ICAMe Back!

Yesterday I accompanied my cousin-cum-sister Camille for her enrollment at her school (and was also mine years ago) ICAM or Immaculate Conception Academy of Manila. I used to study there from kindergarten to second grade, and then transferred to ESPS until highschool. Although I've spent few of my school years there compared to my stay at ESPS, still, I have a special connection with ICAM, primarily because most of us in our family went to that school. My titas, even my mother spent her elementary and high school years in ICAM. Imagine that? The school has aged, but what's so nice is they have kept the "family culture" and virtues.
Going back to ICAM for after about a decade felt very nostalgic. It reminded me of my elementary and kindergarten years, how my teacher reported to my mother how talkative I was during class hours, how elementary school boys take their turns to run through the hallways to ring the bell they're carrying, meaning, it's either a break or the next class is about to start. New buildings were built, but a lot hasn't changed at all.
ICAM is the Manila branch of other Immaculate Conception Academy schools, like ICA Greenhills. It is ran by MIC (Missionary Sisters of the Immaculate Conception) and it used to be an all-girls school during my time.
