Well, my anticipated trip that I've been waiting for ever since I got the permission form was today. We got on the coach bus (I sat with Sam. ^^) and we drove up to Stratford. It was an hour or two, but oddly enough, it went by quickly.

Once we got off the bus, we were told that we were free to wander around and check out some of the stores in downtown. Sam and Chantal stuck with me, and we went to the Tourist area to grab ourselves a map so we wouldn't get lost. I'm glad I recommended that before doing anything else. I never bought anything. We were actually bored for most of our exploring.

Then we went to see West Side Story at the theater we walked all the way up to for 20 minutes. The performances was so epic!! I loved it! The choreography was amazing, the acting was too - and I loved the musical pieces. I was thinking about my mom the whole time throughout that performance, though (she loves musicals just as much as I do), and I even told her when she picked me up when the bus arrived back at my school that she would have loved it so much. She was disappointed that she never went. She remains determined that, if another musical comes up that I'm going to for another field trip, she's going to - no matter what anybody else says. XD I wish I could've brought her back something...

The third good thing about all this is that I've got a lot of sparking, influence, and inspiration to continue on my Juliet Perspective now. I never worked on it when I was on the bus, but I have most of the weekend to catch up and work on it, which is good.

I wish you all could have came! D: Oh well. ^^ Wish you were all pocket-sized.

Aw, Bonnie, if you're anything like me (which I know you definatly are! XD) you would have loved it... Everything was spectacular. I hope my mom gets another opportunity, too. Any broadway/musical lover would have adored it.

Oh, Emily! If you have never seen the movie called the Fiddler on The Roof, you certainly need to. It is an old classic musical about a Jewish family and their cares.  The father sings about how he would act "If I was a wealthy man" and it's about the lady who sets up marriages for the kids and how the one daughter loves a boy other than the one who has been chosen for her, and how she wins the father over....it is a fantastic fantastic movie.  Try to rent it and if you can't get it locally, I am sure you can pick up a cheap copy on Amazon.com. or somewhere...you won't regret it!
