In Suzanne Collins' novel "The Hunger Games," when Katniss thinks that Peeta wasn't "Hob the way the rest of us were," she is referring to the fact that Peeta did not experience the same level of poverty and hardship as the residents of District 12, known as "the Hob." Peeta comes from a merchant family and therefore did not face the same struggles for survival as those living in the poorer areas of District 12. This statement highlights the socioeconomic divide within the district and underscores the differences in the characters' backgrounds and experiences.

That depends. What do you mean by first event? If you mean the cornucopia, then it makes Katniss become angry/annoyed at Peeta. If you mean when he joins the Careers, then it makes Katniss hate Peeta and wish for his death. If you have a different event in mind, you need to be more specific.

When Katniss was hungry she looked through Peeta's trash and is mean mother drove her away. Then Peeta intentionally burned loaves and took a beating so he could give them to Katniss. (Also they were in the same Kindergarden school and above and Peeta noticed her but she didn't notice him). Katniss finds Peeta in the book, right after Claudius Templesmith announces 2 tributes can win. She finds him on accident really, just following the stream, hoping it will lead to him and almost steps on him because he was camouflaged so well.
