I'm Michael but you can call me MICKAAAAAYYYY! I'm nine and I'm from nine ha isn't that neat? I like a lot of things but my favorite thing is Rocks and BLANKETS and PEOPLE and also I'm nine!
I've got two brothers and three sisters and they're all cool. So are my parents! I love all of my family! They're all so neat! My sister Aestraea can be a little bit annoying sometimes (she's such a GIRL bleh) but, she's also really nice also. My house is a little bit crowded because of all the people in my family but I like that because people are my favorite. Especially family people. They're easier because they HAVE to love you no matter what! It's like, a law or something.
My mom says I'm cute but she's my mom, what does she know? I mean yeah I've got blue eyes and sandy blond hair, but I mean, lots of people have that. Almost everyone else in my family does. I think I'm kinda ugly because my nose is sorta big and my body is kinda dorky looking. Also my face almost doesn't match up quite right, I think.
How I look actually matters a lot to me. Pretty girls are a thing, after all. Also.... never mind. I try really hard every morning to get my hair just right. In my opinion, looks are the first thing people look at when they try to assess the coolness factor of a person.
For some reason, I really want to be considered "cool". I mean other kids will talk to me and stuff but, I've never had a real friend friend that would go over my house all the time and actually CARE about me. As a person. That's kinda my goal in life actually, to find non family people that choose me specifically to be around. In fact, one of the things I look forward to most about growing up, is the idea of getting married. To have one person choose me over all other people. To have someone who thinks I'M the coolest. That my rock collection is awesome.
That's another thing, the main reason people don't really think I'm cool is because they all think my rock collection is lame. Even when I let them throw them at things. Which is weird to me because, I thought everyone liked destruction? I mean, I've broken at least.... I don't know.. 6? I think I've broken at least 6 windows with my uglier rocks. I've actually gotten really good at throwing because of it. Sometimes, I even use a slingshot I made to shoot them. My favorite pastime is actually to go out to find abandoned houses, draw little shapes on their windows, and then make a little game out of hitting the drawings with the rocks. Also I ate one of the rocks once to see what it tasted like but it was okay because no one noticed and I don't think I died.
As weird as that might seem, I'm proud. Of my rock shooting and throwing skills, anyway, not the eating a rock thing. If I ever get reaped for the games, I'll already know exactly what to do. I think being in the games would be scary, but also I think it would be nice. Even if I didn't win, I'd get to be on tv and wear a costume and, because there's probably a lot of people in the capital, I'd probably be someone's favorite tribute. Sigh.
Then again, I don't really know all that much about what actually happens in the arena. I've never actually seen any deaths or anything. Aestraea's made sure of that. Sometimes, I get really scared that someone in my family will end up in the games. That my little childhood sanctuary could be ripped to shreds right in front of my eyes. That's probably the only downside I see to having such a large amount of people in a family, or even, a large amount of anything you value: The more you have, the easier it is to lose.
