                                                                           valuable lessons I learnt are still a part
                                              wish I could say I remember a lot   of my life to this day. Learning how to
                                             I of things that happened during my   walk and speak intelligently was fun
         three years at Wesley Girls’ High School, but alas! I do not. But I can truly say I made great   and exciting. So was learning that every surface which can tolerate H2O can and must be
         friends that I can call “sistas” today.                           scrubbed! That every nook and cranny must be cleaned!

         I am a food connoisseur and simply love to sit and have conversations about anything and   The drive for excellence could not have been inculcated any better in my opinion, and
         nothing.                                                          the belief that we are intelligent and simply the best and can do all things has continued
                                                                           to “keep my head up when all about me are losing theirs ….” (Rudyard Kipling) even in
         Nelson Mandela inspires me. I watched a documentary on him years ago and felt that if we   the most difficult situations I face every so often. I am a proud Gey Hey girl through and

         My favorite quote is “Follow your heart but take your brain with you.”   I enjoyed the company of the many friends I made in our School; The naughtiness and
                                                                           sharing meals together. I will never forget Mr. Amenuku, to whom some students still owe
                                                                           essay marks! He said that “man is a gregarious being” and that the only difference between
