we just our 3 hour tour of the centre and now it's time for lunch.the food here is all healthy,I guess they want us to look next to perfect if we volunteer for the games after all we will be representing the district.today I begin training programme for the games in which I actually may not even participate in, had to give up regular school,can look forward to five thirty starts pretty much everyday but one,have to start living up to my brothers reputation and now I'm faced with the magnificent problem of finding a decent place in this ridiculously oversized cafeteria! oh the joys of district two.

"Hey Blondie"  I hear a scrawny brunette boy shout as I walk past the table he is sat at."Hello" I respond trying to pass with ease.I hate bullies."I heard a rumour you're Ricks little bro,is that true?" ofcourse,I should have known!  my brother the famous Rick.stupid family, I guess I will just slip in with the popular small minded kids,maintain the family reputation. "ugh yeah that's him, I'm better though.Rick doesn't exactly have perfect aim" I tell the bully with a forced smug smile on my face. if I come across just like them then I can be sure to be noticed promptly. I can go to the games and show everyone just what I can do."I see I see.im Bailey,why don't you take a seat? you can't fight against your place in society Blondie,its biology" he replies as he gestures for me to sit down. I wouldn't call it biology but its not  time to stand up to Rick and this bully yet. All in good time Cato all in good time I tell myself, soon enough your life will fall into place.
