It's been a while since I've typed something on blogger, but I'll fill you in on what's been going on with me for the past 5 weeks, from the beginning of the school day until this week.
11th grade…. I still can’t believe it myself it still looks as if I’m in 9th grade and transferred in 11th all of a sudden which even made me think that I left my brain during the junior year, but here I am attending STEM and struggling much as before. Actually, I was unable to attend the first day of orientation because I was still dazed and did not believe it was time to return to school. The first week was more of an introduction to everything that will happen in the coming weeks. Each class was slightly surprising so expect a lot of unexpected things; nevertheless, the good part was that we didn't need to introduce ourselves because we already knew everyone except for a few teachers and those new students. After the week ended I felt exhausted from staring at the screen so much that I wanted to shut my eyes and sleep.
(Medo and I were both looking forward to AEP class, but Monday was orientation day, and we only meet once a week, which is highly disappointing.)
During the second and third weeks, I was already drained from the amount of work that had been given to us. And a lot of information that we need to process. At first, I thought I was fine and that I could handle a lot of things, but after another week passed, I began to question whether or not I had made the correct decision to go to the STEM department. Maybe, Yes? Maybe No?. (I still am questioning myself ) The thought of the Midterm exam approaching is causing me a lot of stress and anxiety, but I know I have to keep trying and push through it all. After all, we're only getting started, so who knows what will happen next time.
(We finally had AEP class, and it was extremely refreshing to attend to class, especially with Ms Disa's outfit, which was very formal yet classy, and her stylish pink hair, which was all flawless, as well as her terrific energy, which she always gives us 100%. With ms, There’s never a dull moment, which makes me wonder. Why do we only get together on Mondays?)
In the fourth and fifth weeks, I've noticed how easily tired I am after class, where I fall asleep almost immediately and then resume my schoolwork when I wake up. In terms of this week, we're halfway through quizzes in every subject and there are a few more things left to cover before the midterm exam, and more assessments are to be submitted and I need to get on with my notes or else.
(AEP class has gotten even better, especially with the interactive websites that we've been using. It's been a lot of fun and a bit of confusion at first because we weren't used to these sites, and we also need decent internet for these or you won't be able to see anything in Miro and its quite great that we’re learning some business and political terms at the same time.)
(PS I was also considering making a vlog instead of doing this, but due to unforeseen circumstances, I have decided to do it for the time being... I won't be able to do so this time, but hopefully next time. :)
Thank you for your interesting and informative blog, yes Dannielle, i still feel as if Im in grade 9 sometimes! Unfortunately for all the things we're doing now in AEP a good internet connection and computer really make life easier. I was offline for a week and I couldn't even attend my own lessons.lol.
