It took a minute for the boiling water to not fog up the lens, but I finally managed to examine it. From what I could tell, the microorganism from the sample are all gone.

So I froze some water to look under my microscope; the water went from fluid drops to frozen microscopic cubes. I'll try boiling it next.
Soap looks kinda funny under the microscope...
Eyelashes have these little bugs on them when I look at them through the microscope (I wonder what they are).
Leather looks like it has octagonal holes decorated on it under the microscope.
Today's moral: Never let your neighbor's dog jump in you car (or sniff your equipment).
It's amazing how much feathers look like cloth under the microscope.
Leaf cells are very square and organized, not unlike wood. Remarkable.
Wasp stingers are more serrated than they appear (also don't look at insects under the microscope if you want to sleep well at night).
I saw a cute little baby turtle walk around in the yard today (it's so cute!)
The microscopic view of wood is surprisingly intricate and well ordered (and square).
I looked at the piece of carpet I found in the house under the microscope...other than tiny threads, I think I've seen some dust mites (trembles).
Paper, under microscopic vision, looks to be composed of tiny threads woven together (I need to look up how paper was made).
Grass under a microscope is smiling at you.
As luck would have it, my mother brought back some sea water for me, and what I've noticed is that there's plankton in sea water (and micro seashells).
Looking at brown sugar under a microscope, you see that the cubed crystals are still translucent.
There are so many life forms in pond water (mostly protozoans).
Looking at sand through a microscope is like looking at a whole different world (they look like sea shells).
The microscopic world is very interesting.
Science documentaries are fun to watch (and a good activity when it's too hot outside).
