They're not going to pick you, Prim..

A week ago, my life changed. No, I did not get engaged. But.. I did see the Hunger Games. And from that beginning line, I was hooked. So if you have some misconstrued idea that I am not someone who would become obsessed with something such as this series, you should probably stop reading now. If you already know how weird I am and count down the days until you can see the movie again, read on and enjoy.

First off, let me just say that when I'm not seeing the movie (which I've done twice already), I'm reading the book. When I'm not reading the book, I'm watching interviews. When I'm not watching interviews, I'm listening to the soundtrack. And when I'm not doing any of that, I'm just relating my own life to the Hunger Games.

Think I'm a freak yet?

Last Thursday, I came home to this vase of white roses sitting on my dining room table. I felt threatened. President Snow wishing me good luck that night, obviously.

I went to the theater around 9:30 p.m. with Rach and Kaile, and it was packed already. We eventually found which theater we were supposed to go in; and, although Kaile's ticket was technically for 12:21 a.m., she got into our 12:13 showing with some batting of her eyelashes (possibly something she could use in the arena...)

After waiting for two hours, Kaile said she was about ready to die and would rather go home and go to sleep then see the movie. And then it started. Though it was 2:45 a.m. by the time we left the theater to go home, it didn't even matter. I loved it. Kaile said she couldn't stop smiling the whole movie.



Peeta Mellark (I guess I also mean Josh Hutcherson?). Need I say any more? Every time he was on screen I couldn't wipe a smile off my face. He is the sweetest, most sincere character. Their love is so real. At least, that's what Kaile and I keep saying. Ugh, his smile!

And now for some things that made me laugh out loud. By myself. Obvs still Hunger Games related.

 Stop. I died.


Sorry I'm not sorry. (Let's make that every time I talk about the Hunger Games.)

Absolutely.

Cutest little interview evaaaa. This is where that quote comes from. Love love love.

Umm, also this one. But, it's 11 minutes long, so I don't blame you if you don't watch it.

And to end...




I lied. Okay, now that you absolutely, undeniably know I'm a freak, I'll leave you with one parting thought..
