AEP Blog #1.5 " Adjacent scenarios"

Good day, dear readers! 

Today, as I sit down to pen (well.. more like type) another chapter of my life in this cozy little corner of FIS wonders,,, I can already hear the sighs of students knowing the fact this week is the equivalent of stress week. All quizzes, added with how we have..

1st term FINAL EXAMS!

Its the big boss, the first among the three. 

Regardless, as I scratch my head, gazing out the window at the.. buildings (okay.. I really cannot sound poetic in Manila) , I find myself pulling my hair out because of exam week, which is just around the corner. 

But theres always our favorite English class, AEP.

Yes, you heard it right. Nowadays, AEP is not just another english subject; it's a motivating force to be honest, urging me to rise above the chaos of quizzes and assessments that threaten to whack my sanity. It's like a room where all the weight of the land of.. well.. schoolwork lifts off my shoulders as soon as I step into Ms. Disa's classroom.

Before I dive deeper into the week's adventures, I want to take a moment to wish Ms. Disa a very happy birthday! I still cant believe I had you as a teacher for pretty much my entire school life , from prep all the way to grade 11 and soon to be grade 12! I want you to know that I read all your comments on my blogs, even though I can't always find the time to reply – the login struggle is real, but I mentally reply to them and really appreciate everything I learnt from you all these years Ms T~T

AEP isn't just an English subject; it's a place where I can make mistakes and learn from them without fear. It's a place where the creative and the analytical stay in the same place without a fire starting and the whole campus burning (unless.?) , creating an atmosphere where growth feels not only possible but needed from each of us.

One of the things I truly appreciate about AEP is our regular word games during the first part of our class. Despite myself arriving late sometimes, I still appreciate how easy it is for me and my classmates to connect without immediately forcing ourselves to create conversations with each other at 8:30 in a Wednesday morning. Instead, we train our brains and laugh along the way while Ms Disa says a random word to solve our misery since we have been stuck in one missing word for so long. 

Trust me, I'd do that for hours. 

Well.. getting myself ready for all the adjacent scenarios (hehe) for these weeks, months and gosh the entire school year; I still remain constantly thankful for the way Ms structures our lessons especially with some days being JUST seatwork.

Anyway, thank you for reading this one! 

P.S. This was the first blog so far this year that I wrote(typed) using my laptop. Feels very odd,,

    Wow...such a long blog, and I blush...and I'm also embarrassed because it's almost the end if the holidays and I have made myself sit down to fi ish coolsis. Life took over and I am also very guilty of being behind with my schoolwork.If you don't keep ontop of it daily, or get distracted ( for me this was a ball of wool, I've started crocheting again and I can do it a whole day!) it soon consumes you...I also have a poorly kitty on the verge of life and death I'm caring for..hehe yes its true but to be honest I just didn't want to switch on my computer.
    Thanks for your blog though. 😊

And So It Begins...- Chloe Lloveras- Blog 3 T3- AEP 10

  Maps have become my new enemy. I know this may sound dramatic, but I really just can't seem to like them. As an artist who loves anything related to colors and drawings, you'd think a map of all things would be right up my alley, but you'd definitely be wrong. The feeling of facing your adversary is like no other- this desperate thirst to defeat them, dying to be quenched. And so it begins... The day before the exam, we played "Squardle," but the joy it gave us upon completion was short-lived as it was replaced by the impending atmosphere of doom looming above us. I felt a pit in my stomach when I walked into the classroom the next morning. But I was prepared...or so I had thought. I only managed to score 87%, which in reality was actually a 77% because Miss Disa added 10 points to help bump up our grades. I barely passed really, but that doesn't matter now. When I had finished taking the exam, all I could think of was that it was finally over. I could relax...

AEP- Blog 3.3

 Hello hello hello there! We meet again, for one. last. blog.  Woah, it has been a ride hasn't it. A year sure does go by fast. It seriously felt not that long ago that I had written my first blog of the year. Definitely did not feel like 9 whole months. Reading said blog made realize now that I had nothing to worry about after all. That I have been proven wrong about not having fun in AEP. Sure, the work has gotten a lot tougher and was doubled to what we had last year. But hey, we're in G8 now and that's to be expected, AEP or not. And we still managed to play word games, some old, some new, and challenged ourselves in the best way possible. The seatworks we had DEFINITELY challenged me this year. But I wouldn't say all of them were so bad, only some. I really enjoyed the vocab quizzes. It really did help expand my vocabulary, and now whenever I read a book and encounter a word from one of the quizzes, I get all excited cause I know what it means now. I feel a bit sad...
