Miranda continues to swim at the pond with her friends. She brings her brother one day and realizes how much he is struggling with all of this as well. She also thinks about how much she hasn’t talked to her friends, and decides to pay them a visit. Her brother is now at baseball camp where he is working on a farm and getting full course meals for every meal. The shortage for food in town and in houses is dramatically growing low, and families learn to not talk about food or ‘private life’ like others would in everyday life.
As far as reading goes for me, I am beginning to read by myself on my own time. I usually do during my study hall when I sit in the library. There is a couch right by the window which is super relaxing and motivating to my reading; I am about half way through my book, and am now starting the Hunger Games in hope to finish before the midnight release in Dell Rapids!
