Harry Potter and Roadtrips

Wow, its been awhile. Last week was the midnight showing of Harry Potter! I'm so sad that is over. My childhood went away with the credits. Not to mention I cried during the movie. If you know me, you know that I NEVER cry. Ever. We were so lucky to have Andrea saving spots in line starting at noon. We got there around 430. The people in line with us were super cool and way fun to talk to. Katie got there around 8 and we went and got ice cream! Thankfully we got let into the theater 3 hours early!  Not to mention we had the best seats in the house AND epic people sitting next to us. I dressed up as Hermione and found a Ron! So, of course we took a picture together.

I was laughing in this picture but for the life of me I cant remember what was so funny. So yeah. There is Hermione and Ron.

Then, a guy dressed up as Snape showed up! You can imagine the excitement when I saw him.

He makes a pretty darn good Snape is you ask me. Loved this guy!

The movie was actually pretty good! There were some things that werent as true to the book as I would have liked but it was still awesome.

The next morning Brenna wanted me to see it with her that night (so I saw it twice in one day haha)

We got bored haha

Yesterday I got back from a road trip! We went to Devils Tower, Mt. Rushmore and Martins Cove. Lots of time in the car and lots of sagebrush but it was fun. Too many pictures to post of that so I'll just post one for now. The rest will be on facebook.

Yes, my hair is in a ponytail. This never happens. Enjoy it while you can

Thank you JK Rowling :)

Today it finally hit me that the Harry Potter stuff is ending next week. Obviously its not ending permanently because I'll still be able to watch the movies whenever I want and read the books when I want but there will be no more. No more new movies or books. Because of this, when this next movie comes out and when the credits are rolling a part of me will be ending and rolling away with the credits. Harry Potter has been a part of my life since it first came out. My dad bought the first book for Christmas the year it came out and he read it to me. I was perfectly capable of reading it on my own but he read it with me. I still remember the funny ways he pronounced some of the names when we were reading. He read the second book to me as well. The third book and forward I read them on my own. When the 7th book came out my dad had to buy two copies because he wanted to read it just as much as I did. I remember being lost in this magical world and just how much I loved this world JK Rowling had created and how into the books I got. The first movie came out when I was 11. The same age as Harry in the first book (and movie.) I remember wondering what it would be like to go to Hogwarts and be friends with Harry, Ron and of course Hermione. When the first movie came out, my dad found that a lot of the names were wrong in the way that he was pronouncing them and for me, that was really funny. Each movie came out when Harry and I were the same age (except this last one.) The second one when I was 12, third when I was 13 and so one and so forth up until these last two. I was 18 when I was part 1 and am now 19 when I will see part 2. Harry Potter is not just a part of my childhood, it IS my childhood. I have an awful memory but I remember when each book came out. I remember reading each book at home and at school. I remember when each movie came out. I know who I have seen each movie with. These past 10 years or so have been so awesome with these books. I dont think JK Rowling fully realized what she had done after the release of the first book. I have found a role model in Hermione and hope one day to be even an ounce like her. Severus Snape was a hero and will continue to be a hero. Never will I forget this series. It will stay with me till the day I die and beyond. Harry Potter will be the bedtime stories for my children and they will see all the movies. The next generation will know Harry Potter and the magical world in which he lives. I will miss this series very much and I guess it didnt register in my head all those years ago that this series would eventually end. After I finished the 7th book for the first time I remember I was very sad about the series ending but knew I had movies to look forward to. The movies are now coming to and end as well. My childhood is ultimately coming to a close. I wish I could thank JK Rowling for the childhood that she gave me. I wish I could thank her for the world she gave me to turn to when I couldnt handle the real world. She and these books ARE my childhood and will forever be a part of me.
