Blog 1.2 - 1st Ring

 Hi hii and welcome to another blog!!

I woke up late this morning (oopsie) so I had to do my makeup in a Starbucks bathroom, but besides that I had a pretty smooth-sailing morning. So what did we do on the second week? Firstly, we did another game for warmup of coursee! We played the same game as last time, "Diffle". It was fun and compared to last time, we got the word relatively quickly.

Soon after, Miss Disa had us fix up our little Miro board of all the vocabulary we learned last week. I was mostly done with it but I stayed to edit a few of the sentences and whatnot so that it'll be neater and easier to read. Right after we were done finishing up the board, Miss Disa has us do a little vocab quiz!

In summary, she put all the words we learned in Miro into the wheel of death, and what ever word pops up, the group that handled that word will have to explain the definition and how that word is used in context. It was pretty easy for me since I memorized the definitions for my words already. It was difficult to answer all the words by myself though because my teammate was Dilara and she already moved :(

It still went pretty smoothly so I can't complain too much.

Right after that, Miss made us do a little activity where we pair up words to make collocations. I had some difficulty with this one especially because I wasn't all that familiar with the different words and phrases combined. (Like- Junk bottom? What?). And especially since I had to painstakingly write down all of the definitions too... *sigh*

Nonetheless, I managed to finish up that assignment so it's not that bad anyway.

What do I want to improve? My ability to keep myself awake perhaps. And my intuition so that I can get better scores when making collocations haha

Discussing with my classmates was an option but that is also a gamble in and of itself. 

That's it for now. 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...
