From juggling multiple homework and exams to participating in the musical, parliament, varsity and maintaining a social life, the days seem to blur together in a relentless stream of busyness. It's easy to get caught up in the chaos and lose track of time, which left me constantly feeling like having to keep on picking myself up again to start the next new thing.
Despite the chaotic nature of this school year, it's important to take a moment to pause and give ourselves a small break. I think that is where AEP comes in line. With the moderate pace of learning new vocabulary, which I have found to be very useful considering I've passed by many familiar vocabs as I go on with my studies ehehehe, AEP gives me a sense of pause to my hustling life with its conversation-filled lessons incorporated with productive discussions on the words as well as the inclusion of what I would see it as “old-style” learning. The idea of bringing back the usual norm before covid of ‘pen and paper’ brings me ease and it allows me to interact more with those I'm surrounded with.
We’re already in our last term yet it feels as if I had just picked up my new AS textbooks from the library. It feels as though I have just met the new students who will be joining us this year for AEP. Everything seems to be moving quicker than last year, more responsibilities, more events, more priorities. Many new things I didn't know I'd have to be so worried about. It's all still very new but we are already reaching the end of it. Before I could even get a taste of what this year would be like, I was already standing next to the year where graduation caps await us at the end of the line.
My life seems to be spinning too fast as well...maybe I also like to use class to slow things down a bit.
