I was in preschool when I was 4 . In the middle of the year I had to go to Mexico . I left because I had to go see my grandparents . The main reason I had to go to Mexico was because of my grandmother . My grandmothers heart had started to overgrow and she needed surgery. Soon enough the day of her surgery came, and she did great . I stayed in Mexico for about 2 months or so. While I was in Mexico , Christmas came along. During that day my aunt and I gave thanks to god for letting us have my grandparents there with us . Soon after that, we had a basket of strawberries that had the most golden flavor ever . Then the strawberries were gone and we wanted more , so my grandmother told my aunt to go get some more strawberries and to put some sack in it . Once my aunt came back the strawberries were so mouthwatering,delightful and juicy when you take the bite out of that red, big strawberry . Soon enough we finished the strawberries I felt full and I felt sleepy so I decided to go into my aunts room and sleep but I couldn't fall asleep because I kept on thinking about my family in Kannapolis .So I just sat there and thought the whole time. I felt the coldness and emptiness in the morning . It looked like a room of adventure when I looked around . Once I was there for along time I felt homesick just seeing the living room and everything outside just reminded me of my actual home . I felt that maybe I could just sit there and cry but I didn't . Instead I would go visit my cousins and sleep over there where they live . Soon enough I was there for 2 months I wished I could be there for at least another month ( even though I felt homesick I wanted to stay there).
Then 2 weeks later it was time to get on the plane and come home . Before I was taken to the airport it broke my heart seeing my grandparents cry . My grandfathers last words before i got on the plane were " I love you and take care." My grandmothers last words were " I love you and no matter what , I am going to be here for you ." So I got on the plane , with tears in my eyes and found my seat where I waved my last goodbye and never got to see them again .
Now and then I talk to my grandparents through the phone and hear their voice that fulfills me with joy and warmth inside . It doesn't feel the same hearing there voice instead of feeling there warm hugs . Soon enough i will go to Mexico and see them again . I still wonder if Mexico looks the same way as it did when I was there.

hunger games connections
Where did it all take place?
The occupy wall street movement all started in Manhattan Park and now its all nationwide but during the hunger games it took place in Panem and in the arena .This cause for occupy wall street movement is because teen and adults are being removed from Manhattan Park because the protesters have put up tents to live in while they are protesting .The other cause is because the hunger games tributes in the arena have to find a place to live and then be able to hide away from the other tributes .
Why it started?
The occupy wall street movement started because the protesters want new jobs and want a suitable life said (James kalm ) but in the hunger games Katniss wants a more suitable life with her mom and little sister but at the same time the other districts also want a more suitable life to . They both connect because all of the people living in a certain district want a more suitable life .
Who is being affected ?
The people being affected in the occupy wall street movement are all of the students and workers because students want to be able to get money from their parents to be able to pay their college and stuff and workers to be able to support their families . So in the hunger games the people that are being affected are kids that are 10 and 14 because they are being killed and hurt while they are fighting in the arena .So basically the wallstreet movement and the hunger games are like hurting themselves because some of them end up in jail not thinking how his or her family will end up and on the other side tribute have ti kill eachother and suffer just to end up earning a suitable life.
Who saw it all ?
During the movement police officers saw it all , kids in a very young age saw it ,teens and adults saw it . During the hunger games , districts saw it , kids that are young saw it ,the capitol people saw it also the tributes ...

Who i relate to in the hunger games
The tribute that i relate to in the hunger games is katniss because we both like to help out people . We both love to figure out what our family is going to eat . We both have younger siblings that we care about and would hate them getting hurt . We also careless what people think about us. We like to fight to get things . We both also get mad easily . Me and katniss both have have a little bit trust with our moms her because of what she says in the book and me because im not that close to my mom im more closer to my dad . Well thats how i think i can associate to katniss .

hunger games reflection
Well in the book hungergames katniss found peeta really wounded from his leg and with a high fever . So katniss was attending peetas leg witch had puss and she had said that her heart had dropped down to her stomach when she saw his leg . Then peeta asked katniss to tell him a story and katniss answered him with : what kind of story would he like and stuff . So katniss told him the story about how she got prim the goat. Later on that day clauduis templesmith had announced that there were bags of supplies at the cornucopia that they will need . So katniss and peeta had a little argument about her going . After there fight she agreed with him on him eating the soup even though it was nasty and they agreed . So katniss went to see the soup and she got a parachute with a supply in it witch was sleep syrup so that she could put peeta to sleep for a whole day . So she gave it to peeta and made him knockout so she could go to the cornucopia and get the bags .

hunger games response
In chapter 16, katniss and Rue make an alliance to hep each other out and be able to kill the careers and be able to make a plan to be able to destroy the careers food .
In chapter 17 ,katniss blew up the cannons that come up from the ground and a whole bunch of smoke was there after the blew up .
in chapter 18 , rue was stabbed by a boy from district 1 . Katniss saw that Rue was going to get stabbed so she had time to pull out her bow and arrow and stab him in the neck before he stabbed rue . then there was a change in the rules that said if 2 tributes from their own district lived then they will win in the hungergames which made katniss think off peeta when claudius templesmith said that .
