Blog #3

First blog of the year! This blog includes the padlet of many, many AEP meetings. 

Last padlet of the year (December 10, 2024). On that day, we didn't do much, just played games. We first played Scrabble (which Selim won) and then played Waffle. Had fun that day.

First padlet of the year (January 7, 2025). The break went by so quickly, it didn't feel like 2 weeks at all. I wish it was longer. Anyways, at the start of the class, Miss Disa asked us about the lessons she taught us and if we learned/remembered anything from it. After that, we played Scrabble once more. Somehow Selim beat us again. Selim is insanely lucky in Scrabble for some reason. He had nearly double everyone's score. He had around 120 something points if I remember correctly. We then played Contexto after we finished playing Scrabble. I enjoyed AEP and had a lot of fun. Missed lying on my bed though.

Second padlet (January 14, 2025). The class began with us playing Unlimited Wordle. It looked and seemed like normal Wordle though. Wasn't able to notice the difference. After playing, we did a seatwork. It was really hard and confusing. I was just guessing for the whole thing. We then read a DOGOnews article about an 18 year old Indian chess player becoming a grandmaster. Almost forgot to mention that we learned a new word today. That word was "layman". Means normal people, if I remember correctly. We did a lot. Was pretty sleepy that day.

And finally, my most recent padlet, January 28, 2025, or basically today. I can't believe it's almost February. Time flies super fast. Nonetheless, this is what we did today.  The warm up today was a really hard variant of Wordle. We just put random words since we didn't know how to figure it out. Miss Disa went out to print something so we just talked about the musical after "finishing" the really hard Wordle. When Miss came back, we continued the seatwork from last week. The part that Miss Disa told us to do was easier than the one last week. It wasn't as confusing. After doing the seatwork, we read 2 DOGOnews articles. One was about bike prototypes camouflaging while the other was about gadgets. The gadgets were quite cool. There was a CCTV paintball machine thing for intruders. That seemed pretty useful and fun to use. We did a lot today.

"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...
