AEP-Blog #8

 NEW YEAR, NEW BLOG!!!

Starting of the year, for the first week we didn't have an official AEP lesson since Ms Disa was out of the country. So, we were given 2 assignments. One was a word puzzle containing the words for vocab quiz unit 9, and the other one were worksheets that were  about the topic of communication. For the word puzzle we had to find the words and also define them. I was only able to finish that one since the other one was quite challenging, especially to finish it in one sitting.

I continued the other one the next day and unfortunately was also unable to finish it because I wasn't quite sure how to answer some of the last questions.

Ms Disa came back to school the next week, and she said she couldn't take it easy on us since we missed 2 weeks worth of class. Therefore starting our lesson by reviewing for vocab quiz 9. I revised by rereading my word puzzle worksheet, since it contained the words that are in this topic that I then defined at the bottom of the paper. I admit, I was kind of panicking since we only had like 15 minutes to review, and I didn't even open the vocab website the night before. So 15 minutes to review 20 words, not that great honestly. But it is what it is. Ms Disa made us do the quiz on paper since the smartboard wasn't working hence us being unable to spin the wheel, which made me panic a little again. Thankfully, she said she will be defining the word and we will have to write which word it is. Phew! That is a bit easier to do than being given a word and defining it.

By the end, I only got 9/10. In my defense, I realised later on that the word puzzle only contained 19 out of the 20 words in the quiz. And that one word that wasn't in the word puzzle was one of the 10 words that Ms. defined. After this, we had checked some of the questions of the other worksheet Ms had given us. I told Ms I hadn't been able to answer some of the last questions since I didn't know how to answer it and she understood. Phew!

For the next day, we started of class by playing 'Contexto', unfortunately I accidently saw the answer, since it had been done and Ms simply refreshed it to do the game again, so it got cut short. We then played wordle which we did in a breeze. After that, we checked our exam practice that was in our worksheet, and unfortunately I only got 1/3 answers correct. 

Welp, that's all for the first blog of the year! See you in the next one!!!

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...
