Nada Ahmed-Blog#3.2

To get back to the subject of social media (for the umpteenth time), it is a world of curated perfection where everyone seems to fit neatly into trending aesthetics, polished opinions, and filtered smiles. However, if you're bending yourself to fit the mold to undermine the real you, trying to keep up with other highlights will only dim your light. It's exhausting, isn't it? To perform, please post as if your worth is hanging on likes and comments. The world does not need another copy; it needs raw, messy, beautiful authenticity that only we can bring. Sincerely, you don't need to smile when you don't feel like it. Agree with popular texts that don't sit right or show up just for approval. It's ok to step back to protect your peace and let the people see you without the masks. Not everyone will applaud those who truly see you; however, those who do will appreciate your authenticity. Dare to be imperfect. It's how real connections are made—not by the perfection you display but by the humanity you share.


Moving forward, I've used this technique lately for processing or engaging with my new key concepts. Initially, I thought that mind mapping was the same as blurting for recall or learning content. Mind mapping for learning whilst engaging with the content; for example, you might mindmap whilst reading or watching a video. I used it since I found just reading a textbook or watching a video is passive and you won't remember much, wasting numerous hours for not much gain. so I found out that this method was really effective in drafting ideas; however, it should be specifically focusing on the topic and be cautious of just jotting down notes in a ransom manner. The main goal is making logical connections. After all, talk yourself through all of the distinct points. Then you're going to highlight them. This will help us in drafting the graduation speech. Ultimately, AEP made me realize that no matter how prepared you are, there is going to be something unexpected.

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...
