So yesterday, Wednesday was the beginning of the high-level segment of the CSD.  The Secretary-General Ban Ki-Moon gave  a speech in the General Assembly, and in general things are a lot busier. More people, more urgency in the air. 

Anyways, funny story. Yesterday afternoon while waiting around to discuss youth lobbying, there were a lot of people in the general area. There were security guards, and the conference room 6 sign said "closed meeting". We thought, hey whatever, there's lot of people but there's food over there and they are mooches. Then, as someone left the room, there was a mad dash to a small person.  The 'mass' is  trying to interview this person. It took us quite some time to realize that it was actually Ban Ki-Moon!  

So I am proud to say I was within 20ish feet of him!
