                                                          ow! Three years already? It seemed very long from
                                                          the start, but looking back now, I can tell that time
                                                Wreally  flew  faster  than  I  had  thought. These  three
                                                years  of  my  life  at  GISS  had  been  full  of  worthwhile
                                                experiences. Looking back at all
                                                the dramas, troubles, fun times,
                                                sad times and all that, I just can't
                                                help it but smile like a fool but    To GISS in
                                                still filled with gladness because    general, I might

                                                proud  to  say,  “Finally,  I  am    realized that you
                                                done”.                               taught me many
                                                                                     good things I

                                                I, myself, did so through the help   provided towards
                                                of  our  honorable  teachers. And    ensuring a

            great institution, for going extra miles in ensuring that we reach that top.
            I am indeed grateful for all your effort s and all your impact on my life.


            Yes! A big shout-out to the class of 2019. Our time has finally come. I feel very lucky to have been a
            member of such a wonderful set. This set had unique qualities which I had to explore and ended up
            adorning each and everyone of them. I really enjoyed my stay at Grundtvig because every one of you
            made it a memorable one. And I promise you that I will hold unto these memories forever. Heaven
            knows how much I love all of you. I will miss you all dearly as we all part ways.


            Now! A special shout-out to the best friend I have ever had. Chidinma Ezeh (my bestie), and to my other
            friends; J.J, Lemon, Tony, O.T.O, Sparta daddy) Zubby (Mum), Hillary and so on. You all have a special
            spot that is irreplaceable in my heart. I will miss you all the most. Even though we will part-away, the
            bond we shared will never be broken. Thank you so much for always being there for me and showing
            me the true meaning of “friendship”.


            Finally. To the people who made it possible for me to attend this wonderful school, I mean my parents
            and Almighty God who made it possible for them to provide for me, may He be adored and glorified.
            Thank you so much for giving me the opportunity to even come here and make new friends. Not many
            have this opportunity but I have been blessed with irreplaceable gifts; my parents. Thank you so much
            for your efforts and your love.


            To GISS in general, I might have criticized you from the start, but at the end, I have realized that you
            taught me many good things I never knew before. Thank you for everything provided towards ensuring
            a comfortable stay. I am really grateful.

             “I'm finally done”. I am leaving but do not ever forget that “I WAS HERE”. Don't fret, I am taking the
            NEXT STEP!!!
