Miss Aleena! - Blog 2.2 - Aire M.

I'm back mga balakubak!

(Fyi, this is a famous Filipino saying. Balakubak means dandruff, but we just use it since it rhymes.)

Welcome to my wonderful AEP blog! Miss told us that she didn't mind a long blog; she actually liked it. Aleena was ecstatic as she has gone over 700 words already. I was just glad that I could rant talk to my heart's content. I can be really talkative, so these blogs let me just talk about my experiences and thoughts, which I love since I was always interested in the idea of a journal. I've never had the time for it though.

Anyways! This is getting way off topic. And here, I present, my blog!

It's just me rambling.

We kicked things off with a small victory on our belt, demolishing Squaredle as there were only about 5 words left. Since we were so speedy, we did Quordle and cheated by resetting the tab (hehe). After completing 2 Quordle games, we learned vocab #7.

Aleena studied the vocab beforehand, so Miss made her the "teacher," making us call her "Miss Aleena." We did it as usual, 2 words being assigned to each individual. I got the words menial, meaning of lowly and degrading work, and parry, to deflect a move typically with a sword or shield.

After a 10 minute break which I used to review all the words, we had our vocab practice quiz. After vocab, we did Contexto, getting #428 in 53 guesses, being the word "pet." Padlet followed soon after, starting at 2:46.

Overall, a productive day.

AEP was off to a great start, absolutely devouring Quordle in only 4 minutes. Our happiness of completing it that fast was immediately replaced with our anxiousness for vocab quiz #7. I recall Adelia asking me the meaning for the word "ravage," which means to cause destruction.

I was called first, losing my 2 brain cells the moment Miss called my name. "May you spin the wheel please?" I said quietly, my heart banging like a drum in my chest. My word was...

Ravage.

I looked at Adelia, and we both started laughing like maniacs. "Destructive," I told Miss, high-fiving Adelia (thanks for the save girl!! <33). I got another 2 or 3 words, getting them all right, earning myself a perfect 10/10. I am very proud of myself for getting it all perfect, considering I only reviewed for a total of about 30 minutes.

Since there was 35 minutes left until AEP ended, we did a seatwork. I was absent a few times this term, so I had a lot of seatwork to catch up on. I like how AEP seatworks are structured; quite easy yet still a bit confusing and challenging at times.

I'd say this was a good day.


And that concludes my blog! Thanks for reading! I really appreciate it :))

Your reward? This image. I found this somewhere a while ago and saved it.

Love yall <33 Aire signing out!

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...
