AEP- Blog #3.2

 Heya folks! I'm back with another blog. Let's skip the introduction and just get to it, shall we:

March 18, 2024 -

We started off the first period of the first AEP lesson of the week with 'hello wordl', and as usual chose to guess a 7 letter word. We managed to guess the word at the 4th try of the game and the word was 'worsted'. Not gonna lie, looking at the word makes me question whether or not if it actually is a word from the dictionary, it just looks so wrong to me. But it actually is, and it is a type of yarn. Huh, well, ya learn something new everyday. How interesting! 

Next up, we did vocab quiz 11 using spin the wheel and answered 2/2 word correctly! One of the words were 'milieu' but I forgot what my second word was. Overall, this was an alright quiz. 

For our last activity, we did a seatwork where we had to read an extract and give a title and summaries what it was about. I found this activity was quite useful and enjoyed doing it, a bit. Not saying that it was no challenge, no, it was quite difficult. We did 4 extracts and thought the last one to be hardest out of all of them. I was halfway correct with my initial title with the 3rd extract, but with Ms Disa's explanation I understood what I was missing. But for the 4th extract I was quite off in understanding the whole point of the extract. Though, again, with Ms' explanation, I finally got it. Again, like I said,  I enjoyed this activity because it will be useful if ever I have to do it again in the near or distant future; maybe we'll be asked to do this kind of thing in our English class, who knows.

March 19, 2024-

Our warmup for today was hurdle! Which is a game we don't often play. Unfortunately, I was feeling quite dizzy and sick the beginning of the lesson, so I was feeling quite sluggish. And when Ms Disa gave me the pen I tried to push through but decided to give it to someone else instead. We tried our new strategy of using the 4 words that would eliminate most of the letters, and it did help somehow. What shocked me was the Kuk and Hyeono were being very helpful and managed to get us through the game. In the end, Hyeono told us to put down the word 'chant' and it ended up being correct! I was shocked and quite impressed.

Since there were a few of us missing because of their Cambridge mock exam, and it was only one period for today anyway, Ms made us play scrabble. But I was still quite dizzy and tired so I wasn't that excited, also because I'm not that big a fan of scrabble anyway. Then Ms told me she would be partnered up with me, THAT got me just a bit motivated. I know it technically isn't fair that I got the teacher, but, throughout the game I did try to do most of it myself, with Ms helping me out of course. In the end, it was a close between me and Ms and Hyeonseo and Rayan, but we won since I had the very clever idea of  using the 'Q' we had and made the word 'Qi' to add 11 points to our score. MWAHAHAHA, vERy ClEveR indeed hehehehehe

Now I may have done this blog in advance and therefore have actually no clue what days this blog is SUPPOSED to be covering. So for all I know I should've bee covering April 1 and 2 for this blog. But, Ms said its fine so I hope you enjoy my updates for these dates instead.

Anywhooo, that's all from me for this week, like always see ya in the next one!

BYEEEEE!!!!

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...
