Jersey Boys

Today was in my opinion, what I will call an experimental day.

I found myself in a setting I don't usually find myself in surrounded by people I hardly knew or barely spent time with before.

Today I had a school trip that lasted the whole day, as the trip took me to Toronto to see a musical. I wouldn't get back until about 6ish in the evening. When I had first arrived at school in the morning I was unsure about how else was going. The teacher organizing the trip had invited my drama class and that was how I learned of the trip, although I was unsure about the others in my class whether or not they wanted to go as well. The group left at 11AM which meant that I spent my morning in my first two periods (Archaeology & Challenge and Change) before leaving to meet up with the bus. I figured out later that NO ONE else from my drama class had gone and it was just me.

However, I was not totally oblivious to the others on the trip as I knew a few people that were going from the younger grades. In addition, I had talked to other people and made a couple of new friends for the time being.

Before the actual show we had stopped at a restaurant for lunch. There were three choices to choose from: Pasta, burger & fries, and pizza.

I ordered the pasta, however as my hunger took over me and my newly made friends went around the table and like vultures we ate anything other people couldn't finish. After desert we ended up each consuming 6 scoops of vanilla ice cream to add on to our main course.

Jersey Boys was amazing. Nothing short of the word. It made me laugh, smile, feel proud, cry and so much more all in ONE musical.

That's a feat.

If it wasn't for the couple beside me that made me miss my own love, I'd say it was a pretty much excellent day.
