AEP-Blog #9

 SECOND BLOG OF THE YEAR! LETS DO THIS!!!

Starting of the first lesson of the week, we warmed up with Squaredle. And surprisingly we managed to find all 70 words in one period!!! YAY US! Then, we reviewed for vocab quiz 10. The word that was a bit challenging for me to remember was the word upbraid. I just couldn't seem to get the definition in my head.

 After that activity, we did a worksheet as our final assignment for the day. The topic was about science and maths. EUGH! Not that I find it bad or anything, actually no it was kind of bad. I don't think we should talk about those subjects in AEP. BUT it was what the worksheet was about and we did it anyway. Honestly it was quite tedious work to do, and I may or may not have done things ahead than most others even though Ms repeatedly said not to. ehhehehehheehe My least favourite activity was 'Part 2:Question 1' where we had to skim the long passage and label sections for what they refer to. I just felt like length of the passage could've been shorter but that's probably just me being lazy to skim the whole passage. We didn't have time to finish the whole worksheet so we'll probably finish it in next week's lesson.

For the second lesson of the week, we once again started with Squaredle. I'm going to be honest, Squaredle is my least favourite game in AEP. This is mainly because the amount of words we usually have to find are a lot. Like, a lot. And when we don't know any more words we just stare at the board for a while. Which I don't really enjoy doing. Or it could just be because my attention span is extremely short and I have no patience. But I guess the good thing about this game is that it does teach me new words that sometimes stick with me. So there's that. 

Anyway back to what happened. We only had 26 words to guess this time which is not a lot compared to the amount of words we have to guess in our previous games. And we managed to find all the words! Again! We had trouble finding out what the last word was which is 'Sepia' which apparently is a sort of beige-y color. I feel like I've seen or heard that word somewhere before but just forgot it was a word.

Next we did vocab quiz 10 that we had reviewed the day before. We did the 'wHeEl of DOoM' this time since Ms's board was fixed. Unfortunately, I did not do so good this time. The word I got when I spun the first time was 'personable', and I said it meant something that was owned by someone. To which Ms said was a good guess but not a right one. The word 'Personable' actually means pleasant in manner and appearance. And since I got it wrong I had to stand up. Dang it. Thankfully, I got to steal a word from someone else so I didn't have to stand for long. The word was 'Veritable' and basically means something that's factual or true. For my second spin I got the word 'Impending' which I also got correct, thank goodness! The word means warning or a threat.

That's all from me for this blog folks. Have a good one and see you in the next blog! BYE!!!

Peanuts!! - Blog 2.1 - Aire M.

Welcome, ladies and gentlemen, to the world of Blogger! I am your writer, Aire Marcellana, presenting to you a blog of quality writing, containing a girl's simple hopes and dreams. Hopes and dreams crushed knowing like 5 people reads these. I do still find fun in writing these, however, especially since I love to write. Our first few lessons in the 2nd term proved to be quite fun and entertaining to write about. I got a bit stressed on our first lesson, but all in all, a fantastic start to the new term. Reflecting on last term, although I did put effort into AEP, I didn't prioritize it as much as I should've, even if it is a minor subject. I am grateful I got a good grade, yet I have high hopes for the terms to come. 11/06/23 We started off our term 2 with some good old Squaredle . Grades 7, 9, and 10 have already paved the way to finishing the Squaredle by having already completed the easy words. With 63 out of 79 words settled, our class went on a journey to get all of th...

The "Queen of Vocab" - Blog 1.5 - Aire M.

Hello... to pretty much no one. Probably no one except Miss Disa reads these blogs, no matter how much effort I put into them. I really like writing these blogs, as they are my way of venting all my feelings and thoughts out into the void. With that being said, here's the blog :) Yeah, sorry for the short intro today. I'm feeling sleepy 😪   10/02/23 Today in AEP, we used the whole 5th period trying to complete Squaredle , and in the last 10 minutes, Miss told us we'd get 7 merits each if we finished. It didn't seem like a long way off, as we just had 14 words left. We didn't get the 7 merits, but we only had... 7 words left? Still pretty good. In the second period, Miss Disa explained how exams can trick you. Well, to be more specific, questions that, if you didn't read the instructions, you could get wrong. And those questions were very easy. All you had to do was read the instructions. But somehow, even the smartest people can get tricked. (Honestly, Summer,...

Congee — Leo's Second Term Second Blog

Writing this before and after hectic weeks is truly something to be excited about. It feels nice to have 2 days of unforgettable laxness before school savages into your brain and makes it as mushy as congee (or as foreigners call it, porridge). Honestly, seeing the to-do list for next week, my brain already is mushier than congee—you can even call it water. However, this is not the time to talk about the morbid demises in the future, especially before Christmas! Let's talk history! The first Monday after writing the last blog, we were given another . . . Squardle! With 65 words and 40 minutes on the clock, we did a whopping 50 out of the given 65, which is spectacularly not very spectacular! I do not recall any of the words unfortunately, but from what the others have said, it was tough for us. I guess we just had a bad day, because the next day . . . The next day, Tuesday, we were given another Squardle! Under 10 minutes, we unveiled 25 words, which we were able to start off our l...
