Blog 1.1 - Adi's inferno (jkjk)

  HI HI HIIII AND WELCOME TO A NEW ACADEMIC YEARRR!!!

Oh god.

Here we go again.


There are many things to love about finally going back to school. I was getting bored and lonely at home  with my 10 cats and zero hobbies. (It's really odd to say that studying is my hobby because it makes me look like a worthless nerd with no friends and no life but the reality is I genuinely don't do anything but study.)

Not that I didn't enjoy the summer break though. I mean, I enjoy sleeping till noon, staying up late, and binging several Netflix shows but it really does get boring after a while. (Remind me to get proper hobbies for the next break.) I believe that I should be given time to rest my brain but when my brain power is not used once in a while, it starts melting and the brain goop will start leaking out of my ears. I'll be nothing but a zombie with a beating heart. Or maybe a vegetable. 

Vacation was fun though. I went travelling with my dad but I did still spend most of it at home. It was pretty sad. 

Anyways, new academic year, new academic me? Wrong!! New academic year, same old academic Adi. Let me tell you, being a Grade 11 does NOT change anything about me. Being a junior is really not that different than being a sophomore. Of course, we have strands now which means less subjects overall but it's still a hassle (6 periods of chemistry a week?!). And now we have our classroom on the second floor (Thank the Gods!!!!).

Only difference I can point out about me personally is how I'm waking up early and getting ready properly like doing my hair and makeup so I don't look dead when I come to school. I've started eating breakfast too and I like to think that I'm a lot healthier physical-wise compared to last year. I've gotten into the habit of being a little more independent now. It feels great!

Enough about me. How is AEP? What did we do on our first class?

We did mini mes! I love drawing so I had quite some fun to draw a mini version of myself. I had trouble deciding on a design first because i have not drawn myself in 84 years (joke lang). But I eventually started panicking when Miss gave us like 5 minutes to draw. I'm a detail oriented person so I panicked quite a bit. "I NEED TO DRAW HAIR FIRST" as I yelled to Miss when she took our papers. Apparently they will be used for a new board point system she calls the "freedom points".

I forgot to mention that we played a new wordle game before that. "Diffle" it says. It was alright. Me and the class had fun but we struggled at it for a little at the start. 

What else did we do? Oh right. We started on doing vocabulary. We read through a few sentences and we decided on the words most fitting to fill in the blanks. After that, we researched the meanings and sentences that have contexts to describe the meaning of the word before putting all that information down in Miro. It was harder than it was supposed to be but Dilara was there to help me.

Alright, That's all for this week! Thank you for reading!

IM THE MAP! - Janek - Blog 2 - T3 - AEP 10

Although maps have always held a peculiar charm for me, a fascination sparked during childhood by watching episodes of Dora the Explorer and her indispensable map, my relationship with them has evolved. Previously, a map was a guide to travelling to places, a tool for discovering new café locations on trips, or simply a way to marvel at rather weird corners of the globe. However, my recent academic assignments have altered my perception of maps, making them less of an object of intrigue and more a source of stress. Essays have made maps worse! Before, engaging with a map never entailed writing an essay. If my father discussed a historical map, I’d happily delve into a verbal explanation rather than penning an analysis. But now, as a student in an Advanced English Program, essays have become a standard expectation. Tackling these assignments has been a significant challenge, turning my once enjoyable encounters with maps into a draining task. It’s clear now that the essays, not my exhau...

Miss Disa is back! - AEP 10- BLOG#4- JANEK

Now that the exams have finally concluded and the stress has lifted, thanks to the break and the high AEP spirit, it seems inevitable that a blog post is in order! The past weeks have been some of the most unusual and unpredictable I've ever experienced in AEP. With a few new faces, Miss Disa's absence, and sudden activities, let's delve into the latest updates on AEP. A Sudden Disappearance? On January 7, just a day before AEP's classes resumed, I felt a sense of fear. Fear that I might have forgotten something, a feeling I often experience. Despite this, I had to enter the class with confidence. However, my expectations took an unexpected turn. Miss Disa was nowhere to be seen. She had apparently left for the UK, and has not yet arrived in the Philippines. This had left many of us  confused, yet simultaneously relieved. No work, no stress! All we had to do was sit in the Filipino class doing nothing. Initially, that's what we thought, until a notification popped u...

Nurin’s AEP Adventure (Term 3 #1)

Hey blog!!! Under some ciscumstances, I have relapsed into my old habits of procrascination and I’m really not proud of that :,) But that’s okay, I’m still in progress and of course I’m gonna have ups and downs. Embracing any chance to change myself for the better, always. Anyways, IT’S TERM 3 ALREADY?!?!? My my, time flies like a speed jet to space. I’m like a leap away from graduating and that thought scares me, in an exciting way. I cannot even imagine yet what the future holds for me and I’m eager to find out. For now, nothing much is going on except for preparations of the musical production on March 9th. So I’ve just been really busy with dance trainings and rehearsals here and there. Expectations are really high for the Grade 12 so we have to give it our best and perform to our fullest potential.  I have been putting off works in the last moments of previous term. I got my Cambridge exam result and it brought me back down to my dark pit, I never want to get out of there like...
