Blog 2.4 - College and Me (Nurhanis Grade 12)


The long break made me curious as to what we will be learning. Little did I know that we're going to write college entrance essays. Personally, I don't really need to be writing a college essay because the colleges in Malaysia doesn't really require one. But of course there's nothing wrong in learning on how to actually write one.

We firstly had a discussion and sharing opinions of the format or quality of the essay written by a previous student in FIS. Critiquing itself is very hard to me because obviously my standard is different than the administers standard. The essay was very good and I thought I would accept the essay but after discussing some components, it opened my mind to realising that there's still a lot that she could add to the essay.

After the discussion, we continued with the activity of diving into ourselves :)) There was a list of words and we had to choose a word that is the most important to us at this moment. I had to narrow down from 10 to 5 to 3 and then finally to one. This activity really did made me think deeper in the question of "What is really important to me?"

Through this activity, it made me realised again my priorities in life and what drove me this far in life. What did I work so hard for? For what? These are the type of questions that this activity helped me answer.

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...

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)

Nurin’s AEP Adventure #1

  ⋆·˚ ༘ * Time is passing like a speed jet. I’m a senior now and that is incredibly hard to get over in my head. There’s something undeniably strange about growing up, and I’m going through every minute of it. AEP is the same, classes are comforting and chill. I’m soaking all the general knowledge I can get in AEP class and I’m going to put in extra efforts this year as it’s my last. Expectations this year will not be up the roof but at least to the point where I can reach. I hope AEP will continue to flourish my skills in multiple things and I sure will put those to use in college!!  ⋆·˚ ༘ *
