I Know You're In There (Odesta Blog)

by Laurensscribbles

It is a week after Annie's games and to cope with the post traumatic stress she is going through, Beetee suggests she starts a blog. However, since she is not mentally able to blog right away, Finnick starts off the blog for her and writes daily posts about her progress as well as other things.

38. Day 38

Day 38

The party hasn't even happened yet but I have to write about it tomorrow because by the time I get home it will be tomorrow and I'll have missed the deadline for writing daily. Today has basically just been a preparation for the party. We arrived into the Capitol really early and then Annie got whisked away by Minnie and her prep team for various waxings and baths and other things. I think the Capitol way of getting people ready is dumb. Annie is beautiful without all of the make up and chemicals and stuff. I hope they let her wear her converse. She hates wearing heels and she won't be able to argue with them. She's been able to wear her converse the whole tour because it's supposed to be her own style but the Capitol is more formal and Minnie might make her wear horrible heels in a vain attempt to sex her up for the Capitol audiences.

I was able to sleep late because I don't need nearly as much preparation. Then Minnie got me fitted for a medical boot that looks like a dress shoe so I still look formal in the presence of the President and all the important Capitol people. The Capitol does not appreciate fashion blunders, not even if they're there for medical reasons; so by this dumb logic my crutches had to go. Then I got a hair cut and I don't like it because my curls aren't as bouncy but Minnie called my curls "boyish and scruffy." I don't get why these people care so much about their appearances. Then I was put into a classic black suit with a light blue dress shirt and a light green tie which Minnie said will match Annie's outfit. We're constantly dressed in blues and greens because we're from Four. I don't mind. Blues and greens usually complement our skin tones nicely because it makes our skin look tanner. Also the green brings out Annie's eyes and I love that.

I'm sorry for the short post but the party is in a few hours so I need to continue getting ready. I'm sure tomorrow will be a long entry about the party. I hope it's not too much of a mess. I can't wait to go home. I'm stopping here. Wish me luck.
