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!!!

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...
