this, you must be wondering, “Isn't he going to
give any shout-outs”? Well, I'm going to give a
shoutout to the one factor that made all this
happen. This one is for you, 'fate', for letting me
see the Grundtvig poster outside my primary
school, for making me take the common
entrance examination and get admitted, and for
letting me have all these amazing people as set
mates.

I sincerely don't know what to say anymore. I'm actually tired and just want to leave secondary school.
But before I go, there's just one last thing I need to say. When I joined this school in my JSS1 in 2013, I
noticed one trend. Everyone who came newly to this school always said, “I hate this school “. That was
after staying in the school for less than three weeks. I equally said such over a thousand times.

But as I moved up from one class to another, I kept regretting making that statement. It took me just two
days to realize why GISS is an amazing school, I've interacted with different types of people. Actually,
the school has taught me so many things. They include: to eat my meal in under ten minutes, even when
it is still very hot. I've also made friends 'for life'. I owe all this to my alma mater, Grundtvig
International Secondary School and also to fate. I will remain eternally grateful to the management,
staff and students of GISS. Ciao! Adios!! I am done.

God bless you all!!!
