Hi, I'm new here and finally out of quarantine. I wasn't sure what to do with myself now that my brother and I are here. I'm fifteen, but I can do lots of different jobs. I know we will need money.

Also, this world is so wonderous, so different than where I'm from. Is there some way to learn more about all the science and machines here?

Oh. Well, maybe. I'd definitely be careful about it.

I've never heard of that place. I'm from District 12 in Panem. We didn't have technology like this, but they had even more advanced technology than this in the Capitol. They just didn't let people in the Districts have any of it.

I haven't had to pay for school so far. I think it's free up to a certain point? Maybe the government pays for it?

	I've never heard of those places either. But that sounds sort of like the military at home, they had more advanced things in the capital city than they did in the country where we lived before. But the difference wasn't that great to have nothing then have more advanced than here. What does more advanced technology look like? That would make sense. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	They had windows that could show any sort of moving pictures you wanted, buttons to press that would make food appear instantly, all kinds of shower and bath settings, and really advanced medicine. Those are the main things I've noticed from what time I've spent in the Capitol. It wasn't a lot. I also haven't taken a train here to compare it to the ones at home.

Wow, food appeared instantly?! That's incredible! I heard about a microwave here that heats food in seconds, that sounded amazing to me. It can take a long time to heat food on the stove or over a fire back home.

Medicine being advanced is also great. [...] Could they grow new arms or legs if they were amputated?

We had trains at home, I don't know what the ones here are like. They were nice, since it meant you didn't have to walk everywhere.
