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.

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...
