Today was a very important day.  We have to do individual sessions with the game makers.  Then we receive a score that goes from 1-12.  I know I will at least receive an 8.  But you never know.  We go downstairs into this small waiting room.  Of course I was called first.  I walk into the training room and say "Glimmer, District 1"  I then walk over to the bow and arrow.  I cannot miss every single one like yesterday.  I aim and then I shoot, I hit the outer ring, not bad.  Then i shoot another one. Same place. I did that 5 more times.  Then they said I could go.  I walk out and I feel pretty good.  I wait for Marvel.  He finally walks out and says "I did wonderful."  I congratulate him.  We walk up stairs and sit down and talk strategy with Cashmere and Gloss.  Then the TV turns on.  Caesar Flickerman starts talking about what the training scores are based on. Then he starts "Marvel, with a 9" we start cheering. Then he continues "Glimmer" my heart starts pounding "with a 7" tears filled my eyes.  How could I have done so bad.  Cato and Clove both get a 10.  Then I hear something that makes my blood boil. Katniss Everdeen got an 11. I stomp out of the room. Then I cry myself to sleep.
