Reflection 6 -- SEM 2 -- Adi Syachrin

 For this week, it was a bit of a doozy!

We finally started on our resume meant for our characters. I have made my own resume around several months ago when I was under the impression that I would be able to get a part-time job while also studying. Well... I never really ended up applying to the place but the resume is still relatively updated so I can still use it when I feel like it.

I'm using said resume as the basis and reference for Marshall's resume. It has also come to my attention that we're supposed to apply to a real company for this project. Now this was another difficult one. I had searched up several architecture firms in Sydney, Australia and instinctively picked the first one that interested me. However, it has come to my attention that our character has to be pursuing something we like and are actively aspiring for as well. 

I initially picked architecture since it had been one of my possible career paths back in Grade 10. However, after learning how difficult and not to mention, expensive, the major is, I decided to opt out of it to more material-based sciences. Which means, I don't particularly want to be an architect.

Miss insisted that I choose a job and a career path that I'm actively more interested in. I didn't really want to make Marshall a medicine or pharmacy student for that matter, so I picked one of the jobs and majors that I have a lot of love for but is unlikely to pursue: Creative writing. Specifically, Marshall intends to become a screenwriter.

As someone who has always loved movies and writing, becoming a screenwriter had always been am obvious choice for one of my paths. However, there comes the concern of money and job availability. It's a major that I would pick more out of passion rather than practicality. However, I gave Marshall the privilege in order to still pursue what I never could.

Marshall's family is well-off and his sister is a doctor, making it so that she's already the designated "golden child", if you will, allowing Marshall to not bear the responsibilities of a bread winner and instead focus on his interests. He's applying to Sunstar Entertainment, a film production company that have produced a variety of Australian movies that I am rather fond of.

In a perfect world, I would be able to have what he has. But for now, I'm just glad that I can watch my dream come true through him. This really makes him feel like a son to me lol

Anyways, that's all for now. Thank you for reading!

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...
