I saw it and I loved it! I can't wait to get it on DVD!

I am so excited!

What day does it come out on again?

Are you guys excited about the Hunger Games Movie?

Yes I think it means electricity though, that kind of power.

It is power.

All of the color drained from Kerston's face. He looked at Jayda,and for a second Jayda thought she saw scaredness in his eyes, but it was for only a second. Jayda hugged her friends and her parents, and walked up to the stage. Jayda thought she saw a hint of relief in her mother's face, and a small smile on her father's.
Yes, she thought, I will have a chance to prove to my father that a girl can win the Hunger Games. At least he can be proud and happy now that I am competing in the Hunger Games. He will be able to brag to all the other men now his daughter is actually IN the Hunger Games.
But Jayda was scared. She was going to die.

"Lucky," Tonnetta dared to say.

"Jayda Shani."

"The next girl from District One to compete in the Hunger Games is..."
There was a long pause. It felt like no one even dared to breath.

Jayda had trained all her life for this moment, being part of the career districts. Finniken Oberwanski pulled out the name.
Jayda and her parents purposely put Jayda's name in there more by getting more free grain.

Finniken Oberwanski stood on the stage. His had moved over to the girl's wheel. Jayda thought about how much she wanted to be choosen. But mostly she thought about her father. He had wanted a son, but instead he had gotten a daughter. He thought that if he had a son, he would be more likely to win the Hunger Games. After Jayda had been born, her parents had tried again to have a son, and they succeeded, but the baby boy died a week after being born from lack of food.
