Mery Makai: my family

hi guys, I wanna share with you all, my story of life.

I wan born from very simple family, DASARAI and BETUAPA in the middle of 1980' or exactly on 20th August 1980 around 09.00 - 10.00 am..and was baptized on 19th April 1981, after 8 months..(seems too old). I am the 9th children of this two dearest person: Antonio da Silva and Augusta da Silva. My birth place was WAIDORA, the name which I use for this blog. I really don't know what is the meaning of this name..but the WAI means BLOOD...so I was thinking it might important place. Our house was around by rice field and it was very beautiful place...we had two big horses with white skin...every evening I use to ride them..well not really ride...I was just help my mom to bring them back to house so the next morning, they will bring them to green pasture...for the whole day..... I really miss this 2 horses..

I was leaving there until I reach 2 half years old, because in 20th June 1983 we came to Dili, live in the land of my uncle (My daddy youngest brother, Tiu Casa (Gaspar Sarmento)) and we rare to go back to Ossu, at least if we were in holiday. I had 10 siblings. We were 11: 9 girls and 2 boys, but unfortunately my 5 sisters passed away when they were very young. The youngest one died in my mother womb.. I remember they by name: ZULMIRA, OLANDINA (I look like her), ANGELINA, ANJO and SONIA ( in car accident, I, my daddy, my grandma (Alda) and herself) and she and my grandma died. It was terrible day for my family...only Sonia I knew her very well...because we were always together..she was my best friend....if she still alive she might be 28 years old now...and very pretty one..
