AEP Blog #2.3 “The vocabs!”

 


Good day dear readers! 


This blog will be a little different; aside from the whole “exam week is coming up” stuff that I’d probably bring up if I wanted to make this like a normal blog but then I thought again — what better way to introduce you! The reader! With just exactly what our midterms will be focusing on today.


Basically, our midterms are crosswords — so ms tells us the words to learn then we have to put them in the crossword. So, Ill talk about each of the words here today! 


We have our own papers that we were allowed to take home. With that being said, we have choice to study the words since all the meanings are placed in the paper already. Unit 5 is all about describing people, yourself or others.


Starting off with word no.1: affable 


Someone who is affable makes me think of the word “ABLE to talk to others easily” they are the type of people who get along with others without a problem whatsover. They are friendly, polite and very approachable.


Word no.2: aloof


This type of person seems like someone who is a little hard to engage in conversation. The type of people that just stare at you blankly and reply coldly. They are slothful, lazy and tries to do as little as possible. Aloof kind of sounds like clouds; who just sit in the sky without a care(and damn).


Word no.3: belligerent 


These people are probably people who gang up on bullies. They are always looking for a fight because it makes them feel better!  


Word no.4 benevolent 


They are very good willed and generous with their time. They want to help others because it makes them happier.


Word no. 5 capricious 


These are the type of people who are bound to have sudden changes in their mood. Completely liable to their quick change of attitude and their behavior.


Word no. 6: cynical 


Someone who sttubornly defends their own views. These are the type of people that cant accept their answes are wrong or will only work with what they think is right during group projects. 


Word no.7 dogmantic 


Word no.8 eccentric


A good word to describe these type of people is “the black sheep”. They are rather weird. The type of people that have an odd or peculiar personality.They may have strange belief and behave strangely all the time. 


Word no.9: erudite


I think of it as a word similar to graphite which teachers use to write! These type of people are knowledgeable and scholarly.


Word no. 10: gregarious 


Now affable and gregarious may be similar,

however the key difference is these type of people are fond of being SOCIABLE around others; which doesn’t necessarily mean helping them.


Word no. 11: Impetuous


These type of people do things without care. Simple (hahahaha) 


Word no. 12: Indolent 


Someone who is slothful and lazy! They are the type of people that are very hard to deal with in friendgroups; maybe they have a hard time getting out of bed.



Thats it for the first part! Theres another group of words which are: 


Insolent (someone who is rude)

Irascible (someone who is short tempered) 

mendacious (someone who is dishonest) 

mercurial (someone who is lively but unpredictable) 

pedantic (someone who pays attention to detail) 

pensive (someone who is deep in thought) 

pernickety (someone which is overly fussy) 

quixotic (someone who is a visionary) 

recalcitrant (someone who is disobedient) 

sanguine ( someone who is cheerful and optimistic) 

scrupulous( someone who is principled) 

steadfast ( someone who is faithful to something) 

stoic (someone who is impassive) vociferous( someone who is noisy)



Thats it for now all, thank you dear reader!

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...

Blog 3.1 - moving too fast? - huda g11

  From juggling multiple homework and exams to participating in the musical, parliament, varsity and maintaining a social life, the days seem to blur together in a relentless stream of busyness. It's easy to get caught up in the chaos and lose track of time, which left me constantly feeling like having to keep on picking myself up again to start the next new thing. Despite the chaotic nature of this school year, it's important to take a moment to pause and give ourselves a small break. I think that is where AEP comes in line. With the moderate pace of learning new vocabulary, which I have found to be very useful considering I've passed by many familiar vocabs as I go on with my studies ehehehe, AEP gives me a sense of pause to my hustling life with its conversation-filled lessons incorporated with productive discussions on the words as well as the inclusion of what I would see it as “old-style” learning. The idea of bringing back the usual norm before covid of ‘pen and pape...

i stopped counting the blogs at dis point

       Ah boy here we go again Another week, another blog about random stuff. Holy hell everything moves so fast that I feel like I could take a nap and suddenly miss 21 different events. it's a little odd when you get pulled out of your usual schedule and are forced to do a practice exam but like 'they' say: "practice makes perfect." also been rewatching RVB, kinda sad cuz Rooster Teeth decided in a Hail Mary attempt to earn some of that sweet moolah that they should make a large majority of their shows paywalled on yt and you have to use the inconsistent official Rooster Teeth website that is absolutely plagued with stunky add that no one wants. yeah more ads than YOUTUBE ,  AND THEY'RE ALL UNSKIBBABLE BECAUSE OF COURSE THEY ARE AND YOU GET 4 OF THEM EVERY EPISODE (some at the start and then some midroll ads). I know it is to push people to join their site and subscribe to FIRST but Oh ho hoh man... that is a level above despicable.
