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 3.3 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...
