LETTING GO OF THE TIMES MEMORIES WERE CREATED

determination made me feel that I needed to
give it a try. As the journey began, I realized
that my set mates had become my family.

funny part of it. The fact is that I don't even know exactly how to transfer
these feelings on paper. It is a sweet-sad moment rounding off; I have
just realized how much I love this set.

I want to appreciate my intimate school family members: Chidera Ukaigwe, Mark-Williams, Somachi,
Chisom and Nancy. They made me realize what it felt like to have a family away from the immediate
family. The boys treated the girls as though they were blood sisters, and the girls actually acted like the
little ones. When everything turned sour, at the same time, these people were always there. Nancy is the
small sister that could make me smile even in the most annoying situation. It still surprises me how she
could make me see her as a blood sister. I love this family a lot and they are people that I can't just forget,
no matter what. The fact is that every single person in the set contributed to the happiness I had in this
school. This is an amazing set.

I want to thank my junior friends who were close to me; yet knew they had to respect. They are
Chiamaka Chukwudi, Chidalu, Delight, Nene, Chimfumnanya, Esther, Ezeonu and Treasure.

I appreciate my teachers especially Mrs. Ubah, Uncle Amobi, Mrs. Igwilo and Mrs. Ezeanya. Thank
you so much for your supports.

I want to appreciate my parents for the support they gave me, financially, spiritually, emotionally and
otherwise. I don't actually know how to put it in words but I prefer to act it both now and in future. I love
you so much.

It was quite a journey. With all the tears and laughter, we made it through. All the cracks by Uzowulu,
Vivian, Nnebe, Blessing made my days. Shout out to my alma mater.

I take my last bow!
