Journal 1.3: Post Republic day celebration

               

               It was a big day today as we were to perform in front of our entire school! Proud that the introduction of these new activities are going to be done by us, we were all very excited, but edgy also. Our coaches gave us ribbons (saffron, white and green) according to which row we stood in, to tie to our wrist, in order to signify our Indian flag.

           



               As the drumbeats were heard we jogged to the field in the order that was decided. Congruently, the drills went on whilst the yoga asanas and formations followed (I successfully did and maintained the position of the challenging asana for 12 seconds: something I thought I wouldn't do!).Beaming at the crowd that gave us a huge round of applause and cheer, all of us bowed down and then jogged back to the gallery (where we were first sitting). Everyone felt that we did a great job so most came to us personally and appreciated.
