A Day in the Life of...Evie!

As I promised, I am starting the "Day in the Life" segments with myself. Since my life is uninteresting, I'll give you a walk through of a usual day. But for the others, I'll try to catch them on a day off! ~~ the accomplished stalker, Evie, will stalk one member of SERA00 for a day and report everything in their private lives! Today we will stalk...myself! Does that make sense...how can I stalk myself O_o
Let's start!

7:00 AM
Alarm clock blares in my ear. I shut up the alarm clock with a smash that belongs in the boxing championships. Back to sleep.

7:30 AM
Rome shouts in my ear, "Wake up, Evie, for SERA00's sake!" I know she put that last part in just to annoy me.
"Go'way, Romy..."
"Miss Avery said-"
"I'm up."

8:00 AM
Breakfast in the dining hall. We love our chef; he doesn't just make the classic eggs and bacon. Today was noodles, dumplings, and tons of fruit. And, not to be forgotten......tea. Believe it or not, we're not just one happy group. Different members usually flock together. The most noticeable- the popular posse, the group of girls, mostly first generation, including but not limited to the fabulous four. They eat sooo much. I guess they work hard enough to burn off all those calories throughout the day.

8:45 AM
Back in dorm, getting ready for school. Slips on uniform, grabs book back, runs out of room, realizes I'm not wearing shoes.

9:00 AM
Sitting through ninth grade English- I'm in a class with all the other C ranks. We have girls younger than me all the way to girls older than Sassan or Luna. Our curriculum is enhanced (read: extremely hard) to make up for the short class time. DOMINANT EFFECT. Someone tell me why knowing dominant effect will help me in life.

10:30 AM
Close English, open Science. It takes many years for the light from stars to reach us, so by the time they do...we are only seeing memories from the past. ...whoa, deep...

**second day classes**(just for you to get an idea)
9:00 AM
Onto Math. [3/16 + (3/-4)] x (-3/8) ÷ 1/4 = 27/32. Oh my great- let us move on.

10:30 AM
Geography...colouring maps. Oh, joy.
**back to the actual segment**

12:00 PM
Lunch! Grabbed a nice roast beef sandwich with some other girls. Watched Fracken expertly grab five cups of tea in each hand to bring back to her table. Have some free time before next class.

2:00 PM
Vocals class! Now we're getting into the exciting classes! Ms. Ryan always starts of the class with some vocal warmups (brr-brrrrr-brrrrrrrr!). Then she gets our voices going with short silly childrens' songs like Row Row Row Your Boat. Ms. Ryan refines our skills with repertoire songs, and then of course, we get to the SERA00 songs! It's always the most fun part for me. "Hit the high note right on," Ms. Ryan coached. "You girls have a tendency to rise in pitch until you hit the note- this causes you to be flat at the beginning of the note. We've gone over this, girls, come on!"
"Good job, Evie! Girls, remember to keep smiles on your faces for your fans while you're singing, like Evie," Ms. Ryan smiles at me. I beamed. Then, she said, "Oh, but Evie? Watch the ends of your phrases. You tend to chop them off sharply." All proudness has gone elsewhere.

3:30 PM
Dance class with our choreographer, Alexandrea. Her moves are amazing, and when she demonstrates them, it looks impossible. But somehow she breaks them down into learnable segments, so that by the time we've got it down, I must say it looks amazing ^_^
We're doing the new choreography for our next single.
"Alright, next four beats, is this." Alexandrea launches into some fast up-down-spin-what that looks quite pro. "It's quite simple." She gets the usual murmur of doubt from the girls. "This is how it goes, girls. From the previous step, you end up with your right foot slightly behind your left. Now, step forwards with your right, bend your knees. One motion, that's beat one. Beat two, thrust your right knee high up to the left, follow with your arms. Beat three, use the momentum from your knee to spin in a full circle to your left, on your toes. Arms out to your side, perpendicular to the floor. Beat four, arrive back at vertical stance with hands at your side."
Did you get any of that?
"Ready, girls? One, two, three and four again one, two..."

5:00 PM
Exhausted and sweaty girls emerge from dance class. Free time, time to shower.

6:00 PM
There's no set time for dinner, as the girls all have different night schedules. It's a drop in and eat sort of thing. The sizzling steak with melted butter looked reaaaly appetizing, but I have a show tonight, and I don't want to barf onstage...
I grabbed a fried rice and a -behold the terribleness- tea!

6:30 PM
The TVs in the complex flicker to life and music fills the air - the daily show has begun and they are broadcasting it live for the rest of the girls to enjoy. Seeing the same thing every single night does get boring...eventually. But as per usual, the 00 rank members open up the show with six songs. They are the only ones who consistently perform every night. It is another full house, like yesterday, and the day before that, and the days before that.

7:00 PM
Hearing the 00 ranks singing still, I head towards makeup and wardrobe. Unlike what the fans might think, we do not have personal makeup artists and hair stylists for our day-to-day concerts. No, everything is done by ourselves!

7:15 PM
Lining up in formation, waiting for our stage appearance in fifteen minutes. Team Aurora is performing tonight; Sassan is in the lead and the audience will love her. Along with familiar faces like Rome and Kansas, we quietly line up behind the second curtain in a triangle formation.
Sassan is at the tip, with four rows behind her. Here is the formation (the letters represent the rank of the girl):
.........A.......
.......A A......
.....B A B....
...B B B B...
.C C C C C.

7:30 PM
Curtain rises.
We sing our six songs, nice big line up, a bow and a thank-you-very-much-everyone!
There's usually an encore call that comes quick after we leave the stage, so for the encore the performing team takes up the call with the song most shouted for by the fans.

8:30 PM
Done for the day! Time to tackle homework...go to bed...and repeat ^_^


Hope you guys enjoyed this segment! Please support SERA00!
