Short Blog Post #3

I want to use this blog for a little reflection on our world right now. It’s crazy because it’s basically The Maze Runner and The Hunger Games combined. I know it’s not as extreme but there’s a correlation between the two with disease and survival/uprising. In The Maze Runner there’s a disease that took over the world leading to many other things but the main takeaway is a disease outbreak across the globe. Then you have The Hunger Games where it started with uprisings in the country and obviously led to other things as well, but like The Maze Runner there’s a main takeaway, the uprisings. In our world today, 2020, we’re met with a collision of the two worlds. We have a disease outbreak that everyone seems to have forgotten about, and an uprising through our country leading to other countries now. In my years of fantasizing of living in those two series I don’t know if I like it. I miss how it was a few months ago, I miss civilization, I miss my memories. Now I’m left looking at pictures of people in masks and the chaos that has arisen in the streets. I will say I do agree with this movement, just not the best timing with a worldwide epidemic.
