INOPACAN INSTITUTE - THE LAST TIME I SAW IT AGAIN

As the I.I. hymn goes, "To your portals they all go."
Take a look at the old school and reminisce the moments when we came here every day.

INOPACAN INSTITUTE HYMN


Let's sing this together every time we have our reunion 
Sing it with your heart, whoever are there, even if you are the only one who is present there.

I continue living in the spirit of this hymn.
Try to paraphrase the lines.

I did (and damn, I failed to hold back my tears the first time I tried it)
