Usagi Help!!!!

Something horrible has just occurred.

Rocky came into the lab singing "The Hills Are Alive With the Sound of Music" and gave me a "revised" version of my schedule. Minus the two unwanted study halls. Having replaced them with CONCERT CHOIR!!!!!!!!!!

I don't sing. Well. At all.

Concert choir? How does

Concert choir? How does martial arts equal concert choir? Ah, Rocky...

You can sing, you just don't think you can. If you want to change, talk to him again. Ask for something specific.
