There are many people that don't like the third book as much as the other two but I disagree. In the third book Katniss goes to District 13 and helps rebel against the capitol. For the past 75 years the capitol has had this thing called the hunger games. They started right after the dark days, which were when the districts first rebelled; this was to show the capitol's power over all of the districts. In the third book Katniss goes to a few of the districts to get them to rebel. Unfortunately she gets hurt and wants to go to the capitol to destroy snow, but Beetee the person who is in charge of her in thirteen says that she has to go through training in order to go. She trains for several days and then her instructor approves her. She gets put into a special squad with other victors that escaped with her from the games. They go to the capitol so they can kill President Snow. Not all of them will live but you'll have to see for yourself what happens at the end. Although the book was easy to read, it was incredibly addicting. I could not put it down once I started reading. The only challenge I had during the book was pushing myself to read through the slow parts in the book. In this book you never know what will happen next. You think one thing will happen and then something else happens instead. This whole book was written in Katniss' point of view. It is like your imagining what she is thinking. I would recommend this book to people who like action at some points but calmer parts at some points as well.

I'm pretty sure that even work is easier than my school I already know what i wanna be involved in when i grow up. I don't get why i can't just go off to college and be on my merry way that definitely sounds good to me. I mean taking art classes can't be that hard can it? anyways I'm sure its gotta be better that taking classes that i wont even need to use like Social Studies and Spanish i guess i might need that but I wish you got to pick all of your own classes in high school just like college then it would make school so much more interesting. I hate all of the stress it brings on too its such a drastic change from middle school it kinda sux. At least there's an end to it oh well i guess ill just have to deal with it what ever.

Getting the honor of serving the king, I have to capture one hundred doves for his wedding. This is the king’s choice of food and if I fail he will be very disappointed in me for my poor ability to capture doves. I am Hugh and in the short story "The Hundredth Dove" this is what I do I serve the king to make him happy. This tale is most noticed for the mode of literature and the great symbolism which explains itself throughout.

The mode of literature is one of the most, if not the most, important part about this novella. This particular mode of literature is romance because nothing goes wrong or even close to out of control. Another huge reason that this is a romance is because he catches a beautiful white dove every day of the week and it somehow manages to escape from the net this was one of the mild conflicts. Lastly Hugh killed the white dove this was death which was also a conflict in the story because the king could not get married this did not relate to a romance though it was more of a tragedy in the end.

There are numerous things to be clarified about the symbolism. The biggest symbol that isn't quiet noticed at first is that the king’s new wife means dove and later in the fable she is a dove. Second when the white dove slipped out of the net this symbolized how she didn’t belong to him and to someone else. The third thing was the dove's black eyes it showed that there was a different side to her life that no one knew about but in the end Hugh found out by the end of the story. The last thing is that in the end Hugh never sees another dove again and that represents how the sadness that the king now has.

When you are serving the king you would not disobey him. Ones thoughts about failing to do a task that the king requests is disappointment and to disregard you. What it comes down to is to obey him as well as you can and getting as close as you can to his request. There were many things along with the symbolism that were unreal and to happy for real life that is what made this tale a romance.

Bull Run

On July 21, 1861 the First Battle of Bull Run occurred. I was in the middle of the fields prepared for anything, then out of nowhere came a giant 20 pound cannon ball. This was the beginning, the beginning of a long well matched battle. Before they knew how long the battle was going to be spectators gathered at the sidelines almost and they ended up getting stuck in the middle of the battle and most of them died. I honestly felt bad for them but it was their idiotic choice. The suffering of many of our fellow soldiers was outrageous because of the lack of supplies America had for healing.

It started out as a peaceful day, ordinary. Gen. P. G. T. Beauregard Lead the Rebs to the Northern half of the U.S. They started to attack us, the Union. Little did anyone know this was the beginning of the American Civil War. Almost everyone that was observing this what was supposed to be a minor, swift battle. Once the battle was on its way most of the young soldiers wandered off the battle grounds because of the extreme heat. That same day we reached our objective along a stream known as Bull Run. One of the Confederate spies gave a warning of what was happening and allowed Southern reinforcements to be moved from the Shenandoah Valley to Manassas. And thus was born the Civil War.

