Tonight is what I have been the most excited about the whole entire time. The Interviews. It is the last opportunity to express your feelings and character before a probable death for all but one. Everyone dresses the nicest, and stylists go full out making sure there tribute is looking at there finest. I wonder what Flame has in mind for me. Anyways, this whole entire day is used to prepare for the interview in all different kind of ways. Like being able to walk in the 6 to 8 inch heels I will probably have to wear. Or as simple as just finding my interview angle.

" So today, we are getting straight down to work, because the earlier we get the preparation done, the more time you will have to hang out before you have to go see your stylist" says Finnick.

Finnick really meant what he said. After breakfast, we had only a matter of minutes to change before everyone wanted to start. So Tabitha began teaching me how to walk in heels. When I mean teach, it was more like forcing me to walk in heels for like 4 hours. After that, one would assume how much pain my feet were in. But hey, at least I won't be tripping and falling in heels on stage tonight. The part that to me is the most important, is the interview angle which Finnick is waiting on the couch to talk to me.

" I've already helped Cody through this and lets just say that wasn't the easiest of things" Finnick said.

"Why what happened".

" Well it isn't him exactly, it's just that his personality doesn't come out as an obvious angle to pull off".

" Is that a good or a bad thing" I chimed in.

" Let's just say that I hope it is a lot easier to find you an angle"

" So let's get started".

This is the part that I found the most useful. For the next few hours Finnick and I asked each other questions that would relate to the interview. At first, I just acted as myself, but then Finnick asked me to add a little twist such as flirty, charming, blood thirsty, killing machine, cute, funny, ferocious, etc.

" I think I found the perfect angle... try cute and feisty, the boys will love it".

" Ok" is all that I have to say.

I don't like what Finnick is saying. If anything I should act more mature with excitement. I am fourteen, not twelve. Plus, I need to convince sponsors that I am willing to get down to business when I kill. Eventually, I guess I'll treat the interview and the games like a performance, since all the capitol wants is a good show.

Standing behind the district 3 boy all prettied up, I never expected to feel so self conscious. I do look pretty, but my dress is a little more revealing than I want, exposing a lot of my back. But, I guess that will get the men in the crowd going. My thoughts begin to linger as I become more focused on the other interviews. Glimmer went all out, practically flirting and bouncing her long blonde locks the whole time. Marvel was a charmer, with his warm gestures and cocky sense of humor. While Cato and Clove were just killing machines. After a couple of boring interviews from the District 3 pair, it is now my time to shine on stage.

" From District 4 lets please welcome the beautiful Carla Cortez" Ceaser said introducing me to the stage.

We shake hands and sit down waiting for the crowd to settle, I held my shoulders and back up high as I was not going to let nervousness overshadow me. As with the others so far, Ceaser made the move and asked a question.

" So, Carla we all here are in awe of your training score considering how young you are... how exactly did you manage to achieve that 10" Ceaser spoke.

"Well, I can't give that away because that would ruin the fun... plus I will show you in the arena".

" So tell me, is there a special boy at home" said Ceaser.

" No not really I'm single".

" I don't believe you a girl this gorgeous better have some boys chasing after you" Ceaser mentioned in shock.

"Well if I win, hopefully some boys would take interest" Is all I have to say.

The crowd cheered again as I left the stage, Tabitha hugging me backstage. So we all watched the remainder of Cody's interview and lets just say that all the women loved him. His breathtaking smile and his tanned and toned skin shined in the suit he was dressed in. But besides that, no other interviews really stuck out to me, except for District 12 with the romance between the two. Ugh, whatever, I will kill them anyways. The thought of tommorrow ran through my head heavily as I reached my bedroom. Death really scares me especially when 23 people will be experiencing it. Which most likely is going to be me. I guess I should try to get some sleep since I won't be getting a lot in the arena.
