AEP Reflection 2.2 “Uplifting and lookbacks”

 Welcome back, readers, to another funky AEP reflection!

This is the second one this term

are you ready? OK, so one thing I try to remind myself of is that I’m typing an essay, so it should be in an essay-like format and not in a podcast-like format. But honestly, I really enjoy reading essays that have this kind of casual, conversational tone. Anyway, I’m going off-topic… Oops

This time in AEP class, we went through all the other presentations one more time, taking note of Miss Disa’s feedback from last time. I’ll be honest with you.. I totally forgot that she uploaded a link for us to watch. But I still tried my best for the presentation that was coming up. Well, it was the best I could do at that specific time, but honestly, it wasn’t my actual best, and she definitely noticed. That was a little embarrassing, but oh well, it is what it is.

That week didn’t feel like much, to be honest. It was a pretty simple week with just our normal classes. I think it was just generally really busy, like pretty much every other week.

I know this reflection is a bit short because, frankly, not much happened this week. That’s on me because this reflection is a little later than usual. Before I knew it, Sunday was already here, and it had totally slipped my mind. Regardless, I’m looking forward to the next AEP class. I think I say this in every blog—or at least every other blog.. but it still manages to be the most healing class for me, no matter what we do.

After all these years of studying at this school, I still find it the most comforting class to be in. Honestly, it’s the one thing that keeps me going through the rest of the school day. Or the school year. Or, really, the past six years of school!

On the other hand, I’ve been feeling sentimental these days because the school year is ending. It feels weird putting the number “2” in the title of my blogs.. it’s a constant reminder that we’re already in the second term. It’s like life is knocking at my door, even though I’m already living it.

What can I say? I wouldn’t necessarily say I’m sad that the school year is moving quickly, because there are definitely some things I want to be done with already. But at the same time, I have to catch myself and slow down so I can really appreciate my last year of high school.

P.S. I can’t wait for more updates about your soap project, Miss!

See you all in the next one~!

"Before The Coffee Gets Cold" by Toshikazu Kawaguchi || Book Synopsis

In a hidden café tucked away in all the bustle of Tokyo, disconsolate patrons are given the rare chance to travel back in time. But, there’s a catch: they must return to the present before the coffee in front of them cools, or risk losing themselves eternally in the past.  " Before The Coffee Gets Cold ", a novel by author Toshikazu Kawaguchi, tells of four heartwarming, contemplative tales of a magical cafe's patrons that all interweave in the most little, yet enchanting ways. The first, a forlorn woman who seeks to mend a strained relationship before it becomes irrevocably broken, while the second hopes to acquire an explanation from a departed companion. A third character wishes to revist and undo a moment of regret, and the final traveler longs for one final brush with someone they had lost. The immutable and all-consuming nature of time unveils itself as each of the four's journeys progress, gently guiding them to acceptance.  The book uses charming prose juxtapo...

AEP Reflection 5 “Deep and meaningful”

Welcome back you all to another AEP blog! Today, Ill try my best to express things through words! Probably! Today was crazy.. currently in my car and I think I have to word things well here.. So, lets get started!  Today in AEP class, the atmosphere was calm, with the usual quietness filling the room. It felt like a regular session as we were handed a single sheet of paper for the activity just like the last meeting. This simplicity was becoming a pattern~and I found comfort in it.  As we settled in, the familiar voice from Ms. Disa’s phone once again guided us through the task. This time, we were presented with a checklist that asked us to select words we believed best described who we are. On the back of the sheet, the task became more challenging, as we had to choose the words that we felt defined us “perfectly”. It made me think harder about what truly represents me. When it came time for me to reflect, I chose family, art, and leadership. It was difficult to narrow down t...
