Retelling of "Catching Fire"

Author's note: This is my retelling of the book "Catching Fire" the sequel  to "Hunger Games." Please leave a comment down below to tell me what I can improve on. 

Katniss has won the Hunger Games, although she hasn't done it alone. She and fellow district mate Peeta, have both won. Which is against the rules of the annual Hunger Games. Now, the capitol of Panem, (Future North America) sees this as defiance. They seek revenge, but first they give Katniss a chance to fix the problem. In the attempt; she get close but fails. Now the 75th Hunger Games are coming around, and little do Katniss or Peeta know; They will fight in it. Does Katniss become victorious again? Find out if you give "Catching Fire" a chance. 

Conflict Resolution for Catching Fire

Authors note: Here is my conflict resolution for Catching Fire. I worked really hard to make this a quality piece.

In the book "Catching Fire" Katniss is upset about winning the Hunger Games. Although, she should be. She cheated the capitol and now they seek revenge. Katniss has a plan though, she has to get the other 11 districts do believe that she is madly in love with her district mate Peeta. If she can do that, this whole entire mishap will be put to rest. In this book I found 2 types of conflict in this book, person vs. person. and Person vs. Society. If you wonder why it's because Katniss has to get the society to believe she loves Peeta; which isn't easy. And Person vs. Person because she has to fight some capitol guards along the way.

Cause and Effect

The big city, that’s where it happened. It was a very warm yet stormy spring day on April 24th 1999. It was St. Lukes hospital in downtown San Diego. I was born at exactly 8:34 AM. The next three years of my life would take place here.

I would say that a cause and effect of this would be, being born in a very warm climate, it took me a while to switch over to the cooler Colorado and Wisconsin weather. Also San Diego was a big city therefore moving onto smaller city's from the vivd memories of San Diego in my mind was hard.

Try everything!

Author's note: As you will read in this essay I love every food in the world. For people who won't try something because it doesn't look good, are missing out greatly.

Food, what would we do without it? Well, first of all we wouldn’t be here. We need to it to survive. Of of the subject of that there are many different kinds of food! They run in cultures.

Like mexican food for instance consist of a lot of tropical fruits and vegetables, because it is warm there. In Africa there is a lot of meat produced, because of all of the wild animals. All over their world there are different kinds of food though to go through all of them would be madness.

A lot of people like and dislike various foods. In most cases, it’s vegetables. I, on the other hand do not. I could eat any food and love it I am not a very picky eater at all actually, and have very little respect for people that are, if you really don’t like something, that’s fine; but always and i repeat always try it before you deny it. You will have all the respect in the world from me!

Everything has a purpose!

Author's note:Our writing circle group decided to write about animals, I was not fond of the idea, but once I started writing it was actually really fun.

Animals: There are many animals in the world. You all know this of course, but have you ever decided to take a deeper look into it? Like how animals would survive without every single one of their unique traits they all have. Let’s take a look.

The jaguar, have you ever wondered if there is a reason for their black spots, or the tiger with the stripes? Well, there both use their unique bodies for camouflage, for hunting to gather food for them and their youngs. Or like the kangaroo which has a pouch for carrying its young. Every animal has its own different trait to make it one of a kind.

So, next time you think an animal has nothing to it, you really need to think again. Everything has a purpose on this world especially animals.

Outdoors

 Author's note: I was outside yesturday and I noticed. It is so simple yet, so outstanding. I wanted to express my feelings about this, so here it is.




Outdoors

The outdoors is a great place to get work done, peaceful, mind filling and refreshing. There are open fields. Mystical forests and green colorful forests. Anything you could imagine can be out there if you just believe.

There are also dangers to the outside world though, like wild animals and thunderstorms. There kinds of things are why shelter has been invented; like the other day, I saw a snake in my meadow in northern wisconsin so I ran inside, or just yesterday there was a severe thunderstorm so I went inside.

I suppose some people might have allergies too, and that is just a shame, limited to the outdoors for me would be like being limited to oxygen. I wouldn’t be able to survive. So if you love the outdoors with long walks on the beach, playing sports, or just soaking up the sun. You love the outdoors!

 Author's note:This is for an essay due for social studies. I felt I was doing proficient on this essay and decided to also use it for Language arts.

Drilling for oil. Three simple words, but they’re not when you hear all of the crisis and disappointment that these three words have brought us. Not so simple at all. So, Should the United States drill in Alaska? You might say “Why not” or “sure” but, they are not drilling in any ordinary land. It is effecting Alaska's beautiful nature. That is why I definitely don’t support drilling in Alaska!

What does this mean? Well, it would be affecting animals’ habitat and possibly  endangering them. This is a terrible situation and I just wish our country could find somewhere else to drill. Wrecking this amazing state is like a crime or something and that isn't something we can stop.

As the United States we use way more oil than we produce which is really bad considering that it over twice as much! We really need to find a way to get that under control. It is kind of rude to take so much and not give back! That might be a thing that could lead to a war because other countries might get mad at us. Excuse me getting of the topic of Alaska but still I can’t stress that enough! By the way, according to the refuge times. There isn't enough space to drill all of the oil there because of trees and hills in the way of drilling. From that information all I have to say is what's the point?

Something that caught my attention was the history of the refuge and how long its been there that’s why there should be no drilling in Alaska! I don’t support this drilling and never will and from there I will leave you to wonder, Is drilling in Alaska a good idea?
