Blog 3.1 - Ayse

Hi everyone! So, I know this blog post is fashionably late, but better late than never, right? Let's rewind to our recent class after finals week-it was a blast! During our first meeting, I was about 15 minutes late to class, I believe this was because of a Musical meeting. Sadly a reason as to why I missed out on the part where Miss Disa taught the class how to tie a knot T-T. Luckily I didn't have to make one myself, I received a knot from Miss Disa instead! woot! woot!

We then proceeded to make origami frogs, by observing Miss Disa folding the paper step by step! It felt nostalgic, bringing me back to the 8th-grade experience. Not only did we create frog origami, but we even had an intense race. My frog went head-to-head with Mister Albert and his tiny yet mighty frog, courtesy of Izzah. Let's just say, size definitely didn't matter in this showdown! As I was panicking for my frog's life, Albert was laughing alongside Izzah. Very unfortunate I know. We will have different outcomes the next time around.

With the clock ticking down, Miss Disa handed out different speeches to each of us to portray in class and reenact, so we went our own ways, practiced, and returned after the 5-minute break. I had to give a speech that was from a movie scene. Basically, an American football coach who gave a motivational speech right before a match. It was such a fun time honestly! Everyone did such a good job. 

But the real MVP? Nurin, hands down. Her Scottish accent during the performance was straight-up fire, If you know, you know! 

All in all, despite my late entrance, this class was a highlight for sure. Here's to embracing the unexpected and squeezing every drop of fun out of learning.

IM THE MAP! - Janek - Blog 2 - T3 - AEP 10

Although maps have always held a peculiar charm for me, a fascination sparked during childhood by watching episodes of Dora the Explorer and her indispensable map, my relationship with them has evolved. Previously, a map was a guide to travelling to places, a tool for discovering new café locations on trips, or simply a way to marvel at rather weird corners of the globe. However, my recent academic assignments have altered my perception of maps, making them less of an object of intrigue and more a source of stress. Essays have made maps worse! Before, engaging with a map never entailed writing an essay. If my father discussed a historical map, I’d happily delve into a verbal explanation rather than penning an analysis. But now, as a student in an Advanced English Program, essays have become a standard expectation. Tackling these assignments has been a significant challenge, turning my once enjoyable encounters with maps into a draining task. It’s clear now that the essays, not my exhau...

Miss Disa is back! - AEP 10- BLOG#4- JANEK

Now that the exams have finally concluded and the stress has lifted, thanks to the break and the high AEP spirit, it seems inevitable that a blog post is in order! The past weeks have been some of the most unusual and unpredictable I've ever experienced in AEP. With a few new faces, Miss Disa's absence, and sudden activities, let's delve into the latest updates on AEP. A Sudden Disappearance? On January 7, just a day before AEP's classes resumed, I felt a sense of fear. Fear that I might have forgotten something, a feeling I often experience. Despite this, I had to enter the class with confidence. However, my expectations took an unexpected turn. Miss Disa was nowhere to be seen. She had apparently left for the UK, and has not yet arrived in the Philippines. This had left many of us  confused, yet simultaneously relieved. No work, no stress! All we had to do was sit in the Filipino class doing nothing. Initially, that's what we thought, until a notification popped u...

Nurin’s AEP Adventure (Term 3 #1)

Hey blog!!! Under some ciscumstances, I have relapsed into my old habits of procrascination and I’m really not proud of that :,) But that’s okay, I’m still in progress and of course I’m gonna have ups and downs. Embracing any chance to change myself for the better, always. Anyways, IT’S TERM 3 ALREADY?!?!? My my, time flies like a speed jet to space. I’m like a leap away from graduating and that thought scares me, in an exciting way. I cannot even imagine yet what the future holds for me and I’m eager to find out. For now, nothing much is going on except for preparations of the musical production on March 9th. So I’ve just been really busy with dance trainings and rehearsals here and there. Expectations are really high for the Grade 12 so we have to give it our best and perform to our fullest potential.  I have been putting off works in the last moments of previous term. I got my Cambridge exam result and it brought me back down to my dark pit, I never want to get out of there like...
