Chapter 77: Schedule from H*ll (1)
Ari led he entire D (2) class team into the practice room they had been using, entering and locking the door after everyone was inside.
He grabbed the whiteboard and markers before sitting with his back against the door, staring silently until everyone, including Caleb, had taken a seat.
They all looked at each other for several seconds before he started speaking first.
"I don’t know about the rest of you, but I think that our performance today was really embarrassing, especially because I think we can be better than what we displayed today. I don’t think that we should point fingers since the judges have already tackled that portion. Instead, I think we should speak about how we will improve from now until the performance day. Anyone with ideas?"
Michael immediately raised his hand, "I think that we need to put in more practice as a group and individually."
"Okay, more practice." Ari wrote it down on the whiteboard before looking around, "Anyone else?"
"Uhm, getting the words down for the song." Sachi raised his hand and spoke, before rubbing his head sheepishly, "I guess that falls under more practice."
"No, that’s fine. I think we can all agree that more practice will solve he problem, so what do you think about this?" Ari quickly wiped the words on the whiteboard and scribbled out the schedule he had thought about before flipping it around to show them.
"Firstly, let’s make a schedule to structure the practice. The PD said there are no more events apart from lessons, so starting tomorrow, we’ll meet from 5 - 8:30 a.m. for choreography practice. We’ll have 8:30 - 9:00 a.m. for breakfast, attend vocal lessons, and then come here to continue practicing vocals from 10 am -1:30 pm. 1:30-2 pm for lunch. Then, 2 pm-4 pm formation practice before Selena comes for an hour. 5 - 5:30 pm is lunch, and afterward, we’ll spend the remaining time practicing singing and dancing together until midnight. We’ll sleep for five hours and wake up and do it again. What do you think?"
