The First Rehearsal(ML)

It was rainy that day. Bad ominous I thought.
I was really worried about the first rehearsal today because we only practiced twice before it. There were a lot of things that I hadn’t arranged yet and the ppt wasn’t ready. There were less than 3 hours before the rehearsal and we didn’t have extra time for the practice. I asked Mrs Yap to give 30 minutes for the practice and she agreed. The practice was always a mess. It was always noisy and disordered. Perhaps Mrs Yap expected that we had already had enough preparations. When she saw the practice, she seemed to be upset and annoyed. Finally when I threw the thumb drive to Lei, her anger broke out. She didn’t shout but I could feel the anger under her calm words. I felt quite guilty and sorry. The atmosphere was very down. I began to come to the end of the day.
The rehearsal was 12:45 and we finished class at 12. Besides, it was very crowded in the canteen in the noon. Just after I finished the meal, it started to pour dogs and cats. I felt so bad and had to wait until the rain became little. I just felt very unlucky today.
The first rehearsal started. The room was so quite that it added my nervousness. The opening seemed good. The MC and the music matched well. The advertisement went smoothly. All the bad luck went away and the result was far out of my expectation. The time was within 10 minutes and all my groupmates really performed well.
All of our efforts were paid back. I thought our groupmates are very talented at acting because we spent little time and got great result. Hope that our performance on the real variety show will be a great success!