As we were there resting, the Gray backs had a sneak attack on us. Next thing I knew I had a bayonet through my chest. I fell to the ground in an instant. It was so cold and my hands were trembling from the great pain in my chest. In the few seconds that there were left in my life, one of the soldiers walked by looked down with almost a depressed look and walked away this happened with three other men but finally one person stopped and stayed with me the last seconds and as he walked away all I could see was us celebrating about our first victory of the war.

The first battle of Bull Run was the beginning of the Civil War. Over the first year I was watching over the North and asking God if he could help us get the greater advantages over the south. As we got closer to our victory over the Rebs we got less and less help. When the war was over I got chills down my spine because of the joy in my heart. I only wish I could have lived through what had happened only in the very first battle of the war…

One night you are relaxing to some mind numbing T.V. while babysitting your little brother and sister.

You hear an amazingly loud bang come from one of the upstairs bedrooms. Tip toeing up the stairs you are being as quiet as possible.

You hear the bang again now but this time from a different room.

You turn around to go into the other room: as you are approaching the room there is a loose floor board and when you step on it the sound is like a shriek of terror. The chill it sends down your spine is almost telling you that there is evil in the mysterious room.

When you make it to the doorway there is a different noise, like communication but not of this world.

As your hand is grasping for the door you are quivering so much it feels unreal. What is compelling you to reach for the door and not just turn and run?

Finally after what seemed like an hour, your hand has reached the door knob.

You rip the door open to the closet. There is nothing there.

You walk in unaware of what was coming next. Your heart calms to see an empty closet and notice there are clothes scattered everywhere on the closet floor. You start to pick them up.

In the middle of all this you feel breathing on the back of your neck. Your heart skips a beat.

With goose bumps on your arms and legs you turn around scared to death about what might be behind you. You let out a yelp.

You turn around as you are falling to the floor, only to see your little brother and sister that were supposed to be in bed and asleep.

Still not emotionally recovered from what happened you put the little ones back to bed once again. As you return to watch T.V. your mind races to figure out what was real and what was your imagination.

You convince yourself that your mind was playing tricks on you and you are already beginning to forget as your mind returns to comfortably numb and when you hear the loud bang again.

Just moving to town is hard it really makes you know who your true friends are. My life is difficult its not easy moving to a new town and it changes you and your friends.My first feeling when I was leaving my old house for good was why did this have to happen to me why couldn't it be someone Else's family that my dad works with. When we first got to our new house my only friends were my family and my dog. It was lonely and boring. One of the things that made me feel even more lonely was that when I smiled at Squeaky she gave me a dirty look like she hated me and was going to crush me in the race. Then after the race even though I came in second i gave her another smile to congratulate her on her victory against me, i hoped she wouldn't glare at me again. This time she didn't though and i thought to myself "huh maybe she doesn't hate me, maybe she things I'm a nice person and not over confident." Now me and Squeaky are great friends and we don't make fun of people for picking on her brother we just tell them sternly not to say that again just because he isn't mentally stable.

Equality

Imagine having a buzzer in your ear that goes off every 20 seconds. This lets you know how long people with an average mind think so that everyone is equal and no one is smarter than anyone else. To Harrison this was very unfair because he had a very high intelligence level and the Hazel did not. There are many reasons in which this short story "Harrison Bergeron" was a irony and not just that but also the how unrealistic it was.

2081 is the year that this Irony takes place in. This is a nightmare vision of reality because no country could ever make someone do that because they would probably end up moving to a different country. No one smarter than average would want that to be their life at all. One of the other major reasons why this is and irony is because it is in the future and nothing in this book is perfect except for the fact that Hazel and that is because she doesn't really worry about anything.

The year was 2081. This is one of the many things that is unrealistic in "Harrison Bergeron" although it is not all unrealistic like the television they watched the ballerinas on. One of the other unreal parts is that there are no technology advancements at all that they list, everything would probably he bigger and better and much more. The last reason is that there are buzzers in the ears of a brainy individual.

There were many things that were unreal in this short story and how it was a nightmare vision of reality. When someone is brighter that the average being, one would be grateful but not if you had a buzzing device that told you not to think any longer. But no matter what you try to do you'll still have to wear it. When you can only live like an average person your life will be miserable and dreary but you can't do anything about it so move on and live life to its full potential.
