Dear
Diary,
Today in Hillview after Recess, the whole school was sent
to the Auditorium for an important function. It was lightly decorated all except
for the parts by the pans in the right-hand section of the stage. We had soon
found out that the energy minister, Mr. Kevin Ramnarine was coming to host an
Energy Conference. They made two advertisements to show the students in the
auditorium. The music was lovely so I was
looking forward to seeing if it would appear on television.
The Steel Ensemble had to play the National Anthem to start
off the conference. I felt quite proud to play it. The next surprising part was that Ms. Francesca
Hawkins was there. It took me three looks over to final recognise who the person was since she did not mention her name. There were no programmes given for this function.
At the end of the conference, they had food made in little
plastic containers. So, then I saw Miss Hawkins. I just wait in the back of two
boys who was speaking to her. She was answering a question that to be a reporter it is
possible to have a second job at the same time. And then it was my time.
It took me a lot of courage to as for her autograph, Lolz. She looked into her black cloth bag they gave us and
she signed a page in a notepad they gave us too. She tore it out and gave it to me. I went back to
class to have lunch and I carried with me a large smile on my face. Unfortunately, the bell went and we didn’t get to have our hunch. So, Mrs. Mahase our English
teacher allowed us to eat during that period.
