Who was the most important person that you have met, and how did it feel?

true story: a couple of years after graduating from university, where i majored in photography, i was apprenticing with a Korean photographer in my country. this particular photographer was a favorite for one of the many 'Sultans' or Kings that we have around here (Malaysia has 9 Kings from 9 different states that rotate amongst themselves to be the absolute monarch for 5 years..). http://www.malaysianmonarchy.org.my/ one day he was requested to cover an official event at the royal palace..and me being his apprentice then was of course asked to tag along too..at the palace, the king wanted to take the official portrait of the visit in one specific room which has alot of mirrors..a typical photographers nightmare. so after trying and adjusting and setting up, we found out that there is one spot within the room that is just right. so when it came to the time for the royal portrait,the king was chatting to his guests and didn't stand where he was supposed to. my Korean 'master' didn't know how to properly ask the king to move. none of the officers there wanted to help out either, and with sweat trickling from my temples, i was the one who was made to ask the king to move.. lucky me, he was in a good mood that night and didn't care about protocol that much. can you believe that? a commoner like me asking the king to do something! that was the best and the most valuable experience of my life

Hi oldchem1, yes such memories are wonderful. You are lucky to meet her. Queen and you both are pretty. I am an Indian, so it can't possible me to meet her, but happy to see her photo in the discussion.

That's really awesome...something for you to remember by. I think it must be one of those moments in school when I received an award and the Minister was there to present the award to me and some others. It was a very honorable event and prestigious; something which I will always remember.

Hi Oldchem, I have never met the queen, although the Duke of Edinburgh comes to where we work quite often, I have met and made coffee for Sir Cliff Richard, met and rowed with Sir Bob Geldof and many others in my time but I did use to live in the same area of Surrey as Cliff Richard, Tom Jones, Sue Barker, Mick Hucknell, Chris Tarrant and a fair few more so it was normal to see them out and about. Huggles. Ellie :D

I once met a high Illinois government official at my husband's grandfather's wake, they had been friends and I got to meet him, but the sad thing is I can't remember his name. I remember what he looks like but not his name. I was pretty upset that day of course because I loved my husband's grandfather very much so my mind was not all 100% there. I am sure if I had met him any other time I would remember what his name was.

Wow, that must have been something to meet the Queen. I bet your knees were shaking like crazy! The most important person I have ever met was the Cardinal of the Detroit Archdiocese. He came to give the sacrament of Confirmation to the catechists. That was important because it is not often the Cardinal comes to give a sacrament or even to say a mass at one's parish. He is much more accessible than the Queen is though. Not many 'regular' people get to meet her like you did.

lets see... I met John Tower once, he was a senator for Texas at the time You know the game "Six degrees of separation?" Well, when my dad was alive I was 2 handshakes from the President a few times...

it is a surprise for me that you tell me that you just have met a important person.be honesty,i dont have met any kinds of important person.to be an important person is not easy.

The most important person I met is my idol, a chinese actress, vicki zhao. She is very famous in china,maybe foreigners are not familiar to her. It doesn't matter.I like her for nearly 12 years. I was her in beijing of china for an interview by TV. She is so elegant and generous. Now she is mother and had a baby over two monthes. However I will support her forever.

That is such a fun story. I've never met royalty but when I was a teen I did meet the Osmonds, who were my favorite pop group at the time, on several occasions. I even played baseball with Jay and Jimmy Osmond one time. Lots of fun.

most adventurous is probably my childhood father figure.. Im honestly not quite sure what his sign was. I think he was a Leo.. dont quote me on it tho. Answer 2: Yeah I would say I am.. ive seen more than half of the states at least once, and been to Europe, seeing 9 countries.. theres still lots of places id love to go. Namely Greece. Couple others, Brazil, Russia, Hawaii, Jamaica, Bermudas, and some other South American countries.. Plus I'll see my fair share in the Marines, but mainly Middle Eastern unless I get stationed in Japan or something. Ill always choose adventure over sittin around doin nothing or whatever.. as long as I can get at least 1 other person involved lol
