Anis' AEP Diaries 2.5 - Sentimental and Growing Up

 Season 2 : Episode 5 🎀 

Thursday, February 15th 2024 

In the midst of a crazy maze towards the end of term two, numerous signs have emphasized on the importance of taking a break. 

Nothing more, nothing less, we jogged our brains by playing squardle in which surprisingly we had found multiple bonus words, yeay! I am pretty sure that we have gone through enough word games to be granted the title of “master of English” – I am not joking. 

Our recent class in AEP this Wednesday could be categorized as wrap up and zip your luggage class as we are finally accumulating and appling all the acquired skills in previous lessons. Other than the fact that the essay we had written completely obliterated our precious 15 minutes as everyone in the class had an existential crisis, I particularly enjoyed it. All thanks to Ms. Disa though, she shone through the dark and sprinkled some wisdom which comforted our anxious selves. She had mentioned that it is truly a normal event and you do NOT need to call 911 for it. 

Ms. Disa had given us the task to write a letter expressing our passions on why we should be taken as the role we offered. I figured out that in this era of uncertainty, us students shall be fully prepared to encounter future events. If you ask how, it could be answered through being flexible. Though originally, I had wanted to be a psychologist, I figured that it was maybe time that I keep my options open. As a result of this, I had written to “fashion designer” which would truly be a backup if things don’t work out in the future. 

Writing about it has cleared the fog surrounding my passion about it. It may seem trivial, but with my utmost dedication to preserve my culture’s traditional textile, I finally translated it properly. See, these kinds of topics are often talked and pondered about, but never internalized through. Most of the time, career talks are hypothetical but the task helped me in delving deeper into the roots of my interest. 

A random input, I will actually miss the classical music in AEP lessons. Although sometimes when the super extra violin ones come through and it makes me feel like I’m in a battle zone, it has become a core memory. Thank you Ms. Disa for everything (tears in my eyes a little bit). In a nutshell, these past few lessons have really made me appreciate more of what I have in the present.

  1. How can you not feel the passion in Vivaldi's violin? ... I grew up in a house full of opera..imagine..OMG how I hated it, but my love of Rennaisance music is mainly due to my mother's influence. But opera at 6am is my limit, I do not do that. Vivaldi on the other hand🤣

And So It Begins...- Chloe Lloveras- Blog 3 T3- AEP 10

  Maps have become my new enemy. I know this may sound dramatic, but I really just can't seem to like them. As an artist who loves anything related to colors and drawings, you'd think a map of all things would be right up my alley, but you'd definitely be wrong. The feeling of facing your adversary is like no other- this desperate thirst to defeat them, dying to be quenched. And so it begins... The day before the exam, we played "Squardle," but the joy it gave us upon completion was short-lived as it was replaced by the impending atmosphere of doom looming above us. I felt a pit in my stomach when I walked into the classroom the next morning. But I was prepared...or so I had thought. I only managed to score 87%, which in reality was actually a 77% because Miss Disa added 10 points to help bump up our grades. I barely passed really, but that doesn't matter now. When I had finished taking the exam, all I could think of was that it was finally over. I could relax...

AEP- Blog 3.3

 Hello hello hello there! We meet again, for one. last. blog.  Woah, it has been a ride hasn't it. A year sure does go by fast. It seriously felt not that long ago that I had written my first blog of the year. Definitely did not feel like 9 whole months. Reading said blog made realize now that I had nothing to worry about after all. That I have been proven wrong about not having fun in AEP. Sure, the work has gotten a lot tougher and was doubled to what we had last year. But hey, we're in G8 now and that's to be expected, AEP or not. And we still managed to play word games, some old, some new, and challenged ourselves in the best way possible. The seatworks we had DEFINITELY challenged me this year. But I wouldn't say all of them were so bad, only some. I really enjoyed the vocab quizzes. It really did help expand my vocabulary, and now whenever I read a book and encounter a word from one of the quizzes, I get all excited cause I know what it means now. I feel a bit sad...
