Fool's Paradise — Leo Blog 2.2

 The last four AEP lessons had been drastically different each day, which I found quite hilarious.

Firstly, the class after the last blog, I had been late to class. Not just late, I missed one entire period just because of the so-called prodigious Angkas app! While my parents would tell me not to wake up late and get ready for school 20 minutes prior lest I can't book a motorbike, the amazing app proceeded to tell me that they 'couldn't find a booking! Our bikes are in demand!' Safe to say that, from then on, I vowed to use their competitor app (MoveIt) to make bookings for school.

Fortunately for me, that same day, we had only done a review session on the words we learned in the last three units. I had to say, it was a lot for a person who had been stressed out by a simple application that couldn't get me a ride to school. I was frantically calling my mother to tell the admin not to give me a demerit for being late, but alas, I missed the fun part of the period.

The week after that was the exam week, which I didn't take too seriously this year for some strange reason. I was really laid-back in studying, probably because I enjoyed the topics learned that midterm, and studied really well (even though I got a terrible score for ... Biology. Unbelievable). During that period, I remembered I studied for maths, as always.

After the break, we came back with a meltdown from Ms. Disa about a plane ticket and some 5,000 PHP. Something about the flight ticket not being given and somehow money wasn't being given back? Funnily enough, or topic today was about crime—extortion is one. Isn't that great? We're learning about things we'll need nowadays, now that we have flight tickets somehow magically disappearing and money being taken away from us for about a year or so, in an attempt to make us forget that 'Oh, we were supposed to be on a trip to Boracay!'

Really, though, I'm quite excited for this half-term as we will be delving into some crime. Though, it wasn't me who chose the topic—I personally wanted the environment topic. Still, it's a good thing we're learning about crime because now I know about crime I never knew about!

Happy birthday to me too!

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 lik...

Busra D (AEP 3.1)

ITS ALREADY 3ND TRIMESTER THAT IS CRAZY. Time goes by so fast like flash I’m excited and nervous at the same time for this 3rd trimester!!  This time I will do my blog different , I’ll just explain what we did most of the time in AEP. Before we get to the main part of our topic of game we always play word puzzles to get our mind moving, it helps us not sleep in AEP heh. Sometimes we also play scrabble which is really fun. I lost my streak sadly :( Jia is really good I’m usually 2nd place. One of my core memorize is dogo news miss makes it so fun to read and has interesting topics ( just like the banana taped on the wall) it will never get out of my mind. We also do listening tasks which is alright I guess. Well anyways this 2nd trimester went by so fast hope to see you next time byeee!!!.

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...
