            Making  it  to  the  senior  classes  was  good.    Belonging  to  the  science  class  was  my  dream.  But
            consistently making good results was demanding because at this level, things had become extremely
            difficult.

            I want to say a big 'thank you' to all my great teachers for the love, care and understanding that they had
            shown to me from my first day here.  Sometimes, they did punish me but I understand now that it was
            for my own good.  If not for them, I couldn't have learnt as much as I had.  It is a pity that I will be
            leaving some of them like Mr. Linus, Mr Osakwe, Miss Nnoli, Mr. Okolo and many more.


            Finally, I would like to thank God Almighty, the giver of life.   He is the reason why I am alive to witness
            a day like this in my life.  It wasn't easy at all but He made a way for me where there was no way.


            Once more, I say goodbye to you all in G.I.S.S.
