Then, on the day of the event, when we were with our classmates and other classes in the hall, we were overwhelmed with emotions and felt anxiety. When the judges called our name, we walked to the stage. I told myself that I had to calm down. It was not something I needed to overthink. I just had to do what I could and enjoy the moment. So when we got on stage and performed our dance, the audience and the judges cheered for us. In the end, we received a nomination as dancing stars.
