I got up and get dressed for the day.
It was THE day.
The day where it all begins.
The day that will determine my life,
Change my life,
Forever.

I left my room,
And headed to the dining hall.
I saw my parents at the dining table.
Fear crept into my heart.

Should I have breakfast?
Or should I just leave.
What should I say to my parents?
Will I cry?

I slowly sauntered across the hall way,
Towards them.
They saw me,
And gave me an assuring smile.
I smiled back at them.
We had breakfast,
And I left for my big day.

I got there,
And I saw everyone lining up.
I grabbed my stationeries,
And went straight to my spot.
This was it.
The time has come.

My hands were sweating.
My head was spinning.
My feet were trembling.
I knew it.
This was gonna happen.
Tears trickled down my face.

I promised to sail through this day,
With high resilience.
Though I knew,
I would break out,
In cold sweat.
