CA1 first post

Very little things have happened over the past week ... It seems like I have passed another weekend of my life, doing nothing really special . But in school , there might have things that are different happening .
Well... Yesterday there was nothing special but , if you consider it special , an interesting lesson on refracting light by my class's teacher, Mr Koh!
The definition on light bending , change of speed , different density , so on... We were asked to do an experiment that will teach us more about the refracting of light , like the angles that the light bends at when a glass block is put in between the light's path. At first I did not really understand what Mr Koh was teaching or what he was saying about the experiment until I got a hands-on experience on it. I was very slow at first, but after understanding the things that I needed to do, I soon got faster and faster. People who completed early were given extra bonus marks, two extra marks for finishing early, and one for finishing a bit slower than Mr Koh's standard of slow( which then again, I think that the extra marks do not count in anything, but just as a moral boost, since it was not included in exam marks, I think). But when I finished, I did not get any extra marks as i was just on time, but not late.
