                                                                SUCH IS LIFE

                                                      ne thing about life is that there's time for everything.  A
                                                      time to enter GISS and a time to leave.   My first day in the
                                              Oschool was an exciting and a never-to-be-forgotten one.I
                                              was enrolled in this school on 14th September, 2013 as a JSS1
                                              student.    All  thanks  to  the
                                              Principal,  Mr  Munachi  Ezenwa
                                              and Mr Nonso Ahanotu, the Vice
                                              Principal  then,  who  encouraged      Such is Life.  We
                                              and consoled me whenever I had         shall forever
                                              cause to cry.  My Junior Secondary     remain the good
                                              School  years  went  so  fast  that    set the school had
                                              before I knew it, I was writing my     known us for,
                                              Basic  Education  Certificate           notwithstanding
                                              Examination (BECE).                    the temptations,
                                                                                     hardship and
                                              Next, I got enrolled in SS1 for the    challenges we had
                                              first  time  in  my  life,  I  had  the   faced.  I am
                                              honour  and  privilege  of  being      grateful to God
                                              addressed  as  'Senior'  by  fellow    that my six years
                                              students.  Here,  I  had  so  many     in this school had
            challenges.  I thank God that I was able to pull through.  I moved on to   not been a waste.
            SS2 where we underwent prefectship, screening, leadership training
            and promotion, examination. It was tough but God saw us through.


            I was a boss of my own because I held five different posts.  This meant that everywhere I went, I must be
            leading one activity or the other. Many might be wondering what posts I had held but I won't waste time
            on that.  To my successors, I hope you would follow my footsteps and even do better than me.  Work
            diligently and conscientiously.


            I want to appreciate God for the love and mercy He had shown me throughout my secondary school and
            for keeping my parents alive to sponsor my education. I also want to thank my parents for being there
            for me and for the training they gave me.  To my Form Teacher, I say a big 'Thank You'.  I know that I
            had enormously disturbed you but you never gave up on me. I really appreciate you.

            To the class of 2019, I know that we had had so many problems.   Having you as my set-mates is
            something I would never forget or regret.  Our love for music, the fun we had, the way we read and the
            commotions we caused, Chai!!!

            Such is Life.  We shall forever remain the good set the school had known us for, notwithstanding the
            temptations, hardship and challenges we had faced.   I am grateful to God that my six years in this
            school had not been a waste.  To my best friend, Mrs Uzoamaka Okafor, my greatest regards.To my
            close friends, Lemon, Jay-Jay and Chidera, I'll really miss you.


            There  were  people  who  made  my  stay  in  GISS  worthwhile:  Blessing,  Mmesoma,  Ijeoma  and
            Chidimma, I'll always keep you in my heart.  My junior friends like Rejoice, Kita, Chidera, Okike,
            Jide, Onyia, Munachi, Ifeanyi  Mmesoma and so many others, many thanks.  I know that one day, you
            would get to write this kind of tribute. Always bear it in mind, that you once met a person like me in
            G.I.S.S.

            Finally, a jewel is leaving the great GISS.  I'm done.  Goodbye.
