AEP Blog #1.2 “Fresh new ideas for the dusty mind”

 Good day dear readers! Today I bring to you a blog that may not be as miserable as the first one; but rather an inspiring one to those who are in need of a special read in the middle of the week. 

I am not so sure how long I’ll keep this blog, but I’ll try to keep it’s length coherent with my standard… so lets welcome our topic of the day! 

“Fresh new ideas for the dusty mind”

The first week after-school can be rather exciting and full of possibilities! You meet your friends and catch up with them, see how your teachers are to mentally plan your schedules, look for plans that could possibly make your school year a little more fun..but once those first 2 weeks of school ends, the sudden rush of disappointment and laziness hits. For some reason, the flowers that show up when you enter the school building have now turned to ugly little moss. The citrus fresh air you used to smell upon entering the classroom have now been replaced by an ugly-sweaty smell. ‘Ah yes, this is definitely what the real school year will be like’ is the conclusion many students make. 

Although they may be right for the most part. 

BUT! 

There is always a way to change your perspective. 

This was me during the first 2 weeks of school, and now looking back I find myself in a rather unpleasant situation since my bed seems to vacuum me into itself to make me not get up on a school morning. Classes have now become ‘class-like’ and behold my school plans have now seem a little duller. 

You see, I have really thought about how to make my future school years a little better. This will last for the entire school year if I don’t change anything — I’ll be stuck in the same miserable hole for the next 150+ days. So there is a plan that I formed, and this plan was only made possible because of AEP. 

“Be consistent with your blogs” 

Yes, exactly. I find myself seeing comfort in creating these types of blogs. During the past few weeks in AEP, we mostly tackled and got used to our very new schedule, Ms gave us new plans, new goals and new ideas. All of which we have to keep up with. 

I find AEP as more than just an ‘English subject’. Perhaps its the weight of my shoulders being removed as soon as I enter her classroom, or maybe the same exact Vivaldi’s pieces playing on repeat since last year. It feels like home, a comfortable learning space where I can make mistakes and learn from them without a worry. This type of respect really makes me want to do better in AEP and give actual time to review. However, as a student , I find myself having a hard time to manage my tasks — so I’ll have to work on that during the coming weeks. Surely enough, before it ends up getting worse. 

Thats it for this week, see you all in the next one! 

P.S. We made little drawings of ourselves in AEP, they are so cute — I really cant wait to see how the points go!

AEP BLOG 3.1 - Summer Rose S. Valdez

           The past couple weeks have been a whirlwind of maps and musicals, and it's quite fun.          March 5, 2025 - I Went on A Vacation...Somewhere      We began with a unique warmup this time.  By turns, we all had to say a new place on the map.  Each person has to retrace the steps of all the previous and so on.  I did not do well, but I didn't jot down notes of everyone's locations on my notebook anyway.  It was a memory game.  Afterwards, Miss taught us how one can remember things by remembering a place they visit often - by associating the different keywords with different objects or areas.     After that, we moved on to worksheets.  These worksheets involved maps and places and tenses.  For some reason, I forgot the difference between the past tenses.  Thankfully, though, I remembered what passive tense was.  Simple English fundamentals like types of...

Blog 3.1 - moving too fast? - huda g11

  From juggling multiple homework and exams to participating in the musical, parliament, varsity and maintaining a social life, the days seem to blur together in a relentless stream of busyness. It's easy to get caught up in the chaos and lose track of time, which left me constantly feeling like having to keep on picking myself up again to start the next new thing. Despite the chaotic nature of this school year, it's important to take a moment to pause and give ourselves a small break. I think that is where AEP comes in line. With the moderate pace of learning new vocabulary, which I have found to be very useful considering I've passed by many familiar vocabs as I go on with my studies ehehehe, AEP gives me a sense of pause to my hustling life with its conversation-filled lessons incorporated with productive discussions on the words as well as the inclusion of what I would see it as “old-style” learning. The idea of bringing back the usual norm before covid of ‘pen and pape...

i stopped counting the blogs at dis point

       Ah boy here we go again Another week, another blog about random stuff. Holy hell everything moves so fast that I feel like I could take a nap and suddenly miss 21 different events. it's a little odd when you get pulled out of your usual schedule and are forced to do a practice exam but like 'they' say: "practice makes perfect." also been rewatching RVB, kinda sad cuz Rooster Teeth decided in a Hail Mary attempt to earn some of that sweet moolah that they should make a large majority of their shows paywalled on yt and you have to use the inconsistent official Rooster Teeth website that is absolutely plagued with stunky add that no one wants. yeah more ads than YOUTUBE ,  AND THEY'RE ALL UNSKIBBABLE BECAUSE OF COURSE THEY ARE AND YOU GET 4 OF THEM EVERY EPISODE (some at the start and then some midroll ads). I know it is to push people to join their site and subscribe to FIRST but Oh ho hoh man... that is a level above despicable.
