Mockingjay

So, I just finished Mockingjay a day or so ago and would just like to put out there that I Loved the ending. It took me a little bit to come to that conclusion, but indeed I love it. The only reason why I can figure so many people didn't like the ending is because (ending give-away alert!) they wanted Gale to win, or they wanted Katniss to become president or something silly like that. Honestly, I don't think she could have ended it better. It was realistic, and everyone knowing my personality, it's pretty obvious that I would like that attribute. Haha :) I like that Katniss doesn't end 100% mentally sound. If any of us were put through all that she had to go through, I would love to meet the person who could come out of that truly sane. She didn't add fluff to the ending, she kept it true to the characters, situation, and story. All this said, yes, I loved the ending. :)

Rue's song

Deep in the meadow, under the willow
A bed of grass, a soft green pillow
Lay down your head, and close your sleepy eyes
And when again they open, the sun will rise.

Here it's safe, here it's warm
Here the daisies guard you from every harm
Here your dreams are sweet and tomorrow brings
them true
Here is the pace where I love you.

Deep in the meadow, hidden far away
A cloak of leaves, a moonbeam ray
Forget your woes and let your troubles lay
And when again it's morning, they'll wash away.

Here it's safe, here it's warm
Here the daisies guard you from every harm
Here your dreams are sweet and tomorrow brings
them true
Here is the place where I love you.
-The Hunger Games, Suzanne Collins

So, of course

My mother just wanted me to forget it. So, of course, every word was immediantly, irrevocably branded into my brain.

The Hanging Tree

"Are you, are you
Coming to the tree
Where they strung up a man they say murdered three.
Strange things did happen here
No stranger would it be
If we met up at midnight in the hanging tree.

Are you, are you
Coming to the tree
Where the dead man called out for his love to flee.
Strange things did happen here
No stranger would it be
If we met up at midnight in the hanging tree.

Are you, are you
Coming to the tree
Where I told you to run, so we'd both be free.
Strange things did happen here
No stranger would it be
If we met up at midnight in the hanging tree.

Are you, are you
Coming to the tree
Wear a necklace of rope, side by side with me.
Strange things did happen here
No stranger would it be
If we met up at midnight in the hanging tree."

-Mockingjay, Suzanne Collins

Why Bekah Likes Fox and the Hound

When you're the best of friends
Having so much fun together
You're not even aware, you're such a funny pair
You're the best of friends

Life's a happy game
You could clown around forever
Neither one of you sees, your natural boundaries
Life's one happy game

If only the world wouldn't get in the way
If only people would just let you play
They say you're both being fools
You're breaking all the rules
They can't understand, the magic of your wonderland
Hu-hu-hu

When you're the best of friends
Sharing all that you discover
When that moment has past, will that friendship last?
Who can say? There's a way!
Oh I hope... I hope it never ends
'Cause you're the best of friends

We met, it seems, such a short time ago
I looked at you- needng you so
Yet from my sadness
Our happiness grew
And I found out you needed me too
I remember how we used to play
I recall those rainy days
The fire's glow
That kept us warm
And now I find - we're both alone
Goodbye may seem forever
Farewell is like the end
But in my heart is a memory
And there you'll always be

Goodbye may seem forever
Farewell is like the end
But in my heart is a memory
And there you'll always be
