QUAIL EGGS!!!
yesterday was the gathering our IDMI (Interdisciplinary Multiple Intelligence week)group had. Intelligence huh? I don't have any.QUAIL EGGS!!!
Initially, we (Teri, Sing Rue, En Zhi, Tabitha and I) chose to meet at the National Library but changed our minds because the National Library is super duper quiet. SO in the end, we flocked to McDonalds.
Everything sucked.
FULLSTOP.
I don't wanna continue explaining the damn crap.
FULLSTOP.
heys, I think I love this.
FULLSTOP!!
hahas. That was how my MSN name worked. "i'm bored. FULLSTOP."
I think that by typing the word FULLSTOP emphasize your point. Get it?? >.< I DON'T WANNA end my life okay. This isn't a suicidal note or a hint to people who are concerned about me. I still want to live with life and achieve many many things!! Life's short! I don't want to make it shorter!
I can't believe I procrastinated for 5 days and have not finished my french homework. I'm going to chiong it today and the IDMI thing tomorrow. My scanner can't work. URGH.
And I still have a science report to do. I CAN"T BELIEVE THIS.
Currently, life is boring except the few science lessons I had. >.<>Experiment: Making a quail egg jump
Method:
- put a quail egg in a beaker
- cover the quail egg with acid (HCL) completely.
After a while, carbon dioxide will generate on the top of the quail egg and the skin of the quail egg will slowly peel off and what's left is a jumping quail egg! - Stir the acid with the egg with a glass rod
- Immerse the egg into water and wait for a few days before you get a really JUMPY quail egg!!
I took my egg too early before the whole shell has pealed off. Kind Huiwen let me use her beaker of acid.So there's two cute eggs!!
Huiwen: =DD

She looks sheepish I must say. And her chopstick skills aren't bad.

See the foam?? It has sort-of died down. You should have seen the puffy one, it was super scary and looked as if it was going to savour the whole pathetic cutey egg. The liquid is acid.

Looking from the top... (= Every angle of the egg is cute and round and yellow and nice. =D

After you clear the acid, this is what it looks like. It's rather evening spread out though. And the skin's jumpy =DD It's sort-of soft and would go back to it's original shape after you "squeezed" it. Of course, you can't expect it to be as flexible as sponge!! Be gentle.
After that, we had to clean the egg with water. =DD
