the age of enlightenment

This month flew by so quickly. Nonetheless, the start of April seems like it was such a long time ago. I’m not sure what word would best describe this month. One word that comes to mind is “experience.” I experienced a lot of new things this month, such as an “Australia Roce” and Youth Parliament….

It’s been a hot minute since I wrote my last blog post, and I know I said I would try to write more often, but I did not. Sorry guys. But this week, I forced myself to get out my laptop, asked Kevin for some advice on what to write and am trying my best…

Welcome back to my monthly review! I honestly can’t remember everything that happened this past month. My brain is fried from the last 2 weeks of exams, which marks the half-way bench to THE HSC. What the actual heck. I’ve also been putting off writing this blog post for a while, mainly due to my…

I wrote a little poem for my english extension 1 class this week! I performed it as a spoken word poem, which I had never done before, but it also doubled as a found poem. This is when an author may take direct lines from a book or novel (in this case, I used an…

This month was quite busy, from going back to school and partaking in many activities. Glossing over my photo album and from what I can remember from February, I feel like it hasn’t been that long since the start of the year, let alone the start of February.

In November of 2022, I applied to a program called Max Potential. I had no idea what it was, nor what I would be getting myself into.

Now, I’m sure you’re asking: Who is Pavlov? And what’s up with his dogs? I stumbled across this the other day, and found it really interesting and wanted to share about it. Pavlov’s dogs (no, not his feet) was an experiment conducted by Ivan Pavlov, a Russian psychologist who introduced a theory that revolutionised our…

It’s come to that moment where I can finally say that this is the end of things. As I embarked on my last first week of high-school, the reality of its meaning never actually hit me. Let me break it down for you. On Thursday, I officially started high school as a Year 12 student,…

As we slowly come to the end of the first month of 2024, it’s important to reflect back upon the highs and lows of the month. I swear in every blog post I write “It’s crazy that…”, but it really is true. It’s crazy that it’s almost already February, and also the start of the…
