Blog 3.2 - It's time for goodbyes (Nurhanis Grade 12)

This is it. It's the final blog. It's always difficult to find time and sit down and write this blog but when I actually start, words just keep coming out of my mouth. So much has happened from the start of the school year to this day. Not only have I grown older but I feel like I have grown better as a person. I've learned that life comes with responsibilities and high school helps me prepare for that - and clearly I'm not ready for that. However, time just goes on and so does life. People change as much as I did and I feel like blogging is a way to look back on those moments.

I still remember when I first joined AEP classes. My first impressions were horrible. I was greeted with the first task which is to write essays based on graphs. And here I thought only math uses graphs - apparently not. Online and virtual classes are VERY DIFFERENT. Although I've met Ms Disa and Ayse online, actually seeing them face-to-face adds a new picture to knowing their personalities. I definitely enjoy face-to-face class better. 

AEP this year was a rollercoaster for real. We started off great and then we hit a slump and then we ended off quite well? IDK what happened but that's just life. I learned a lot this year. I learned how to write CV, speeches, and just some other random discussions. We were very productive in the first term but quickly went downhill during the second term. The main problem with me personally is my time management. I've always created a time schedule to follow but it never works. Main culprit is me being tired and burnt out from school. I stay up late to finish school work and then I don't sleep and then I feel tired so I end up not doing anything. SO guys moral is to HAVE ENOUGH SLEEP. How much is enough? supposedly 8 hours but for me having more than 5 hours of sleep is a luxury.

I feel like I just deviated from the topic no? I don't even know what I was talking about. Anyways, for me, AEP is not really a subject where I put my focus in. It's more like a break from all the stressful subjects I have during the day which is why I'm thankful that Miss sometimes let us play word games or make origami and handcrafts. WHY IS THERE NO ART IN GRADE 12?? Petition to have art class in grade 12. Nevertheless, AEP is one of the classes where I can get out of my comfort zone. It's somewhat like a "safe place". Everyone plays their role which just makes the class enjoyable :>

So in short, I'm going to miss this class even if it's just by a bit. I'm going to miss the frog leaping competition, the wordle warm-ups, Miro board if anyone still remembers, blogger, vocabulary test, scrabble and many more. I could spend hours just listing down what we did but I won't because I don't want to torture myself hehe. Thank you Miss Disa for everything that you've taught me. Not just academically but also as a person. That's it from me. Hanis signing out :D

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...
