French oral test tomorrow, I dig up my most precious
memories of the enchanted week I worked as interpreter
during the NEPAD conference. Though no chance of
recounting that magical experience, it is inspiring to
remember how we scurried about preparing venues
and plenary for the meetings and workshops.
We placed delegates’ name tags on their chairs; Corney
called a name, whoever had it (we’d collected them
randomly) ran to the designated chair and affixed
it – the best ushering experience ever. It was
also fun to welcome delegates,
Take them to their chairs, facilitating communication between
Francophone and Anglophone delegates – I enjoyed talking
about French poetry with the Minister of Education too much
and preferred engaging in topics like Precession and Black
Matter that comprises more than 95% of our universe.
I felt energised, enthusiastic, motivated – may the memory of
that life force suffusing my whole being be an inspiration
whenever recalled in all its glory!
