We join a group that includes Delly,Annie, and Finnick. It's something to see Finnick's transformation since his marriage. His earlier incarnations--the decadent Capitol heartthrob Imet before the Quell, the enigmatic ally in the arena, the broken young man who tried to help me hold it together--these have been replaced by someone who radiates life. Finnick's real charms of self-effacing humor and an easygoing nature are on display for the first time. He never lets go ofAnnie's hand. Not when they walk, not when they eat. I doubt he ever plans to. She's lost in some daze of happiness. There are still moments when you can tell something slips in her brain and another world blinds her to us. But a few words from Finnick call her back.
Delly,

I've got some memories I can't make sense of, and I don't think the Capitol touched them.A lot of nights on the train, for instance," he says.
Again the implications. That more happened on the train than did. That what did happen--those nights I only kept my sanity because his arms were around me--no longer matters. Everything a lie, everything a way of misusing him.
Peeta makes a little gesture with his spoon, connecting Gale and me. "So, are you two officially a couple now, or are they still dragging out the star-crossed lover thing?"
"Still dragging," says Johanna.
Spasms cause Peeta's hands to tighten into fists, then splay out in a bizarre fashion. Is it all he can do to keep them from my neck? I can feel the tension inGale's muscles next to me, fear an altercation. But Gale simply says, "Iwouldn't have believed it if I hadn't seen it myself."
"What's that?" asks Peeta.
"You," Gale answers.
"You'll have to be a little more specific," says Peeta. "What about me?"
"That they've replaced you with the evil-mutt version of yourself," says Johanna.
Gale finishes his milk. "You done?" he asks me. Irise and we cross to drop off our trays.At the door, an

Joseph Campbell studied ancient greek mythology for many years. Joseph filled each stage of the journey very well. He accepted all the challenges he got and all the help he needed. He really knew how to fulfill all those stages. Like everyone goes through a heroic journey everyone has to have a story to tell. My story is very contrasty from Joseph’s because he really knew what all the stages meant. My hero's journey consists of my threshold crossing which was when I started depending on myself more than I did on others, my helpers/mentors like my parents, teachers,my sister and many more influential people in my life and my rewards were getting awards in school, having a nice family, and many friends.

I am grateful to have Derick as my sponsor. Upon first meeting him he seemed like a really chill person that I could easily get along with. After my pinning was over, he drove me to Happy Lemon for the fundraiser and we talked about many different things like our taste in music. He is also always checking up on me to make sure I do not forget things like my money order and my pin, which is something I am very grateful for. Derick told me about how his sponsor, Justin, took him to Johnny Rockets, so I decided to go there for our outing. During our outing, he help me understand more about the workings of Alpha Phi Omega. He even shared with me his own pledging experience which made me feel a lot better about my own situation. He shared with me

Most of my kindergarten to fourth grade years were spent in Peoria. We were a mixed family; my mother, sister, and I, with Gary Toubeau (stepfather), Tyler (stepbrother), and Michelle (stepsister). Gary had only seen a mixed family, whenever he has to choose between his children or his step children. Tyler abused this and the fact that he was the oldest, usually resulting in Tyler’s way many times. Michelle was different from the other two. Michelle, also known as, “Showie,” would spend more time with her “mixed family members” rather than her “real family.” One day, my mom had enough of Gary’s abusive treatment, when he actually physically touched her (as if he were going to hit her). The divorce ended bitterly, as Gary had found a
This is one of the hardest things I have ever had to do. I’m not exactly sure what to say or where to start. I don’t know how to let go of someone I love. I truly love you Tyler and care about you so much, but we need to come to an end. Over the past month or so I have been questioning us but even more so myself. It’s been a really difficult time for me and I am trying to figure out whom I am and what I want to do in life. I love school and want to focus on my future. I need to figure out where I want to go and focus on me. It’s so unfair to you and difficult to be with you or anyone for that matter when I don’t know who I am and where I want to go. I need to figure this out so badly Tyler, it’s killing me every day. I need to be happy with myself before anyone comes into
