Reflection 1 - Hong

First day of actual lessons for AEP in Grade 12, I did barely any of my blogs last year so I have almost no clue on how this works. We talked about time management, nothing too crazy, it was more like a place where most of us realised how crap our time management was. Like half the class basically had this massive issue regarding their time. I don't even know how some of the other students manage to pass while having a schedule so horrid.

It just started by us getting papers handed with an article regarding time management and how to improve yours. I happened to get the longest one out of spite which I skimmed through until I realised that about half of the whole paper was just a bunch of ads. I basically read through everything necessary just to notice the whole passage is about how the writer has this deep hatred for phones or something, so i just started drawing beards onto the picture of the author. There was a bit of yapping here and there but we were pretty much forced to shut up most of the time. Afterwards, everyone gave their insights on the topic one by one talking about how lame their lives are. Some just admitted to mostly sleeping and others talked about how they don't really care at all. I personally talked about my issue of procrastinating which I wanted to solve, that I wasn't able to solve, which is why I am writing my first reflection a day before the next AEP class. In all honestly, I never really considered time as a massive subject nor did I view it with gratitude, I will probably one day realise when I'm all wrinkly and old that this time I spent was really precious or something. Nevertheless, for now, I don't really care.

That's how the first session went. Regarding time management, I have attempted a few times to keep a proper schedule and use it throughout like a little nerd, but most of the time, my peculiar sleep schedule messed my schedule up basically causing everything to return to zero.

Blog 3.3 Almira

 I haven’t written a blog for quite a long time, and I also haven’t attended aep class for 3 weeks because I went to vacation in Boracay and there was the Musicals and the most recent one was the Holy week, to be honest I dont really remember what we did for aep for the past few weeks I was in class and as long as I can remember we did scrabble and did our seatwork. I dont know what to write about since I dont have anything to talk about the class since I was absent for quite a long time, anyways for the past few weeks I was  absent from aep class I did some cool activities and visited two different islands.  Roughly two weeks ago, I went to Boracay for vacation since it was Eid so we decided to go there for a week I had so much fun there and I really enjoyed it because I went snorkelling and did some other water sports activities. Now the second time I was absent for aep was because of the musicals, it was techinacally a holiday but I think I kinda enjoyed it unfortunate...

3.2

Helloooo!!! How is everyone?? Yup, I am late again, like always — and this time, I really am not sure what to write, as I am constantly getting demolished every day with Cambridge. If you were wondering where I was all this time… well, I was just doing past papers!! OKAY — so this blog was due weeks ago, and the reason I missed it (it’s not procrastination this time!!) is that I was absent during the last two weeks of classes that semester. For one of them, we had our stats mock for Cambridge, which I wonderfully failed, and for the next absence… I don't even remember what happened to me. Maybe I was just dead doing all the past papers. Sorry, Miss Disa — I began procrastinating midway!! Well, I’m going to finish this now. This semester, we started doing lessons on environmental words. It was a pretty easy chapter and fun lessons! Too bad I missed most of them. Anyway, on the first day, Miss Disa gave us some random cut-out words that go together. Me, Meral, and Sashmeen were in ...

End and the start of term!

Helloooo everyone! Welcome with another blast! See, your favorite blogger is not late this time!!! And that is because it's just the start of another term, and the workload from school is quite light. Can you believe it's the last term already?? I am still in disbelief—only 2/3 of grade 11 is left, and then our final year of high school... I don't even want to think about it! We have learned a lot of things in AEP last term, including discovering new games and learning a lot more of Miss Disa's fun anecdotes. AEP this year has taught me a lot of technical terms as we have been getting lessons on very niche and specific topics. You know how a word appears a lot when you newly learn it? Now, due to my expansion of vocabulary, I started seeing the words I am learning everywhere, and that brings a bit of peace in me, as I think, well, I am learning something. We had worksheets on Healthcare, Crime and Punishment, Business, and Politics. My favorite among them was the health...
