It's the Circle of Life!!!

Soooooooo... jarrod and i went to see the Lion King (in 2d, bc that's how it's supposed to be. actually, i knew the showtime we were going to would have less people in it, which is definitely for the best, as i hate children screaming...etc, etc.) earlier today and let me tell you, that movie is such a great movie. or did you already know that? haha. but seriously, i can't remember the last time i saw that movie, even though i'm pretty sure my parents own it on vhs. that doesn't matter though. the experience of seeing it again, in theaters, was just so amazing. now, i don't know if i've become a big baby or what, but i almost cried a few times during the movie. like i was more than teary-eyed. i had to hold back pretty hardcore so the tears wouldn't fall. when mufasa died...man...it was a close one. jarrod said he almost cried then too. what's up with us? bunch of wabies is what we are. haha. i don't know what it was...maybe it's bc this time we actually understood what was going on or maybe it's bc it brought us back to our childhood, maybe both. it's strange how a kids movie can affect us now that we're adults. it's nice that we can be affect though; that these movies can make us feel. i don't believe movies nowadays do that, unless their pixar. haha. but i won't get into my movies rant. (pretty sure i've become the biggest movie snob ever...) anywho, The Lion King- SO GOOD. i know everyone's seen it, but i suggest you go see it again while it's in theaters. it's just a great experience to reminisce and be taken back by that movie. so good. sooooo gooooooodddd. (in case you didn't understand that already)
alright, so enough about the lion king. after we watched the movie, jarrod and i went to a few thrift stores. my main focus was finding my halloween costume articles, but that's kind of hard when i'm undecided on what i want. all i know is i want to be Katniss Everdeen, but there's so much i can choose from, just from being here. 1. originally i was planning on being "the girl on fire"- the outfit she's wearing when she rides out on the chariot w/ peeta after they arrive at the capital. this outfit requires a full body black leotard, (easy solutions if i don't find a leotard) a fiery looking cape and headdress. i have an idea how to make this, but in case i do choose this outfit, i do not want to spoil it bc the pics i take in that costume will be AWESOME. haha. 2. i can be katniss when she's in the arena. the outfit consists of: a green shirt, khaki-colored pants, boots, and knee-length black jacket AND the mockingjay pin. oh, also, silver bow and arrows (substitution: my bow and arrows). 3. katniss AS the MOCKINGJAY!!! omg, if i could pull that one off, it'd be so amazing. this one is pretty much an all black outfit, w/ some white and grey in different areas, a breastplate, and the bow and arrows, again. here's someone's great interpretations of katniss' outfits (http://bookkittykat.tumblr.com/post/7512653187/katnisss-wardrobe) so, what do you think i should do?? help me, please! i can't make decisions by myself. though, eventually, i'll have to choose, but hearing some feedback would be nice.
that's really all i have for today....i don't even have any pictures, which is weird. oh well. at least i updated today, only 2 days after my previous update. go me!
