Blog 1.4 - 3rd circle (How did Dante do this???)

 This is a lil late oopsie- but hey no hard feelings. This is all to catch up from Blog 3 anyway.

So many suspensions!

SO MANY SUSPENSIONS!!!

I'm not gonna lie. The first... say 1-2 days of suspension was great. I love not having to come to school. I love having holidays. But by the 4th day, I got worried. EXTREMELY worried. Mind you, we barely had any time left during the week for classes and to review especially since Midterms was the next week after that. I was really praying that they might push the Midterms honestly, but that was clearly just a pipe dream. Regardless, I crammed all my studying during the suspensions and therefore had a wonderful time during exams (I lied, I did nothing during our suspensions and I was absolutely miserable and I only crammed everything the weekend before the exams.)

I think my midterms went rather fine, actually. They weren't easy. God knows they weren't easy. But I didn't fail any and all my Coolsis grades were above 90 so I can say that I stayed afloat somehow. I could've done better, clearly. I could've spent more time prioritizing my work and studies. But hey, that's all just something to work on in the future, right?

Of course, having suspensions means we missed quite a lot of time for AEP. Our midterms was scheduled for the week before the exams and honestly I was STRESSING to study all our words and collocations for that day. Thankfully, Miss Disa was a godsend and moved our midterms to the week after the main midterms week. Okay. Fair. Manageable. I was pretty thankful that she was able to let us review just a few weeks longer.

Anyways, how was the AEP midterms? It went... quite well actually. I got full 30 points! (Yay Yay Yay!!!) And that's why you cram, kids! (I'm kidding, please don't. It's very unhealthy.)

Oh and also! Miss Disa asked us to do the little meditation routine for our project. I won't sugarcoat it and act like I liked it all that much. It was good, really. Helped me relax and helped me sleep. But it's not "my thing" per se. It was definitely a fun thing to try out but I most definitely struggled staying awake during all those sessions so I'm not sure how much benefits I actually got from them. 

Anyways, what did we actually do on September 27? I've been rambling on and onnn about everything before that but what happened during our normal classes? Well, we started a new topic on vocabularies: Employment! To be honest, I preferred our previous topic relating to politics and the like but this one isn't bad too. We played this Wordle game called "Squaredle" where you match up words (Wow, how new!) I personally like this one quite a lot because it's more challenging but frankly it makes more sense than Contexto. We did some light seatwork and that was about it for that day!

Wow, that's a lotta words. I've rambled quite a lot, haven't I? Well, thank you for reading anyway!

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...

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)

Nurin’s AEP Adventure #1

  ⋆·˚ ༘ * Time is passing like a speed jet. I’m a senior now and that is incredibly hard to get over in my head. There’s something undeniably strange about growing up, and I’m going through every minute of it. AEP is the same, classes are comforting and chill. I’m soaking all the general knowledge I can get in AEP class and I’m going to put in extra efforts this year as it’s my last. Expectations this year will not be up the roof but at least to the point where I can reach. I hope AEP will continue to flourish my skills in multiple things and I sure will put those to use in college!!  ⋆·˚ ༘ *
