A Hunger Games Recruitment

[love2read]

I just spoke to Lucy about pref round.

Rue- Lucy is COMPLETELY in love with this chapter! She was preffed by an active she had met during the week. The active told Lucy that she wanted to pref her and that she had been telling her roommate about Lucy all week. Methinks the girl who preffed Lucy has a little rush crush. I asked Lucy what changed with Rue, as at the beginning of recruitment she really didn't care for them much. She told me "they make me feel happy". You can't get much better than that! She liked their pref ceremony. The only thing she was bummed about was after the ceremony, it was time for her to leave the party. She really wanted to talk to the active after the ceremony.

Gale- While Gale has been a favorite of hers all week, they really didn't impress her much at pref. She was preffed by a girl she didn't know, someone she hadn't spoken to (am I the only one who thinks that is a bit odd). The active didn't talk about Gale and the sisterhood. When Lucy asked why she joined Gale her answer was "I was an only child". To Lucy that really wasn't an answer of why she joined Gale, as more why she went through recruitment. What also seemed a bit odd to Lucy was the girl who preffed her was a senior, she kind of expected her to be a bit better at "preffing" someone.

Primrose- Again Lucy was preffed by someone she didn't know and hadn't talked to. She didn't have much to say about Primrose. She told me she wasn't impressed by their pref night or ceremony. But it seems like Primrose has kind of fallen into her middle of ones she has liked all week.

She ranked...
1. Rue
2. Gale
3. Primrose

She finds out her bid at 4:30 (EST).

She is super nervous (understandably). She really wants Rue. I told her that we will both think positive that when she opens her bid card it says Rue on it.

I told her no matter what Rue, Gale and Primrose will get an AWESOME sister. I also told her to remember that no matter where she ends up, she will find sisters that will be her friends for life and some who won't, that is the nature of the beast.

I'm praying her bid card says Rue.
