Thoughts from Huzaimi

Dearest Band,

I sincerely apologized for not saying this earlier because I simply did not have enough time to write my thoughts down due to some business I had to attend to that night.

There are a few people I would like to thank in broadening my knowledge of music and love for it but also, how to lead ones life. I personally feel that this people have not just thought me to aim for the skies and dream big, but also the true meaning of friendship, appreciation, and determination, not just in band, but as a human being.



Firstly I would like to thank our wonderful band director Mr. Terry Lee for helping the band grow from a no band to an elastic rubber band. Not only Mr. Lee has taught us the wonderful world of music but at the same time, values of life which individuals have to take responsibilities in the near future. I have always looked and see Mr. Lee as the father I wish I had however he is rather too young to be my father, hahaha. He whose horoscope is the great Leo is known to be the King of the jungle, the lion. A lion will protect his cub and family at all times and that is what Mr. lee is. He is and will always be the man who protects us and pay his devotion towards the band. For all of that Mr. lee, I Huzaimi would like to extent my sincere thanks for bringing my fellow band members and myself this wonderful journey in my life. I am very grateful for what you have done for the band and me.


Secondly, I would like to thank Mdm. Tan for joining in the band due to the fact of her interest and passion for music. She has taken the band to new heights in terms of discipline and organization within the band itself. A woman with and iron fist should not be a force to reckon with. For she, would smite anyone who dares disobey her. However no matter how strong a human being is, everyone has a soft heart in them. For that Mdm Tan I shall never forget the time we had a very in depth conversation during the trip to the SYF competition. She is in fact the teacher who had taught me the value of being strong, and firm into leading a section. For that Mdm Tan You shall not be forgotten.



Thirdly I would like to thank Mdm Teo Lin and Miss pan for everything they have helped on organizing events, issuing funds and taking care of all the paperwork of the band. Is it this people that we as band members do not see much in action, but they are the ones who played roles just as important. The only time I remember me having a conversation with Mdm Teo Lin was when she was marking Chinese essays. Hahaha.


As for Miss Pan, I will not forget the night when you brought all the alumni’s outside the AVA room to have a little chat. You shall not be forgotten as well.


Lastly, I would like to thank the following. I would like to thank Rui Xiang for hanging around with me just to lend a ear to listen too, thanks man, Fikri for always asking me for opinions and thoughts, you remind me of myself when I was your age, sometimes everyone needs time to reflect back and you Fikri provided me with that so thank you. I would like to thank my percussion section for going through all the Ups and Downs we faced and giving me a hell of a time cracking my head and brain to lead you, on top of that none of you thank me so sad hahaha. But still it was a great ride. I would like to thank Christina, Tomimi, Faiz, Nikhil, Nizam and anyone who have at least talked to me once haha. You guys sure as hell know how to have fun and make me crack. But keep it in controlled, hahaha Lastly I would like to thank Mac Donald’s restaurant for opening 24 hours, without it, conversations with my shy but determine follower, Ridwan would not be possible. Remember what I have taught you young squire and never be afraid to challenge yourself.

As My last note, I thank every single band member, including the irritating Sharon, for sharing his or her experience with the band. Without you guys, I could have not found my true calling.

Love you all and none shall be forgotten.

With love,

The passionate musician, Huzaimi
