Good Day SLSU Chorale!!

It has been past four years since I joined the group. The group that makes me a better person as you have seen from those experiences you had. May panahon ng kasiyahan, may pagkakataong hindi nagkakaunawaan, pero sa huli, buo pa rin ang grupo. Medyo masakit pero kailangan nating tanggapin. Ika nga, may dumarating at may umaalis.

Just like me, I entered the group with an empty bottle in my hand, and as I leave the group, three fourth of that bottle is filled with those experiences with the group. Why only three fourth was filled? It is because that the remaining one fourth will be filled with those experiences that I would have once I return to the group.

I experienced to be a part of Tenor 1, I became the pianist of the group, I became your assistant choirmaster, and as the conductor of the group for the last performance I had with you guys. I’m very thankful that I had the chance to work with the group.

For those senior members, guide those apprentices among the group members. Be polite and be humble to those younger members. For those younger members, continue to work with the group. Always work as one. Avoid quarrels among group members. Always appreciate the efforts of those persons who worked for the group. Cherish those experiences you had with me when I’m still with the group.

Just keep on singing, not only for yourselves, but also for the group and for the school. I will miss you guys and also the group.

I don’t want to say goodbye, I just want to say “Until we Meet and Sing Again Altogether!!”SLSU Chorale is <3
