I find myself staring up at a tall grey building surrounded by hundreds of other children that live in my district.some shout and scream, others just look like they are about to throw up.I want to take it all in, to remember exactly how it felt the very first time I set eyes on the training centre.it doesn't work. I decide I can't possibly contain my excitement for any longer and head on inside.

I've never seen anything like it.it almost looks bigger on the inside than the out."wow" I hear another boy say "it's even better than I imagined".I can't help but smile, I know exactly how he feels.

I see a tall muscular built man head towards us all."New children this way please" he says and just like sheep we all follow.A million thoughts race through my mind.what are we doing? where are we going? who is this man? just to mention a few.before I know it I find myself standing in the centre of a gym with every other 13  year old in district 2.

I look around to take it all in and spot different stations all around me, target boards,knifes,spears, the lot.you name it they had it.I couldn't wait to get started.

"Alright listen up newbies" the tall man shouted "this gymnasium will be where you come 6 days a week from now on. you will learn skills that will make the difference between life and death.my colleagues and I will teach you everything we can to help you to train to the best of your ability.To stand a chance of winning the hunger games".
