Character Journal: The character that is in conflict with Katniss would be President Snow. I am very upset with Miss Katniss and her actions. At the end of the Hunger Games Katniss and Peeta acted like they were "in love" with one another allowing them both to win. We have never had two winners in the Hunger Games ever. It is not allowed but Katniss made it happen. Katniss embarressed everyone at the Capitol including myself. She was also dishonest with everyone in the Capitol and to all the people what were watching the Hunger Games by acting like she loved Peeta. By Katniss and Peeta both winning it makes the Capitol and myself look weak, like we back down to the poor and they can get away with anything now. But that's not going to happen. I went over to Katniss's house and i informed her that if she needs prove to everyone in all the districts and to everyone in the Capitol that her love for Peeta was all an act and not real. If Katniss does not do this i threatened to kill Gale, Prim and her Mother. I did not like how Katniss made me look and that actions that she decided to take so I'm giving her a chance to make things right and if she doesn't danger will be ahead for Katniss and her loved ones.

Personal Journal: The conflict that i see in the first section would be Man vs. Self. Katniss has gotten herself into a bundle. President Snow came and threatened her and told her that if she doesn't prove to everyone that her love for Peeta was all fake then he is going to hurt her family and Gale. How is Katniss going to prove herself to all the people that she was just acting? If Katniss does tell everyone that she was lying during the Hunger Games how she loved Peeta then everyone is going to think she is a liar. If she tells everyone that she outsmarted the Capitol and planned to eat the berries and she knew they were not poisonous then everyone will think she is a liar and look down on her. But if she doesn't tell everyone the truth then something bad will happen to Gale and her family. I can relate to what Katniss is going through. I have been in a tough decision before and i had no idea what to do about it. I got a really bad grade in one of my classes in 8th grade and i had to tell my parents before they found out from my teacher or my report card. So i was between getting the courage to tell my parents myself and get yelled at or have them find out on their own and get yelled at. Either way i was going to get in trouble. But i decided to tell them on my own. It would be better for them to know the truth instead of lying about it and having them find out on their own. Yes my problem was not as big as Katniss's but it's still a problem that i faced and that Katniss is going to have to face. I think Katniss will solve her conflict by telling everyone it was all an act. She survived through the Hunger Games and she had to do what it took to survive. If anyone else was in her position they would do what it takes to survive. And during the games it was outsmarting the Capitol. People can think what they want about her but at least she isn't lying and she saves her family.
