Day 1 of My Independance

Omg, we had to meet at the school at around 8am…And silly me, I didn’t get a good sleep the other night too. Tsk tsk. I forgot the most important thing for a girl…a RAZOR. Grr, good thing we stopped at a Target later on and I picked up a pack.

We made a pit stop in Fargo or something. I went to get some money changed for lunch. Their small mall is even bigger than the biggest mall we have (holy shit!). I bought some ramune for long…long…road ahead.

That night we went to watch a baseball game. Twins…against…I can’t remember. But it’s ok, because Twins won. It was AMAZING. I saw a homerun, someone catch a foul ball (which happens more often than I thought), our school was on the jumbo tron and we at kettle corn. Yum yum! My friends who were taking an exam that day flew in later than night after the game. I think my eyes were sparkling that day.

Surface Tension

 Last week I entered the AAPT Physic Photo contest. (AAPT= American Association of Physics Teachers). I submitted this beauty. These are pennies with drops of water on them. It’s to show the surface tension of water. Its molecules are polar and this is what causes them to dome up like this. The positive hydrogen ions bond to other negative oxygen ions making hydrogen bonds. This is also why they have good adhesion. I hope I win or atleast get honourable mentioned. Judging is in July. I don’t care about the prize, the fact that my photo can be on a poster is good enough for me!
