Blog 1.3 - Getting used to it. [Izzah] Gr12



Writing our Future.

 We are now working on our Cover Letters and our Resume. Ms. Disa gave us a document on tips and templates for us to learn from. Starting my cover letter was pretty hard, however after reading for examples and looking at templates, I’m getting the hang of it and actually starting to enjoy it. Writing my resume was quite fun, it was like looking back into the past and my life in school, kinda nostalgic. However, it was pretty uncomfortable at first, writing only good things about your self feels a bit awkward, however I’ve gotten used to it and realised that maybe i am not such a inactive person. Doing this task has made me realised that i should maybe be more active and participate in more organisations and activities to benefit my future. I should partake in activities beneficial to my resume such as being in organisations, varsities, participating in the Model United Nations.




Getting back on track.

Term 1 is almost coming to an end, I’m starting to get the hang of doing my assignments, although not on time at least submitted and done. The term start was a  rough patch with what felt like hundreds of piling work and disappointed teachers. Recently I’ve been talking about my problems and getting advice on dealing with my problems. One key tactic that has really helped me is working and completing tasks in school instead of my house. Since I’ve been really struggling to start my work and completing my work at home, I really do work better and more efficiently when I’m in a school setting. I've really dedicated only 2 hours to school at home, excluding studying. Instead most of the time at home is usually spent for my free time so that i don't feel very overwhelmed and get burnt out. I have a daily schedule now consisting of a earlier sleeping time, 11pm. My younger self would be PROUD. Furthermore, I’ve been trying to wake up ealier, during sunrise, however, major fail. It’s nice to have things complete now, i have less self guilt and can finally focus on what i really want to do without thinking about school work. School work feels more enjoyable now rather then it just being a task.

yet another blog for this week

 yet again we do the thing where we type what we remember about the stuff that happened this week. So, there's not much tbh, there isn't much going on other than I picked up EP again since I think I'm suffering withdrawal with notoriety getting taken down and I'm cooking some video I made with someone showcasing some stupid shenanigans. So yeah is fine cruising so far (but so far)

Short. Sweet. Simple! - Chloe Lloveras- Blog 1 T1- AEP10

      Back at it again! The new school year has begun and AEP along with it. But this year, it comes with a twist: a much more jam-packed schedule and more essay-writing. Did I mention that the vocabulary quizzes are back and that blogs will be more frequent now? No? Well, you're in for a treat!      We hadn't even met for the first session yet, but we were already juggling assessments like a syllabus quizlet, a "what's your English level?" test, and even a knowledge quiz about IELTS writing task one, something I haven't encountered before. When our first meeting did commence, it wasn't until a week later due to the heavy rainfall and strong winds so classes were canceled. As you might've guess, we were already behind and AEP hadn't even begun yet!  Before starting, Miss Disa established the basics for the new school year: 1. Every meeting will begin with a word game with a five-minute time limit. If we don't finish in time, we'll still mov...

AEP BLOG 3.1 - Summer Rose S. Valdez

           The past couple weeks have been a whirlwind of maps and musicals, and it's quite fun.          March 5, 2025 - I Went on A Vacation...Somewhere      We began with a unique warmup this time.  By turns, we all had to say a new place on the map.  Each person has to retrace the steps of all the previous and so on.  I did not do well, but I didn't jot down notes of everyone's locations on my notebook anyway.  It was a memory game.  Afterwards, Miss taught us how one can remember things by remembering a place they visit often - by associating the different keywords with different objects or areas.     After that, we moved on to worksheets.  These worksheets involved maps and places and tenses.  For some reason, I forgot the difference between the past tenses.  Thankfully, though, I remembered what passive tense was.  Simple English fundamentals like types of...
