Sillabub visits Montreal

Good news and bad news.
Good news,
I made the musical!! I don't have any idea who my character is...but I made it. I'm Sillabub. I think it's like a different name for Jemima , but Jemima is in it. So maybe they had no parts left to put me in... anyways. I don't care if I have a small part. I'm just glad to be a part of the show and I'm completely shocked. Ashley called and told me and I didn't believe her until I saw the cast list with my own two eyes.
Bad news,
I won't be in school until Monday, the 15th. I am going to Montreal. I am excited about this because I get to see relatives I haven't seen in years, and see my mom who I miss more than words can express. But I'm not going for all joyful reasons.
I'm sad because I will miss the first week and a bit of the new semester resulting in a homework pileup and everyone already has their select friends after a week, also I will miss musical related things, which is a total bummer. I hope they don't kick me off the cast!!!
Oh and I start theatre arts next semester so that's scary.
I take the train at 5:00 tomorrow night and arrive in Montreal at about 8:00 in the morning. It's gonna be a long train ride. Thankfully I have books to read.

Post Script: I've always wanted a stranger name because I feel like my name is too plain. Mr MacGillivray told me in so many words that I was unique enough and didn't need a strange name. The classmates in the immediate area seamed to agree. I always thought I was more of a Layla or Petunia but his theory is nice. If I had a strange name people might expect me to be odd but since my name is common people can be pleasantly or unpleasantly surprised.

Until next time, Ciao.
Sillabub
