The 100th Annual Hunger Games Quarter Quell: District Revenge

Authors Note ~ 5

Nobody kill me! Yes I am aware of the fact that I've been MIA for over 6 months. As a book obsessive I've literally lost books mid climax or rising action and it drove me INSANE when I find the novel months later. So trust me, I can understand the frustration of 10.4k people right now. If I were you I'd report my Wattpad account due to the neglect I've been giving my readers but I have some valid excuses that aren't acceptable but I'll just tell you guys anyways :)

Excuse #1: As many of you Wattpaddies know, I do beauty pageants.. yuck right! But yes I've been competing non stop this summer as well as during the fall and winter. "So Ardelle, how has that made you incredibly busy that you can't even update a Hunger Games chapter every once in a while?" Hey I'm glad you asked! For starters I'm in the gym 247. I literally have to walk onstage in a bikini wearing six inch heels so I'd prefer to look like I don't eat tator tots and pepperoni pizza bites all day (Which I totally do). I won a pageant in September, for Miss FT.Meade Maryland (Ft.Meade is the army based city in Maryland) and I've been swamped with apperances: Riding in parades, modeling/fashion shows, pictures, dinners, charities, fundraisers, volunteer work ect.. Updating my Hunger Games Fan Fic was not a priority so sorry guys! And I've honestly been working my butt off as I prepare for Miss Maryland in February so I can become Miss Teen United States and rule America! Ha!

Excuse #2: I'm failing the eleventh grade! Awesome right? But no seriously I have no Idea how I literally almost had a 3.0 and now I'm at a 1.5. I don't know what happened. I'm fixing this horrible issue right now.

Excuse #3: I joined a dance team! Well not anymore, I quit last week. But I tried out for my High School dance team and made it of course, so I've been crazy busy with that. I recently quit only because I disagreed with the captain on ALLOT of things and I just could'nt fit dance practice in my crazy unorganized schedule. I make myself sound super busy.. because I am basically.

Excuse #4: Allot of my friends know this but of course they don't really care.. well then they aren't true friends but that's another story for another time. I'm actually really depressed. Not that I have anything to be depressed about. I believe I'm awesome asf but hey, there are people that bring me down everyday and destroy all my dreams and aspirations. I start to get self doubt allot and with self doubt comes the infamous question of "Am I good enough for society?" I literally had to delete my Twitter and make a new one due to the mean comments and negativity I kept receiving.

Excuse 5: I started an Awareness.. What? Yeah I know crazy. As I'm vying for the spot of Victor in the Miss Maryland pageant, I wanted to up my game up and now I have my own Pageant Platform. My platform is Cyberbullying and Suicide Prevention among young girls. I can totally relate to this platform because I was cyberbullied ALLOT which lead to this never ending depression then suicidal thoughts and BAM I tried to die multiple times in 2014. I know I'm such a buzz kill. My awareness is called Crown My Confidence; which is also the name of my pageant blog (another thing that's made my life crazy busy). Crown My Confidence is basically an Awareness for Suicidal teens due to bullying in school and online. Pageants saved my life and gave me the confidence that I needed to keep moving forward. Thus "Crown My Confidence". It really pin points my advocacy and everything I live for.

So those are my lame excuses, I'm hoping you guys can forgive me.. I apologize and I PROMISE to update soon!! Whenever I get the chance! So please keep reading, commenting, and liking! It means allot to have support!
