             It was the 12th of November when our Rami-
        lo Assembly was scheduled. I was really excited and
        scared. I was using the bus to get to school. When we
        arrived at school I started feeling anxious and I wanted
        to go home as quickly as possible. I was very nervous.
             I went inside my classroom. I found that some
        of my friends were also nervous. After some time, we
        had to change into Newari dresses. We had separate
        rooms for girls and boys to change. The boys changed
        in the teacher's room. It was not cozy. Our teachers
        also made us wear some makeup, which I did not like.
             Then we went to the A-level building. We had
        been assigned a room. We stayed there until it was
        our turn to perform. Our first item was a Nepali poem   and it also went very well. The whole
        called “आमा”. Then it was our Newari dance. I was a   show went very well and everyone ap-

        coming closer and I was really scared. I was playing   so did my family.
        the role of a dog named “Bob” in the drama. It was
        time and we went on the stage.  When we started, I
        didn’t feel scared. I pretended that there was no one
        there. That really helped. The drama went really well.
        During the drama, my heart was beating fast. Our     - Blaze Shrestha
        last item was a Nepali drama called “Bagh Bhairav”. I
        didn’t have any role in it. My friends performed well
