Name: Marigold Luzerne Grass
Age: 17
Gender: female
District/Area: District 12
Appearance:
Dark brown eyes, so deep, thoughtful and enormous, that you'll never know what their owner is up to. Brown hair. Black eyebrows, both looking like two bows. Arrow-shaped, long eyelashes, which never let you in. A pale mouth and a pretty nose.
White skin, thin arms. Strong legs, though not athletic. One thin brade, not very long and not very accurately done. And all this is called Mary. Or Margie. Yes, that's me. And there's not much to see.
But there's much to find out. I have been hiding under this shy girl mask for ages, and I can go on fooling everyone for a thousand years more. I'll never let them know, what I really think. And I'll never let them see who I am. No one has ever managed to learn a thing about me, but I know a lot about myself and use it to my advantage.
I'm not mean or evil. I just take pleasure in acting. I love changing my face, voice, look when I want to. I love to be fully in control of my feelings, emotions and reactions. It takes a lot of quick thinking and a lot of creativity. I can even make my cheeks blush or start crying, when I don't feel like doing it, just to deceive the person in front of me and sometimes even get what I want.
Nevertheless, I'm a well-known troublemaker. I have learnt to control myself, but I still always happen to be in the wrong place at the wrong time. Most teachers hate me and half the pupils at my school think I'm a sneak, because I discover all their secrets somehow. That's why I study a lot and let everybody copy my homework - I don't want them to dislike me even more. I've found out that "Marigold" means "trouble". Maybe mum and dad should have chosen my name more carefully. I like my second name more, because it means "life" and sounds nicer. Though my two names altogether must mean "life full of trouble". Maybe it's better than just a boring life, though. A little adventure is always fun.
I am strong, but I still have something to work on. I'm afraid of mice, for example. And there are too many of them in my house, so I have to learn to take them easy. Snakes, spiders and cockroaches also make me feel a bit uncomfortable. Though they are not as frightening as mice. Maybe "frightening" is a wrong word. Mice are just so small and have long thin tails and eat everything they see. They are... nasty.

If you want to know, what I'm really like on the inside, I would say that I'm curious, cheerful and patient. These are the good qualities I definitely posess. But there is also a bad side. I often notice I'm judging people by their appearance, though I know it doesn't matter. I can't help it, so I mostly speak to attractive, smiling and quiet people.
I have always considered myself happy. I have a family, where nobody dies and nobody falls ill. I am the second child in a family of eight. I have always had a big brother, who amused, fed and protected me since the first day of my life. He still tries to save a piece of sugar or bread for me, when he can and keeps forgetting that I've grown up.

My other brothers were born one after one. I remember choosing names for them with my brother and my parents, playing with them and carrying them on my shoulders. I was about five years old, when they started appearing in our house and didn't feel very responsible. They were just sweet, little and fun to play with.
My sister was born when I was eleven already. And my attitude to her was a little different. I started helping mother with the cooking and the laundry, feeding the baby, when mum was at work. If I am only a sister for my brothers, I'm more like a second mum to her. And she loves me more, than anyone. It always made me proud of myself.
