Title: {Biotech Fair (Part I)}
Okay, today Biotech fair lah. That life science competition... Have to wear long pants and belt and... (everything the sec 3, 4, 5 have to wear.) Look much more older with those things on however. Anyway went to Ngee Ann Poly to showcase your experiment. There are 4 teams from our school and 2 of them are seniors, Sec 3, took a while to decorate everything and get ready.
Lunch time we went to their canteen and it totally LOOK LIKE A AIR CONDITIONED FOOD CENTRE WITOUT THE AIR-CON. The food there is cheap (but still not cheaper than our school >.<) then, I came across a store, which our school did not have. A dessert store. It sells stuff just like the store in the food center and the price is totally crazy. $0.6o for a Ice
kachang. $1 for a
longan almond. The price is so cheap, that I bought two.
During the judging of the exhibition, the judges ask some question about our project that we did not expect. Who would have expected 'Why don't people buy terepenes instead of essential oil and spray it?' when the topics is 'anti-microbial potential of plants'? Who would? But overall it was OK. they said so and we were relieved.
The Prize: 1 Gold, 1 Silver, 1 Bronze and 8 Certificate Of Participations
The number of groups: 70+
Chances of getting a prize: (13/70+) = 1/6 = >16%
Chance of getting top 3: (3/70+) = 1/26 = >2%
Shoot, no hope already...
Lazy to write today somehow...
