Blog 2.1 - New Term New Me (Nurhanis Grade 12)



Okay so how do I start. It's been a while since I've written something after all the "drama" in the first term. Anyways a new term means a new chapter being unfolded. "A fresh start" people say. I don't know how many times that phrase has been used. 

For the first AEP classes, it went a lot (like a lot) smoother than thought. I was scared to enter the class at first because of the tension we had last term. The layout of the class changed. It felt more like a discussion table than a class which I think is a good thing. I also love the idea of implementing back the "traditional" way of learning where we don't use technology. I mean technically we still do but not as much. 

I don't think people know what happens when they wear a certain outfit. The image or personality is being reflected to what we wear whether we are conscious about it or not. And that is what we learned about. I mean discussed about. Our first lesson was very chill to say the least. It was like self-studying almost. I enjoy the feeling of holding paper. I don't know why but i was quite excited when I first got the handouts. 

I don't study psychology but I am very interested to learn anything about it. It's very interesting how there are researches being done trying to correlate the way we dress and how people will "judge" us, especially in interviews. There's already standardized colours that we apply when we are going to an interview. There's this so-called formal outfit.

My handout focusses more on the psychology as to why uniforms are important in a business workplace. Some careers may not have any specific uniform required but still, there are dress codes that they will have to follow. We also need to understand that each uniform has it's own purpose like for security, protection, comfort and much more. 

We did some individual reading and understanding of our own handouts before we did a discussion table. Like a little hotspot/podcast kinda vibe. It was very enjoyable for me excluding the part where I had to talk about mine because if you know me, I don't like talking in front of people. I like listening more. But the whole sharing and discussing was very fun. I liked it very much. Anyways, I think I'm just repeating myself at this point. 

So far so good. I don't want to jinx myself. Let's keep this up Hanisssss!! <33

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...
