 AEP Blog #2.2 “Article readers”


Hellooooo everyone! WE’RE IN TERM TWOOO! Isn’t that just shocking?? Sorry to say that I’m late for the blogs but here I am with my technically first but second blog of term 2!


Let’s begin with a recap of what we did in our last AEP class. To start off, we played this rather silly yet enjoyable game called “my grandma went to the store and bought…”. We’d have to finish the sentence, and each word or ‘item’ we said would have to be repeated by the next person. We were going alphabetically so that it wouldn’t go out of board. It was actually pretty fun, and it kind of challenged me to remember what everyone was saying. Huge brain teaser — I would definitely want to play this again.


And with my luck — we did! But this time, it was “meet my new friend, they’re very…” and the words are adjectives to describe a person. I LOVED this. It didn’t seem like it to my classmates but I really enjoyed trying to think of (or even search for) new words or synonyms for adjectives. It really helped broaden my vocabulary — especially since we’re writing a story for English.


But, honestly speaking, the highlight of that day was the articles we read in the last minutes of class. 3 articles, crazy topics, fun discussions. I mean — why would a turkey need to be pardoned? They did nothing wrong! They’re the ones getting eaten! And why are we still trying to find Nessie? I mean, it would be cool if we found her, and she is quite the legend, but it’s been so long and I just feel like people are getting too bored. Lastly, never in a million years would I think I had to imagine France teeming with bedbugs. 


Anywayyy, I think that’ll be it for this blog. It was a fun day as usual! And there were lots of things to share. Until next timeeee! Thanks for reading. :DDD

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...
