 February 18, 2025 - Failed Duotrigordle?

Ever since the year started, we have been trying out new warmups other than the ones we usually do such as wordle, hurdle, waffle and others. In this short lesson, we were given the choice to play Duotrigordle, which has become one of our new favorites. It’s basically solving 37 wordles at once,  but you have to guess it in a certain amount of guesses.  


It took us a long time to finish it, around over 20 minutes. This game required a lot of thinking since there’s multiple words to guess at once. Most of the time, it was Sid guessing and talking. 


We didn’t exactly fail Duotrigordle, we didn’t guess all the words in the required amount of guesses, but we were still able to proceed guessing, but there’s no winning or awards. I was able to guess a few words, quite surprising since I usually don’t do much in the warmup.


February 26, 2025 -  Almost Failing Wordle?

Since we didn’t have much time to waste since its shortened periods, we started off with a warm up right away. This time it was Wordle, a classic. For this warm up, Ms Disa was the one holding the pen, something different than we usually do. 


For the first two guesses, none of it has correct or misplaced letters, just fully wrong. On the third try, we only got two letters “A” and “R”. After a lot of thinking, Kuk was able to guess the word “Award” on the second last try. I found this game experience quite strange since we usually guess the word in the first three tries. 


After that, we received our exam papers, which weren’t the best. We checked the exam papers and saw our mistakes, quite humbling after thinking I did well. We also received a paper Ms made with ChatGPT, containing all the answers for the exam. Afterwards, Ms explained the answer sheet and how we should use AI to help us but not fully answer our work.


Lastly, we did a worksheet which contained maps. We had to compare the two maps, and then write the following letter to the correct answer. The letters contained sentences that connected the sentences about the maps.  It was quite confusing as Ms didn’t double check when she printed it, but we had our own ways of answering the questions. We were all asked to give one sentence comparing the two maps.

"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...
