Kiara Rider
District Four | Seventeen

Fighting in cold blood isn't really my style. If I fight, I'm defending myself or another person I care about. I'm generally not the type who gets into too many conflicts. I'd consider myself rather friendly, and I get along with people quite will, having a knack for making good friendships. As someone who loves singing, I'm glad to be told quite often that I'm rather talented at it. It's something I truly appreciate. Compliments are things that make me feel really good about myself. I'm a generally cheery person, and it's hard to upset me.

I do train as a career, but only because my parents want me to. They want me to be prepared just in case I end up in the Hunger Games. I would need to be able to defend myself if that happened, so I agree with my parents. People don't really see me as very intimidating, likely due to being rather short and having hair dyed blue and black. Regardless, I'd say I'm pretty strong.

I've also been told that I have an interesting sense of style. I wear a variety of interesting outfits. As long as I like how it looks on myself, I don't care what others think. My chest is rather large, resulting in difficulty when it comes to keeping myself completely covered. Sometimes this results in people starting at my bust, but I try my best to ignore it, as it makes me a bit uncomfortable.

There are five of us kids in my family,. I have one older sister, two younger sisters and a younger brother. Robert is my younger brother, and he's fifteen. My older sister, Haylee, is nineteen, and my younger sisters, Kimberly and Rebecca are seven and three years old, respectively. My father works as a fisherman; a typical profession in District Four. My mother stays at home, taking care of my two youngest sisters, which I often help with when I'm not at school or my job. I personally work in a small shop in the center of town, selling jewelry.

Our family is one that I would consider somewhat upper class. We have a nice home, and we have a sufficient amount of money to take care of ourselves and then some. I hope that it remains this way. This is because, even though I wouldn't fear purchasing tesserae myself, I wouldn't want my other loved ones to do that, as it would heighten their chances at the reaping. Luckily, I believe our future is rather safe in that regard. We've never really been short on money before.

My friends and I spend a lot of time together. I love being with them, as they'll all extremely kind towards me. We often just sit around and chat, which I really enjoy. Other things that I like to do with my friends are play games and joke around. When I'm by myself, I often enjoy going for a run or reading a good book.

When it comes to appearance, everyone has a flaw or two. Personally, although I hate to admit it, I do have quite a lot of stretch marks that really bother me. I also tend to end up with bruises quite often from my career training, and they don't seem to ever go away. I also have some things about my personality that I don't like. Many people seem to think that I'm too talkative, and that I show off when it comes to things like intelligence and career skills. I try not to, but I do notice myself doing that sometimes.

I've had a crush on a few boys here and there, but I've never really been in a relationship. I can be flirty sometimes, but I'm sometimes afraid that I'm pushing guys away when I flirt. I'm not entirely sure, but it does make me nervous. I've also had a few guys here and there that have told me that they like me, but for some reason, I've turned them down. I think I may just not be ready for a relationship, even if I want to be.
