The Hunger Games Chapters 25-27

  • What do you think is going to happen to (character) in the future? Make predictions.


Wow. In these few chapters what happened was Cato died, and it was a really long death to. He died from these weird looking werewolf things, and Katniss realized that the Werewolf's looked like the other tributes that died which was crazy. Katniss and Peeta were freezing and so they were were actually waiting for a hovercraft to come pick them up because they were the last two and they were both from the same district so they won! But they waited forever until they heard a voice, a familiar voice, it was Claudius templsmith. He said through the speaker and said " Greeting to the final contestants of the seventy-fourth Hunger Games. The earlier revision has been revoked. loser examination of the rule book has disclosed that only one winner may be allowed. Good luck and may the odds be ever in your favor." Katniss was really surprised that he said that but then Peeta leaned over her and told her that he kinda knew that they would do something like that. So there idea was to commit suicide by eating the left over berries that killed Fox Face. Then the capitol didn't like that so they let the both of them win. They were so happy! Star crossed lovers. So after they got all changed up and healed they were interviewed. But lets skip that part and go to the juicy part! They were on the train leaving the capitol to go home and then Peeta found out that Katniss was just acting to like him when he actually liked her. Then they got to District 12 and Peeta told Katniss to do the the act one more time and then it ended. I loved this book so much, i hate books but i could not put this book down! I recommend this book to everyone. I think in the next book Katniss and Peeta might hate each other and Gales family might move in with Katniss because she has a nice house and maybe they might get married!

The Hunger Games Chp. 22 - 24

  • What would you do if you were (character) at this point in the book?


I am so shocked right now! In these coupe of chapters Peeta's leg healed enough so that he could at least walk. Since Katniss saw the improvement of his leg she thought it would be a good time to hunt because they didn't have much food left and it was really hard to hunt in the rain, but eventually the rain stopped. While they were walking back to where Katniss and Rue camped out, Peeta was making a lot of noise and since he made so much noise, most of the animals heard them coming and they ran away. Thank you Peeta your a big help. Katniss decided to go hunting for animals and let Peeta look for berries since he was crying bloody merry every time he took a step! Then Katniss came back and saw that Peeta was not there anymore and she got really worried and yelled his name out thinking that Cato might have taken him. But no, he was near the river looking for some more berries, thank you Peeta again for scaring me like crazy! But the most funniest thing was how Fox Face died. Some of the berries that Peeta picked were poisonous and the clever Fox Face took some and she died right after she ate them. Who would have thought Fox Face would die that way, because i didn't think she would. If i were to be Katniss in this point of the book i would be really depressed because first shes in the hunger games and has no idea how here family is and second she is taking care of Peeta and hes kind of hard to take care of. Peeta thought that Cato killed Fox Face but then Katniss had to explain to him that the berries were poisonous, well i guess this counts as Peeta's first kill.
At the end of chapter 24 all the water that was in the pond was dried out and so they went to where the careers camp was because they had a huge pond of water and when they got there they made sure that Cato wasn't there, but he came in running towards Katniss and Peeta but he wasn't running after them, he was running away from a pack of unknown animals in the arena. I can not wait for the last two chapters because this Friday we will be going to see The Hunger Games in theater and after that i will be making a comparison between the movie and the book but i don't think i have ever read a book then watched the movie and like the movie better. In the books it has more details and i really like that. May the odds be ever in your favor and i hope you enjoyed reading my blog!

The Hunger Games Chp. 19-21



  • How do you feel about the character at this point in the book?

Once Katniss heard that there could be 2 tributes can win that are from the same district, she went out to find Peeta she tried to think of stuff Peeta said to see where he is. When she found him he was in a mud pond i guess you could say. She helped him up and found out that his leg was injured really badly. i thought it was kind of silly of him to hide in a mud pond but if i was in the hunger games and my leg was injured then yeah, i might do something like that. What Katniss realized was that every time that she kisses Peeta they get one pot of soup. Now to think of it, i don't think that Haymitch is really a bad person after all because i think he actually wants them to win. I think Haymitch is was going toward Katniss' side more because when Peeta saw all the stuff that Haymitch sent to Katniss, he realized that Haymitch never sent him anything. Katniss was all over Peeta like she would kiss Peeta every now and then and i think one of the reasons that they let 2 people from the same district win was probably because the audience liked the whole romance thing going on about them. Katniss heard Claudius Templesmith saying that they had backpacks for every person that was still left in the arena that had things that they desperately needed and that each backpack had there district number. Katniss really needed medicine for Peeta for his leg because it was getting worse and worse every single day. I really liked these couple of chapters because Katniss saw some of the careers and she got caught up with some trouble. I think the nicest part in these chapters was when Thresh helped Katniss get away from the careers, he probably did that since she took care of Rue because they were both from the same district. I absolutely can not wait for the movie to actually see these thing go into action!

24 Hour Diet

Here is my spreadsheet that shows my diet for 24 hours

Today we calculated how many calories, carbohydrate, fat and protean we had in our diet starting from yesterday after school  and what we were going to eat today.

Summery of my nutrition information for the past 24 hours
Total Calories: 402.5
Carbohydrates: 62.601g
Fat:9.74g
Protean: 16.15g


Questions
1. How does your total calories compare to the recommended 2000 calories per day?
Well i got 20.1% out of 100% and i think i don't get enough calories for 24 hours but then at the time i felt kinda sick so yeah.
2. What time of day do you eat most of your calories - morning, afternoon or evening?

 Usually I eat around the afternoon.
 
3. What does your answer to question #2 imply about your long term health? 
Well, i think i should eat most of my food around the morning so i could loose enough calories and have enough energy for school    
4. Describe how many minutes you exercise per day and what activities you engage in on a regular basis. I ride my bike around my neighborhood that's about 1 mile with my sisters so it takes about 1 hour and a couple of minutes to go all the way around but it we do most of the exersi
5. Use the internet to find out how many calories you burn doing the activities you listed in #4. Considering that the average person burns about 2000 calories per day without doing any extra exercise, how many total calories do you think you burn each day? 
I lose 327 calories a day because it takes about 1 hour and a couple of minutes to go around my neighborhood and if the average human loses 2000 calories without other activities then 

6. What is the most important thing that you can change about your diet or lifestyle to improve your long term health?  I should exerciser way more and eat more but healthier foods so i have the energy that i could exerciser even more
