Anxiety Reappraisal                                            The goal was not to fall
                                                                       Oversized hoodies, wrong pair of socks
        First days are always full of anxiety,                         That’s how my first day went,
        This time it was boarding for me                               For all that I still had that feeling of eagerness
        I stepped inside the school building                           That strong feeling inside me!
        with thousand thoughts running.                                Can you feel nervous and anxious at same time or is it just me?
        I held my head up high,
        Full of confidence                                             Linyesha Bansal

        Not knowing what to do next
        Can you feel nervous and anxious at same time?

        I am here for a reason
        To become the better me,
        On that day, that moment
        It was the only thought circling,
        I reminded myself again and again,
        Nothing is forever
        This shall pass soon
        This eagerness
        Am I the only one with these mixed emotions?

        Hundred things were to be done,
        It was chaotic inside my mind
        Confused and bothered
        Not really sure what to do first
        I sat down, wondering if I really belong here,
        My heart replied, “Yes darling”,
        It reminded me that

        I am here for a reason

        I wanted it to be perfect,
        But it was not really my call
        Still working, still learning,
                                                                                                          Rishika, MYP-4
