ULTIMATE GIFT
It's my last days in Dili after more than 3.5 months in here...
And guest what I got for a gift to remember (and to brag for
)...
This idea was actually only came about a week or two ago when Marco, Herminia, maun Hugo and myself went to Merkado lama to see the bazaar to celebrate the independence...
It turned out that that very hour the president was also visiting it...
So when he passed us and greeted us, I said to Marco that I wanna take pictures with him...
But than again he was surrounded by guards, plus I didn't have the guts to ask him in front of those people...
After that, as I kept nagging Marco to contact her friend, mana Sicha, the president's secretary, to ask whether I can come to his office to take the picture, mana Sicha advised there might be a chance on Monday as he'll be in the Democratic fields to celebrate the world's children day...
So we went there at 5pm and found out there was also Xanana Gusmao...
We had to wait for about an hour until the event finish *plus nervous, lots of sweat and scary looks from his 'Vin Diesel' bodyguards* to finally took the picture...
It's true what the people here say, he's really friendly and nice...
Thanks to Marco, Herminia, maun Hugo, Guna and mana Sicha for all the help to made this come true... I won't forget it...
