Games

was not wasted. I must first and foremost thank God, the Greatness

that gave me the ability to be here. It must be

attributed to the people and Great Being that impacted my life in such a manner that I am

able stand here and give this speech. At this institute, I gained life changing experience and matured

far quicker than I would have if not enlisted into this institute. Together, we can

work to make this a better world, and I can only hope that I have impacted at least one

beautiful life that has roamed this wonderful earth. I put my academic abilities

to test, and often times I was challenged to exceed limits which I thought I would never

reach. I just pray that

everyone may experience the true joy that I have experienced today. I must also thank my mother and father, because they

gave me the best education throughout my childhood, but more so, they enrolled me into

an academy known “GAMES”, which stands for “Georgia Academy of Mathematics,

Engineering, and Science”. I learned how to cope with my problems in a better way and the program

taught me to never give up. Once again, my gratitude towards

the committee and my fellow human being cannot be expressed in words. I attribute most of my success to this great program and

recommend it to anyone who is able to experience it. I was able to finish my final two years of high school in a high school atmosphere,

and therefore I completed my bachelor’s degree and preceded to my master’s at a

phenomenal pace. I, however, am not the only one who has won this award. The impact of the program was not only in the classroom, but also

outside of it.
