Anis' AEP Diaries 3.1 - Missed The Train

Season 3 : Episode 1 🎀 

Thursday, February 15th 2024 

Tick, tock, tick, tock... 

At this time around, we have reached the last and final season of Anis' AEP Diaries as she makes her way to *drumrolls* graduation! What a long, long way it has been. I would like to give a pat on the back to all students who have made it through the last term because it goes without saying we were all in a pit! On our plates, we had stem congress, musical (the president of making everyone's schedule busy), exams, volleyball games and so much more in between. 

In our last classes, AEP acted as a "brake" for us lot who is full speeding all term long. As a result of that, classes have been more lenient as we step away from the academic syllabus and engulfed ourselves in the world of origami and speeches! It was filled with laughters, and officially became super memorable to see everyone loosen up once in a while. 

Who would've thought that I would be re-enacting Susan B. Anthony's speech on women's right to vote on a regular Wednesday? I fully understand now how reading a speech and delivering a speech can be two different things. Hats off to all of the impersonators because Ayse and I genuinely had to cover our faces with paper so we could make it through the class (I never saw such passion). 

A little fun fact: Haron, one of our classmates, peeked through a small gap of the door in the empty room I used to rehearse and practice my speech. Well, see. First of all, my back was turned against the door. Second of all, I had my headphones on maximum volume. So, tell me how I had to explain myself. Until this day, I had yet to wonder if he still looks at me the same or I am a complete madwoman. 

Y'all never know what fun is like until you're having a frog race competition with Tokyo Drift song in the background. 

We also did some hands-on activity on making origami which was FROGS!!!! I usually give up after the first two folds, so this was kind of a big thing for me ok. I made two frogs in which one was pretty disabled by the looks of its feet. I never knew where I went wrong. However, the smaller one did make such effort to help me win the race round. We used our marked exam papers as the origami paper...with Ms. Disa's approval. 

Not to forget, the lesson that made me had my butt on the edge of my seat was the making of these knots. Apparently it could be made as a weapon. Not that it will happen, but good to know we're prepped for whatever is coming next. Should've had this knot even earlier during the highs of the musical so I can smack the table, or my head, in times of stress. Joke. 

Anyway, I am done yapping. Thank you.

Peanuts!! - Blog 2.1 - Aire M.

Welcome, ladies and gentlemen, to the world of Blogger! I am your writer, Aire Marcellana, presenting to you a blog of quality writing, containing a girl's simple hopes and dreams. Hopes and dreams crushed knowing like 5 people reads these. I do still find fun in writing these, however, especially since I love to write. Our first few lessons in the 2nd term proved to be quite fun and entertaining to write about. I got a bit stressed on our first lesson, but all in all, a fantastic start to the new term. Reflecting on last term, although I did put effort into AEP, I didn't prioritize it as much as I should've, even if it is a minor subject. I am grateful I got a good grade, yet I have high hopes for the terms to come. 11/06/23 We started off our term 2 with some good old Squaredle . Grades 7, 9, and 10 have already paved the way to finishing the Squaredle by having already completed the easy words. With 63 out of 79 words settled, our class went on a journey to get all of th...

The "Queen of Vocab" - Blog 1.5 - Aire M.

Hello... to pretty much no one. Probably no one except Miss Disa reads these blogs, no matter how much effort I put into them. I really like writing these blogs, as they are my way of venting all my feelings and thoughts out into the void. With that being said, here's the blog :) Yeah, sorry for the short intro today. I'm feeling sleepy 😪   10/02/23 Today in AEP, we used the whole 5th period trying to complete Squaredle , and in the last 10 minutes, Miss told us we'd get 7 merits each if we finished. It didn't seem like a long way off, as we just had 14 words left. We didn't get the 7 merits, but we only had... 7 words left? Still pretty good. In the second period, Miss Disa explained how exams can trick you. Well, to be more specific, questions that, if you didn't read the instructions, you could get wrong. And those questions were very easy. All you had to do was read the instructions. But somehow, even the smartest people can get tricked. (Honestly, Summer,...

Congee — Leo's Second Term Second Blog

Writing this before and after hectic weeks is truly something to be excited about. It feels nice to have 2 days of unforgettable laxness before school savages into your brain and makes it as mushy as congee (or as foreigners call it, porridge). Honestly, seeing the to-do list for next week, my brain already is mushier than congee—you can even call it water. However, this is not the time to talk about the morbid demises in the future, especially before Christmas! Let's talk history! The first Monday after writing the last blog, we were given another . . . Squardle! With 65 words and 40 minutes on the clock, we did a whopping 50 out of the given 65, which is spectacularly not very spectacular! I do not recall any of the words unfortunately, but from what the others have said, it was tough for us. I guess we just had a bad day, because the next day . . . The next day, Tuesday, we were given another Squardle! Under 10 minutes, we unveiled 25 words, which we were able to start off our l...
