You'd think by now that Mina would have Event Committee running like a well-oiled machine, but life keeps throwing them curve balls, like setting them up to throw the biggest dance ever and then giving them the least setup time so far. But Mina isn't cowed by hard work or having to shout at anyone who idles for even a second.
Boxes need to be carried! No no NO, those are the wrong decorations! Backdrops have to be pinned to the walls! (Ignore the whining of the people in the paintings!) Balloons have to be blown up! Table and chairs have to be set up, and wrapped with colourful ribbons in a PRECISE ALTERNATING PATTERN! That tablecloth is uneven! Who has all the supplies for the bar?! You've got a wand, work on applying these stars to the ceiling! No, now you've put those stars too close together! Oh my GOD, someone get those people out of the cafeteria so we can set up the stage! Pillows! Masks! Streamers!
The quietest Mina ever gets is when she's working on the charms for the raining confetti. It doesn't really need her personal touch on it, but after the Winter Formal chandelier, she's not taking any chances with the spellwork. Despite time constraints and Mina's tendency to make everything so much more frenzied than it needs to be, Event Committee ends up pulling it together in time for everyone to run back to their cabins and put their finery on.
