Last Wednesday (I think), we had a science expo. I did static electricity. I was working on my own. Well, I was supposed to go with someone (I'm not going to name and shame) but he had an idea which was too complicated, and since I'm a lazy person, I decided to go on my own. The reason why I chose my experiment is because it was very simple and fun. Sadly, were still a little mad at each other, but it's ok. But I was regretting abandoning that person on the expo day because another person, whom we shall name Bob, spilled water all over my experiment! And here's a fun fact for you: static electricity doesn't work when it's wet. But I managed to clean it up before the judge came. Luckily, by some incredibly lucky chance, the experiments worked perfectly in front of the judge, but not in front of the kids. And that was very bad event number one. So after hanging a sign, which said 'Out of order, I'm a flop,' and I leant over and got some of my apparatus in my eye. Which, of course, turned out to be pepper. Ugh! Then after explaining why my experiment was a flop about a zillion times, bad event number three happened. Well, it wasn't really bad, just unfortunate. Someone accidentally knocked my salt container and it broke. Luckily Mr Raven helped me clean it up and my parents weren't mad. Then we could go home after that. Yay!
So if I learnt anything from the Science Expo it's to get sick and to not come to school. And also to choose an experiment which actually works. Apart from the very bad events, I had fun and I could laugh it off later.
