The Hunger Games movie is out and I am planning on forming a competition with 15 contestants. The competition works like this. Make your own log as if you were really in a district. (For example)
Name: Robert (No last names)
District: 3 (It could be any. This is an example)
Skills: I am not bad in knife throwing, good with a bow and arrow, and know martial arts (Make sure this stuff is real)
Personality: Funny, intelligent, and adventurous (Make sure this stuff is real too)
Paragraph: (This is the part of the competition that will get you the most points. It could be anything, but it has to be about the log you wrote. About the Hunger Games)
For example: The arena was burning. It was just sand, sand, and more sand. The gatemakers must have got tired of this 'entertainment' and decided our life to be as short and miserable as possible. My throat was parched and I couldn't find water. It was a desert after all. There were no trees, but piles of rocks. My bow and arrows would be useful in this terrain. Even I could kill with my throwing knife, even though I am not the best. I was suddednly shaken out of my stupor when a big boy bolted at me. It was strange. He was running straight at me even though my bow was locked and loaded. I drew and fired at his large head. He must have been expecting it because he ducked as soon as my hand let the arrow fly. I tried drawing my knife, but the boy crashed into me with knife in hand. We struggled for a few seconds and then his body went limp. I threw him off me only to stand up to a tall girl with a knife poised for another throw. I wondered how it was like to die. (Make sure you don't copy me. Grammar mistakes will get you less points)
After you wrote your log and paragraph leave it in the comments. I'll check them out as soon as they come and give you my score. It will be on a scale from 1-10. 1 is very bad and 10 is very good. Good luck and may the odds be ever in your favor!!!

District:12
Skills: Good in running, camoflauging, and on finding food
Personality: Smart,weird, and sneaky
Paragraph: I tried not to scream, but that seemed impossible with spears whizzing past my ears. I needed to seem confident in the midst of the assault. I needed sponsors if I survive this. Even though that didn't seem possible. " I'll get you, just yet!" That really didn't help. Mental note: When trying to kill someone, try not yell at them every second. Fortunately, I'm a fast runner. Whizz!! Okay, not anymore. One of the spears pierced my leg. "Ha!", the boy laughed triumphantly. "Time to meet your doom!" At the exactly wrong moment, I tripped. He stood over me. I braced myself for the impact. But the impact never came. The boy screamed and fell dead. Then a different figure stood over me, polishing his knives on his shirt. "I'll bring you to your doom instead. My honor." Just do it,I thought and closed my eyes, waiting.....

District: 3
Skills: lying, finding food, swimming, good with the knife and hand-to-hand combat
Personality: smart ( a bit ), adventurous, talkative (except for situations where talking is strictly: YOU ARE DEAD IF YOU TALK!)
Paragraph:
Fire burned and trees fell down. I hid behind a tree and took out my knife. Why was I reaped I thought to myself. I gripped my knife tighter, as I felt that I am not the only tribute here, my knees shaked. I was trembling. The footsteps came closer and closer, I tried to calm myself down, but no use. The footsteps came closer and closer by the second. Not knowing what to do I walked out from my hiding place and faced the tribute with the fire burning beside us.

District: 7
Skills: I'm good with throwing knives, I've got a good aim with a bow n' arrow, an amazing swimmer, I'm good at gymnastics, and hand-to-hand combat
Personality: Shy, elusive, somewhat intimidating, keeps to herself, and is very charming at times
Paragraph:
I walk towards the side of the water, staggering as the pain shoots up my arm. I stare at my ragged reflection in the water and submerge the horrible gash on my arm The pain is excruciating, but brings almost immediat relief. I understand what the gamemakes were thinking, making these lush mountain valley springs clear, smooth, and safe, while the abundant wildlife hunts us down. Even the smallest birds seek flesh, what seem to be harmless plants are carnivorous, and the antoxicating berries with their lush scent and bright colors are poisonous. I hear a slight rustling behind me and my hands are immediantly on my bow and notching an arrow. I stare up and it's my district partner. I lower my bow, we used to be friends I can't just kill him, but he doesn't seem to have the same restriction. He crashes into me screaming bloody murder, I'm thrown down on my back. His eyes are fierce, wild like a cornered animal. Before I know it the blood is running freely from my arm as I realize in horror that he's purposely squeezing it trying to make me lose enough blood. If putting my hand in the water hurts, this is tortue. I'm screaming and flailing like there's no tomorrow. I kick him in the chest completely by luck and he's thrown backwords. Where got the strength I don't know, but I don't hestitate to send my arrow into his heart this time. The cannon booms above me and I know it's over. I bend down next to his body and remove his pack. I hestitate, I feel awful a gnarled inside because he was my first kill and my disrtrict partner. I'm seized for a moment by the quesy-ness of the thought on how I just killed him no mercy. "Oh well I probably won't make it home to be hated," I whisper to myself as the hovercraft appears.

