there is a solution. I could solve all my
problems courtesy of Grundtvig. I now
know what to do, when to do and how to do
things. I will never forget the first cultural
day that I witnessed in GISS. I was like a
wolf in the midst of sheep because I was the
only Rivers in the midst of Igbos. It made me
feel special. There were many 'ups and
downs' but I drove through rough, smooth
and narrow roads and came out successfully. Even if I don't leave this school as the best graduating
student, I know I have achieved many great things. Grundtvig is like a stepping stone to soar like an eagle.

I want to give a shout out to my set-mates, my special friends; Joy, Dim, Bill, Amaka, Sharon, Kristina,
Kosi, too many to count and a shout out to my parents Engr. & Mrs. Aprioku who had always picked me
up when I fell and provided everything I needed . Then a very big shout out to my fine and caring sister,
Sharon Apirioku who showed me the good path. She made me to understand that all that glitters is not
gold. Even when I was annoying, she ignored me. She is a sister indeed. A law in physics states that “to
every action, there is an opposite reaction. The reaction to my actions in school is wow! To my set-mates
again, I love you. Thanks for making Grundtvig a cool place. We were always there for one another.

Finally, words for my set-mates “we shall meet another day and now I say goodbye to you, my
countdown continues in 5,4,3,2,1,0 level up!! 2k19 rocks.
