Struck Down Like Lightning — Leo's Fifth Second-Term Blog!

 Monday morning is when all the fun begins! We started with a wonderful game of Squard— I mean, Waffle! It is, of course, all of our favorite game to play on a wonderful morning! Nothing like a good word-making through combining different letters in a line! Hope that rings a bell.

Nonetheless, we did do the exercise a wee bit too fast, maybe a little too-too fast? Sans the screaming at Naboni, we sure did do a pretty superb performance on a regular website! It was a very simple game.

Welcoming a new student to the class (once again), Victoria joins the party! And then she was bombarded by another essay ... nothing like a good first-hour essay. It was another essay about concrete production which we have seen a good three or four times, so not only was I well-acquainted with it, but I was spectacularly writing as fast as a lightning bolt striking an umbrella, which supposedly happens—never seen it happen in real life (and hoping it does not happen to me).

It was a challenge because we could not refer back to our previous writing, and therefore I lost that poetic touch that Ms. Disa loved my essays for :'( (Rest in peace, "subtly wavered"). In retrospect, much of it was based on experimenting what felt more ... "professional" in a way. I guess having that little hint of magnifiqué-ness really does spice up a meant-to-be mundane essay, does it not?

The Tuesday after, we finally started with a game of Squardle! Woohoo! With a game of 26 words, we breezed through it, with the longest word being "superbly" (which is not as long as the past games we had played). However, we had the vocabulary quiz right after— No, we didn't!

We had a game of Scrabble ... Woohoo! Being infamously known for never winning a game of Scrabble, I ... of course did not win again. Third place, sadly, as always. I swear every game of Scrabble is rigged against me in a way, I just have to figure out who is changing up the rules!

Short week, but fun regardless. It was the Science Congress anyway, so there would be a lot of stress after all the aforementioned. Let's just hope it doesn't get anywhere near worse this week...

yet another blog for this week

 yet again we do the thing where we type what we remember about the stuff that happened this week. So, there's not much tbh, there isn't much going on other than I picked up EP again since I think I'm suffering withdrawal with notoriety getting taken down and I'm cooking some video I made with someone showcasing some stupid shenanigans. So yeah is fine cruising so far (but so far)

Short. Sweet. Simple! - Chloe Lloveras- Blog 1 T1- AEP10

      Back at it again! The new school year has begun and AEP along with it. But this year, it comes with a twist: a much more jam-packed schedule and more essay-writing. Did I mention that the vocabulary quizzes are back and that blogs will be more frequent now? No? Well, you're in for a treat!      We hadn't even met for the first session yet, but we were already juggling assessments like a syllabus quizlet, a "what's your English level?" test, and even a knowledge quiz about IELTS writing task one, something I haven't encountered before. When our first meeting did commence, it wasn't until a week later due to the heavy rainfall and strong winds so classes were canceled. As you might've guess, we were already behind and AEP hadn't even begun yet!  Before starting, Miss Disa established the basics for the new school year: 1. Every meeting will begin with a word game with a five-minute time limit. If we don't finish in time, we'll still mov...

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...
