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

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...
