  • def leppard.
  • peach lipstick.
  • Tyler Oakley, Bex-chan, JennaMarbles.
  • Dramione.
  • The board game Sequence.
  • Cousins.
  • Fossil purses.
  • Toms shoes.
  • ankle boots with heels.
  • that moment in between waking and sleeping, on days when everything is perfect.
  • laying on the dock in the hot summer sun, reading harry potter out loud to the cousins.
  • The Hunger Games.
  • And Harry Potter, obviously.

HG rant

All I see in this fandom lately is an obsession over Team Gale or Team Peeta.

What is with you people.

The books are not about which guy Katniss ends up with. This is not twilight.

Its about fighting against something bigger than yourself, fighting for your life, and for your freedom.  Its about believing you can overcome something bigger than yourself.

I mean, I love to quote the cute, lovey things that Peeta says too, like the whole “real or not real” stuff, and when Peeta and Katniss are talking about their nightmares, but really guys, we all know that this is not the most important part of the book.  

If you think it is, you need to grow the fuck up and reread the books. Cry when Katniss volunteers for Prim and not when she breaks Peeta’s heart.  Cry during that moment right before the Quarter Quell begins because that moment with Cinna (and I’m not going to say what it is because that would be a major spoiler), that moment is what this series is about.

i follow some amazing HG blogs, but if you want some quality hunger games on your dashboard, follow nightlockk.

It’s important to not forget the real meaning behind the books.  Kids are being murdered because of their government, and if you can’t relate that to our world right now, you need to think a little harder.

Deep in the meadow, hidden far away
A cloak of leaves, a moonbeam ray
Forget your woes and let your troubles lay
And when it’s morning again, 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
Katniss Everdeen, The Hunger Games by Suzanne Collins
