bubble trouble

You might get the impression that I'll be writing about either bubbles or witchcraft. Wrong. Then again chemistry might go along the lines of those two things, since it's all about mixing the chemicals right and some reactions are bound to release fumes or bubbles. But I'm getting off track.

I'm going to write about my science fair project, which is due in about 6 weeks and I still haven't the time/motivation to do anything about it. Whoops. Anyways, I'll be doing an experiment on the intelligence of fish, or if goldfish can actually learn to memorize things. It's kind of like B.F. Skinner's on the concept of "reinforcement", except the fish are going to have to discern which colored cup has the food after a week of repeated exercises. I'm using this experiment because biology's a science that I find really interesting, though I think chemistry is just as interesting. But anyhow, I picked biology this year because for the past two years all my projects were chemistry-related so I thought it'd be good to change it up a little bit in my senior year.


So here is where you can read about how my experiment works and I'll most probably write about it when the time comes.
