a hero is, then what is an epic EPIC hero? Are they more skilled, and even stronger? The point was brought up that an epic hero would be remembered forever. If what describes an epic hero is going down in the history books(or in this case a story that no one in there right mind can make any sense of without reading spark notes right after they read), then i believe Beowulf is and always will be the poster child for epic heros. He has courage, pride, skill, and even though we are unsure of his motives at times, he often seems selfless. Beowulf describes almost flawlessly what we descibe as our "perfect hero".
