The Oobleck Journey

Oobleck. meaning NON-NEWTONIAN FLUID
Thanks to Ten Cheer, I finally realized that I had been playing with it all along while my mum was making kuey.
Now, run along and check out this cool videos.

I also tried to make the fluid, known as 'watery dough' to aunties.
It's really fun and easy (though messy). Just get a container and add cornstarch and water in the ratio of 2-3:1. I'm not sure if cornstarch is cornflour, but I replaced it with cornflour and it worked. I also added some red food colouring and it ended up looking like strawberry ripple ice-cream.

The star [GOO!]

I put it on the cloth.

The cloth absorbed some moisture and I could pick it up easily as a solid, but soon dripped.

I put it in the freezer.

It hardened.

My body temp melted it.

I put it in the toaster oven.

It dried and hardened up. I used a fork to poke it open.

The food colouring sank to the bottom.

ODD!~ 慧田

If I can go next year, I will definitely go :) Haha I did many jobs. 1st job: Give 10km medals. 2nd job: Give 100-plus. 3rd job: Give bananas. 4th job: Give 24km shirt and medal. 5th job: Mark runners' bibs. YAY! :) Hahahaha. So fun! They gave us a lot of food too. Dinner: rice box. Supper: 1 fried chicken drumlet, 2 nuggets, 1 small curry puff. 3am (breakfast?): 1 slice of cake, 1 doughnut ball, 1 (idk what it's called, it's a small hollow bread with chocolate cream in it). And I had ice-cream too! Trying to make us fat?! I also drank 2 cans of 100-plus. After the marathon ended at abt 8+am, nobody wanted to go RSAF Open House w me :( Even Mr Poh didn't want to go anymore. So I wanted to go home and sleep for a few hours and go by myself, but I overslept u...

Today was Science and English Paper 2. I thought the Science paper was the easiest paper so far. But apparently it did not seem so to the rest. English was okay... But the terrible thing was the summary shld be 150 words, but i got only 129. Sianz. Today I didn't bring my wallet again... Leading to slight gastric pain -.- These few days been addicted to some stuff... E.g playing with the tennis ball, kajiao-ing almost all my friends. Like in the Archie comics, Dilton had stuff to do for people while Reggie had stuff to do TO people. So probably I'm the Reggie kind. HAH And I've decided that a digital clock is much nicer against the background than an orange clock that drips citric acid. So there. De...
