HARRY POTTER AND THE DEATHLY HALLOWS PART TWO IS THE BEST MOVIE EVER

SPOILERS SPOILERS SPOILERS

Just so everyone knows, I will be spilling some "secrets" here. So if you haven't read the books (in which case, you deserve spoilers...) or are waiting for the movie, I suggest you stop reading... Now. Right here. Stop now. Why are you still reading??
Siiigh, it's your own fault if anything gets spoiled.
Now. The movie. Best. Fucking. Movie. Of. All. Time. I was absolutely blown away. I'm a huge Potter-nerd, but still. It was so. SO. Good. I fucking loved it. I never cry at movies, EVER, but the half the movie I was bawling. When Snape died, I started getting teary eyed. Which surprised me, because I always secretly wanted Snape to be evil. When he looked at Harry and said "You.. You have your mothers eyes." I LOST IT. It was so perfect.
Noooo!

That scene gave me a new appreciation for the character of Severus Snape. He's just a confused guy who lost the girl he loved, not only to another boy, but to a cruel cruel fate. I'm sorry I thought you were evil, I love you now. <3
From there, there wasn't a second where I wasn't crying. There was some laughter in the tears (like McGonagall saying "I've always wanted to use that spell!) and joining in some applause ("NOT MY DAUGHTER, YOU BITCH!" and Neville killing Nagini. EPIC scenes.) which is the best part about going at midnight. But the whole movie was so well put together I couldn't help but cry. There were some scenes, like when Harry was walking to his death, where it was all silent, and he was alone, that just showed the hopelessness of the situation so strongly that even though I knew what was happening, I was actually worried Voldemort was going to win. The whole movie was just so powerful, it was amazing. Oh, and who could forget Ron and Hermione's kiss?
It happens!! I just can't find a picture...

Oh my god, it was so good. Everything was perfect. But I couldn't accept my childhood ending, so I started reading the books again. Finished the first one in a day, no problem. I think I have it almost memorized now. x)
I'll miss you, Harry! You were my best friend growing up. I'll make sure you're loved in my house for generations to come. You all can bet my children will be raised on Tales of Beedle the Bard, mark my words.

As for the actual premier itself, it was wonderful! I was a sort of half-hearted Tonks, simply because of my pink hair.
Terrible picture, sorry...

My shirt says "Keep Calm. It's gonna be totally awesome." If anyone recognizes this, you're my favorite person ever. For those of you who don't know, it's A Very Potter Musical, brought to you by Starkid. For all you Gleeks who like Blane/Darren Criss and don't know Starkid, SHAME ON YOU. Look 'em up on YouTube. AVPM, AVPS, Me and My Dick, and Starship are the best musicals ever.
ANYWAY, my friends did my hair...
And I have no idea how she did the hair bow, sorry. ;;^^ I met a girl who was dressed like Teddy, she sat next to me. And she also goes to Aveda! And loves Doctor Who... and Miyazaki... I think I love her. So, sorry Sam, but another girl's gonna steal your girlfriend. It happens sometimes.
Sam and I played Harry Potter hangman while waiting for the movie to start. It was a good time. We went to Chipotle before, and still managed to be like, fifth in line. Due to a little... Sneaking around the crowd... We got the best seats. It. Was. Awesome.
Siiigh, I want to go see it again.
In conclusion, Harry Potter is awesome, and I think I found a new way to do my hair.

Curls make the bangs look a lot better.
Well, that's all for today.

Love, "Tonks"

Pink Hair and HARRYPOTTERTONIIIIGHT!!!

OHMYGODHARRYPOTTERCOMESOUTTONIGHT. Sam and I are going at midnight. I'm so exciteddd. <333
I seriously can't believe it's all coming to an end. I grew up with Harry! The first book came out when I was five... But I didn't start reading them 'till I was in... Second grade? And I've gone to every movie on the first day, and two (5 and 7.1) at midnight. AND, I've gone to the release of book 5,6, and 7 at midnight. In costume and all. I'm getting all sentimental... There won't be any more Harry Potter things to look forward to!! Except, of course, the giant, expensive box set of all the movies (with special features!) that I WILL be buying. Aaaah, I can't wait for this moviiie! It better be wonderful. And I know it will be, they always are. Except maybe Prisoner of Azkaban... But that's a rant for another time.
ANYWAY. I also have new pink hair. See?
It's pretty cute. I used Special Effects Cupcake Pink, a tiiiny bit of Manic Panic Electric Banana, Some Manic Panic Virgin Snow (about a 1/2 or 1/3 ratio to the Pink) and then diluted the crap out of it. 2 parts dye, 1 part conditioner. I'm happy with the results.
I'm still kinda iffy on the Bettie Bangs. I love them, then I hate them, then I'm okay with them... I'm not really sure how to feel about them. But I think I might just let them grow out, as opposed to trimming them all the time. I'm not so sure.
With my new pink hair, I may just say I'm Tonks at the premier. c: I know what I'm gonna wear.. I'll be sure to post a picture in my next post, which will, without a doubt, be about how amazing Harry Potter was.
OHMYGODI'MSOEXCITED
