Ayse - Blog 1.2

 "Learning"

Good day readers! How are you doing? I personally feel great! I am in Coffee Bean vibing to beabadoobee's albums in shuffle on Spotify and typing down this blog! Here is Meral's perspective:



PS: wearing the cap and headphones allows me to focus more on my work and blocks distractions. I promise I'm not trying to be a mysterious person whatsoever.

The First Week

Enough on that. This blog will contain 4 meetings of AEP classes since we do vocabs one week and blogs the next week, basically in alternate. So... let me talk a little about last week. What exactly did we do last week? We started classes with Contexto, and we did pretty well to tell you the truth, one would think we created the game🤪 (jk). After the quick game, we summed up our rubrics from last week in about 10 minutes. Miss Disa then printed one for each of us and so did the presentations began. Shall I give a quick 'my favourite parts' of everyone's presentation for that week? Yes, I shall. 


Starting off with the first presenter, Nurin, she did a great job! I got to learn one or two new things about her. It certainly gave me a surprise to see her beautiful sketches, especially the Eiffel Tower, which she slayed btw! I want her to draw me one of those now. I also loved how she used images that she herself took, which gave me a better understanding of what she wanted to convey I believe. The next presenter was Izzah if my memory recalls correctly. Her presentation was also amazing! I already knew she was interested in art, but not to the extent that she wanted to have her own exhibit someday! Literally the number one fan of her paintings! Next was Anis. As always I aspire to be like her when it comes to speaking in public. She has this confidence that places the spotlight on her and only her while she speaks! And I believe the last presenter was Darren. I learned that he actually watches anime, which I was not expecting. Happy we have another weeb in the room! Yeah, that was all for that week. 

The Second Week

With multiple assessments due this week, it was honestly stress over stress. I had to present my new PowerPoint once again for AEP. I did not enter prepared, but I'm sure the outcome would not have been much different. I say this now that I saw how Miss Disa presented, I'll get to that part in a bit though. But first, we of course started with Contexto. How does this game even work? I don't get it, nor does anyone else. This time around leave being the creators of the game, we seemed like babies playing a game suited for adults because guess what, it took us exactly 81 guesses with 3 hints to get the word 'iron'🥲, which approximately took 15 minutes. Leaving that behind, we went ahead with the vocab test which brought me back to pre-pandemic days, where we would say 'Please spin the wheel, Miss Disa!'. The 22 words that we had to study beforehand were very complex, even Miss Disa did not know the majority of the words. Anyways, I think it went pretty well! 


Lastly, it was the last 3 presenters' turn and of course, Miss Disa's presentation, which everyone was looking forward to. Hanis was the first one to re-present her PowerPoint. She did well and came prepared, so I applaud her for that👏🏼. It was my turn next, I did mine really quick. I am definitely excited to improve my skills in this aspect! William went after me, I honestly loved the number of images he placed on each slide,  it certainly gave a WOW factor! And last but the least, Miss Disa, that long awaiting was finally over! 


When Miss started distributing papers that she collected from each run she went to over the years, I was amazed! She had so many of them. I could see her dedication and how much joy running has brought upon her. She started explaining her journey how it all started and how much she loves doing it. It was great to watch her smile and hear about her accomplishments! I also loved how every picture had a story behind it, it made me want to hear about each one of them. Listening to her, gave me an idea of how to do my future presentations. I hope I can reach my expectation! That'll be all for this blog! Thank you, dear readers~~

Peanuts!! - Blog 2.1 - Aire M.

Welcome, ladies and gentlemen, to the world of Blogger! I am your writer, Aire Marcellana, presenting to you a blog of quality writing, containing a girl's simple hopes and dreams. Hopes and dreams crushed knowing like 5 people reads these. I do still find fun in writing these, however, especially since I love to write. Our first few lessons in the 2nd term proved to be quite fun and entertaining to write about. I got a bit stressed on our first lesson, but all in all, a fantastic start to the new term. Reflecting on last term, although I did put effort into AEP, I didn't prioritize it as much as I should've, even if it is a minor subject. I am grateful I got a good grade, yet I have high hopes for the terms to come. 11/06/23 We started off our term 2 with some good old Squaredle . Grades 7, 9, and 10 have already paved the way to finishing the Squaredle by having already completed the easy words. With 63 out of 79 words settled, our class went on a journey to get all of th...

The "Queen of Vocab" - Blog 1.5 - Aire M.

Hello... to pretty much no one. Probably no one except Miss Disa reads these blogs, no matter how much effort I put into them. I really like writing these blogs, as they are my way of venting all my feelings and thoughts out into the void. With that being said, here's the blog :) Yeah, sorry for the short intro today. I'm feeling sleepy 😪   10/02/23 Today in AEP, we used the whole 5th period trying to complete Squaredle , and in the last 10 minutes, Miss told us we'd get 7 merits each if we finished. It didn't seem like a long way off, as we just had 14 words left. We didn't get the 7 merits, but we only had... 7 words left? Still pretty good. In the second period, Miss Disa explained how exams can trick you. Well, to be more specific, questions that, if you didn't read the instructions, you could get wrong. And those questions were very easy. All you had to do was read the instructions. But somehow, even the smartest people can get tricked. (Honestly, Summer,...

Congee — Leo's Second Term Second Blog

Writing this before and after hectic weeks is truly something to be excited about. It feels nice to have 2 days of unforgettable laxness before school savages into your brain and makes it as mushy as congee (or as foreigners call it, porridge). Honestly, seeing the to-do list for next week, my brain already is mushier than congee—you can even call it water. However, this is not the time to talk about the morbid demises in the future, especially before Christmas! Let's talk history! The first Monday after writing the last blog, we were given another . . . Squardle! With 65 words and 40 minutes on the clock, we did a whopping 50 out of the given 65, which is spectacularly not very spectacular! I do not recall any of the words unfortunately, but from what the others have said, it was tough for us. I guess we just had a bad day, because the next day . . . The next day, Tuesday, we were given another Squardle! Under 10 minutes, we unveiled 25 words, which we were able to start off our l...
