Some Ideas...

1. Pykrete: a composite material which is made of ice and sawdust/wood pulp, said to be much stronger and tougher than normal ice, with a slower melting rate too. Is this true? Unfortunately, I found out that MythBusters have done experiments on pykrete during my research.

2. Playing music to crystals: does it make them prettier? Research by Dr. Masaru Emoto shows that music does indeed have and effect on the growth of crystals. However, many details of Dr. Masaru Emoto's experiments are ambiguous. Perhaps I could build experiments around this topic to prove/disprove his hypothesis. 

3. Subjecting flower petals to different conditions, such as soaking in different types of liquids, blowing with hairdryer, freezing it etc. Perhaps I can observe the changes to the flower petal under a microscope.


4. Observing the effects of different environmental conditions to small insects (e.g. ants), as well as their behaviours and reactions. Environmental conditions refer to hot and cold, acidic and alkaline etc.


5. Static electricity: in China, it only occurs during winter. Why? Can we measure the amount of static electricity given off in different situations? From my own experience static electricity is very annoying and uncomfortable, so I want to think of ways to reduce it.
