Blog 1.2 - "Vocabulary is not my forte T-T" - Huda G11

 2nd blog of the year! 

The days feel so much longer now that I'm in senior high. Everything feels so rushed for me and though I am able to keep up with my assignments, it just never felt that same as how it did last year. To make things simple...i'm just tired. T-T

In our last AEP class we started off with a familiar game called 'diffle' but this was only for warm up. We actually did it quite fast ahahah! We then moved on to organising and finishing off our miro boards filled with new words, well, new as in the word in a different context, that we had to find the meanings of and it in a 'sentence sandwich' to demonstrate how it's commonly used. Most of our words were related to the business lexical field. 


To test ourselves, Ms Disa gave us a few minutes to look back on our words and try our best to memorise them and be able to explain its meaning and how it's used in sentences. To be truly honest,  I was panicking so much as memorising stuff is not really to my liking so I really needed more than just a few minutes. Thankfully, I had Ayesha and Alisa with me so I could somehow rely on them to explain the words that I struggled on explaining or understanding. Thank you girls hehehe <333


To end the class, we were given different words to pair up in order to form a collocation. It was extremely difficult for me as all the words seemed to go so well with each other. With many helps and hints from my classmates around me, I was able to complete the collocations though I am still not so confident with my answers as I may be getting one or two wrong. The definitions were quite a pain to write as some of them were long but I think it's good as I can always look back on the words and be able to understand a few and possibly use them in my writing as I am in the strand of ABM :D


My blog may be quite short but I truly hope that it was a good catch-up on what's been happening lately in my life :D


See you in the next one! <3

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...