two
I am great with knifes,excellent runner,quick thinker
intellegent,brave,awesome
about my life in the district
In my district,Careers were common,and I was one.I was a fast runner,quick thinker,and no one could match my skills with a knife other than my brother,Cato. All my skills came from my constant training. Every day,I ran miles and then miles more.Practice targets were destroyed by my daggers.Thinkers were out witted by my mind.And who tuaght me it all?None other than my brother Cato.I have heard people say that living in district two is easy because the Capitol favors us but its not as easy as you would expect.Cato and I had to provide for nine younger siblings.Our mother did what she could but it wasnt enogh.We lived on scraps untill Cato and I stepped in.Thats when we became careers.We practiced for the games,hinking of the winning money that could save us.And while we trained,we learned to hunt and steal.I was the soft hand.Cato distracted marketers while I took what we needed.And we stole quite well in fact.Soon,though,I found an honest job as did Cato and now we rarely need to steal. Doessnt mean we still dont. Cato and I were seeked as husbands too,but we sought only the games.So when I stood at the reaping this year,I smiled when they called my name.
Got to go now! Bye!

District: 4
Skills: Very sneaky, good with a knife, decent with a bow.
Personality: Smart, friendly, easy to get along with, adventurous.
Paragraph: I was stalking two of the careers, the girl from 1 and the boy from 2. Normally district 4 tributes are careers, but I wasn't one of those kind of people. I was... nice. So, as soon as the bell rang, instead of staying and fighting I grabbed a backpack from the cornucopia, and ran. Now two days later, with only eight of us remaining, I was following the careers. They had a ton of food, and I was getting really hungry! But I also knew that hunger made you do crazy things, like taking on two careers that had been trained all their life for this. I mean it was the Hunger Games after all. But my greatest skill, stalking, had kept me alive this long and it was going to keep me alive longer. So my plan was to go destroy all their food after, of course, I took as much as I could carry. Night was falling, and I knew they would start a fire and fall asleep immediately. They weren't the kind of compationate ones that stayed up to watch the faces of the fallen, they weren't like me. They sat in a clearing, they didn't even bother to post a guard. The fire was making shadows, perfect for me to creep along. My only problem was that the food was between them and the fire. I knew my only chance to get it was before the anthem started. So I made my move, stealthily moving towards the fire. They only way to get to the food was to lean over the boy from 2, and grab it. I reached, and he woke up...
Well tell me what you think!

District: 5
Personality: seriose, alarmed, wary
Paragraph: boy I was thirsty a ship just rammed mine and I saw the shore just a little far away...about a mile away I knew that I couldnt make it " If I cant make it just getting to shore, then theres no use trying" I said, I swam towards the nearest boat and used my sword to grab on to the thin wood. The person aboard had shrukins one by one he threw "stay still boy! stay still so I can kill you!" I threw my sword at his chest "GAAAHHHH!!" he fell over I caught my sword. I pityed him and walked abaord and road to shore then I felt my self bleeding in the fight and the ram and I started to bleed, but the shrukin had poison. I put some vinegar on it and the wound bubbled. I went for saftey ever knowing that if I dont finish this game in time...it wouldnt be long untill i die.

