An Excerpt from Surviving Sajomaco

I remember the day I first arrived at Sajomaco. I was 11 years old, and I had never been away from home before. I was scared and excited at the same time. I had heard stories about Sajomaco, both good and bad. I knew it was a tough school, but I was determined to make the best of it.

On my first day, I was assigned to a dormitory with 10 other boys. We were all from different parts of Nigeria, and we spoke different languages. At first, it was difficult to communicate, but we soon learned to get along. We shared stories, jokes, and dreams. We became a family.

The academic workload at Sajomaco was intense. We had classes from morning until night, and we were expected to study for hours each night. The teachers were strict, but they were also fair. They wanted us to succeed, and they pushed us to reach our full potential.

Life at Sajomaco was not always easy. There were times when I felt lonely and homesick. There were times when I struggled to keep up with the academic workload. But I never gave up. I knew that I was there for a reason, and I was determined to make the most of it.

I learned a lot during my years at Sajomaco. I learned about hard work, perseverance, and self-reliance. I learned the importance of friendship and the power of the human spirit. I learned that anything is possible if you set your mind to it.

Sajomaco was a challenging experience, but it was also an unforgettable one. I am grateful for the opportunity to have attended such a prestigious school. I am proud of the person I have become, and I know that I would not be the same person I am today without my Sajomaco experience.
