The Final Stretch- Meral- AEP 11- Blog 3.1


Hello readers! It's been a bit strange these days- like, on one hand, I thought school should've ended by now, but on the other hand, it almost feels like second term just started. But according to my calendar, third term already begun, so I guess we're onto the final stretch of the school year. The Paradox of Time. Crazy, right?

Junior year has been this never-ending blur of the same routine as I continue to count down the days to graduation. Kidding... well, sometimes. But here we are, so let's get straight to our agenda for today!

Picking up where we left off (of what I deemed a cliffhanger), Miss Disa handed us worksheets on the unit of Crime and Punishment. By the end of the period, we had covered everything from the lexicon of crime to the perpetrators and their collocates. 

I've mentioned this before, but there's something deeply satisfying about coming across these vocabulary words in real life. It's like a moment where I think, Ah, this is why I'm learning it. 

I was absent on one of the AEP classes- the time when we my classmates had their exams scheduled. Luckily, I was able to take it the following week, along with Shasmeen, after my chemistry exam. As I was writing down my answers, I was just so excited to go home and be free from the trenches of exam week. So, you could guess I submitted it early, but it went well, nevertheless. 

That's all for this blog. As always, thank you for reading this and I'm hoping to see you in the next one!

Signing off,
Meral

"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...
