MEETING MY IDOL
Afgan has always been my favourite
singer. I had always been thinking of how
I would feel when I met him. Then I was
suddenly hit by lightning when I found out
Afgan was coming to town for a concert in a
local auditorium. A day before the concert,
there would be a meet-and-greet event at a
local radio station. Feeling excited, I packed
all my Afgan’s CDs to get his signature at the
event.
On that bright and sunny Saturday morning, the radio station
was full of Afganism (that’s how Afgan’s fans are called). They sat
on the chairs prepared inside the radio station’s lobby. Some stood
in rows in the front yard of the radio station. A spot inside a lobby
was prepared with a mini stage for Afgan’s singing performance
and a table for Afgan to sign Afganism’s memorabilia. Finally, after
about 40 or 50 minutes wait, Afgan showed up from inside the
radio station. He smiled and waved to all Afganism who had been
waiting excitedly saying, “Good morning. How are you all?”. The
crowd went crazy. The shouts sounded like a mix of “Fine, thank
you” and screams of Afgan’s name.
Then, he started the event by singing his hit single “Dia
dia dia”. Afganisme went even crazier; they sang along with him
throughout the song. Of course, I did too. I couldn’t take my eyes
off this amazing singer who had released three albums. When he
was finished with the song, the host announced that it was time
for autographing the memorabilia. I prepared my CDs and began
to stand in the line. When I arrived at the table, I was speechless.
It was unreal just seeing him that close. I thought it was really cool
seeing him like that because he really just felt like a normal person,
which was awesome. He asked my name so that he could write it
on the CD to say “To Mia, Love Afgan”. He was also very friendly, so
I didn’t feel too nervous when I had a chance to take pictures with
him. He was just an amazing person. And it was the best day ever!