Name: Mary
District: 3
Skills: Persistence, determination, courage, creativity (as in creating ways to surprise unsuspecting subjects), good at creating allies, I have pretty good aim.
Personality: courageous, willing to do right despite the consequences, determined, courageous, smart, sweet,
Paragraph:
I ran through the woods at a rapid speed with twelve year old Danielle five feet ahead of me. I had allied her a few days ago and she had proven helpful on many occasions. An arrow shot past my head, but missed as we sped on. Twenty minutes later we came to a halt at a small spring of water.
"We haven't heard them for a while, lets rest here for a few minutes and refresh our water supply." I suggested. Danielle nodded her head, still trying to catch her breathe.
We knelt down beside the water and caught our breathe and resting before we were forced to run again, but we never got the chance.
"You stopped too early dearest Mary." the familiar voice of Weston from district one sounded directly behind me. Before I could even turn around one of his arms wrapped around my waist and the other held a dagger across my exposed neck. I looked toward Danielle and saw that two other careers were holding her and a third had an arrow notched to his bow, the tip aimed toward Danielle's heart.
"Here's the fun part Mary," Weston spoke softly in my ear, "you get to choose. Would you prefer you or Danielle to die first?"
"I'd rather you let Danielle go free." I said.
"That is not an option, fair one," he replied, then addressing the careers said, "Let us show what mercy we have to give to lovely Mary here."
They all three nodded and then to my horror all three pulled out knives and stabbed the thrashing and teary eyed Danielle, repeatedly and cruelly. Ten seconds later, after they were finished, Danielle had more than sixteen dreadfully deep wholes in her small beautiful body and the white flowers her lifeless body was flung upon were painted red.
"My sweet girl, this is all the mercy we have to show you." Weston said, sounding as if he was enjoying the experience and desiring more, "Have you any last words?"
Streams of glistening tears slipped down my face and my body felt weak and faint. I starred at Danielle's tortured body, why did I have to suggest resting?
"All must die eventually, but this doesn't have to be the cause of it," I screamed, "You, the Capitol, and all who are enjoying this moment have wronged me and Danielle, and I want all to know that I will forgive you." I articulated the last part in a voice so strong I hardly recognized it as mine.
"All shall not die your death, so enjoy." Weston wrenched my dagger out of its sheath, set his own down and a moment later I lay limp and lifeless next to Danielle. Guess who won the Hunger Game that year . . . Weston the mighty betrayer; subject to the Capitol the freedom thief.
Lucian out!

Paragraph:
I ran.
Ran as fast as my long legs could take me. No, I am not running from a tribute. No, I am not running from a giant bear or muttation. What am I running from?
Acid rain.
"Good job, Sheel, you just triggered the acid rain," I said sarcastically to my District partner.
"Why are you blaming it on me?!" he exclaimed. "How do you know the Peacekeepers didn't trigger it?"
"Because!"
In my mind, I asked myself, "Why did I ever have to volunteer for Naima!? She's older, and would probably know what to do now."
"Because," I thought. "Even though she's older and smarter and cunning...er, she's a somebody who people care about and know about. I'm just a shadow. No one will notice me gone."
I kept on running, until finally, the Acid Rain stoped.
But just as it stopped, arrows started coming our way.
"What luck!" I heard Sheel mutter.
I whipped out my sword, and deflected most of them.
"Sheel! Climb up this tree! Now!" I ordered, already on the second branch. It was a tall tree... and the same tree where we set up our little trap.
He tried scrambling up the tree.
Then, the careers emerged into the scene.
Sheel - who was only 12- let out a small gasp, but I covered his mouth before the Careers heard.
"I am going to kill that idiot when I find her and her little buddy," a career said, so angrily that he kicked another tree so hard, it shook.
"Calm down. She only took your sword," a girl career said.
I looked at my hands, where the same sword I stole from the career was.
"You took it," Sheel whispered.
I put my finger to his mouth, telling him to keep quiet.
"Come on, let's go kill. We haven't done anything in what feels like years!" another career said.
"Yeah, lets go."
As soon as the Careers left, I relaxed a bit... except for the part where one of the Careers has planned to rip my throat out.
I strapped myself onto the tree.
"Are you sure this is safe?" Sheel asked, as he did the same.
"The Hunger Games isn't safe," I was going to say. But, I wanted to comfort him as much as possible. I mean, what 12 year old should be going through all this tortureful horrific nightmare? Instead, I said, "Positive. As long as you strap yourself in right."
After awhile, I finally fell asleep.
A piercing scream woke me up instantly the next morning.
And believe me, you don't want to know what happened.

I risk a look back, and saw a career boy aiming at me, I was frozen with fear. I ran as an arrow nearly hit me. I look back and he was gone, I ran deeper, I was exhausted so I quickly climb up a tree, without thinking I sneak a peak at my backpack, inside contained only a few things: a strange purple book, a thick branch?, a bread and only half a bottle of water. I decided to risk a little bread and water. Curious, I looked in the book, my family could afford school until I was 10. I could make out a few words "Secrets in the arena" is it a trap??? I look down just as another career was aiming for me, I immediately froze in place ...
