<First Day- April 17th, 2016>
- Very moist • cold
- holes • light yellowish color
- soft • squeezy-easily bended by hands
- circular shape • smell-less
- Number of circles inside the lotus root is same, which is nine.
- Each circle’s sizes differs each other.
- When I put them on that plastic bag, the water inside the lotus root kept dropping.
<Second Day- April 19th 2016>
- little bit harder than the first day
- still I could bend them if I press it hard
- edges of the lotus root are rising up
- size shrank- entire size and size of inside circles
- light yellow color changed into little darker color- some parts were still light yellow other parts were little dark yellow
- I changed the plastic bag to tissue paper in order to soak moist from the lotus root
- the shape changed as they were dried
- The speed of dehydrating relies on the temperature and humidity of my room
<Last Day- April 20th 2016>
- very hard: I could not bend them
- Entire lotus roots became light brown color.
- each one has a different shape- nothing is same in size and color
- looks like human’s bone
- still smell-less
- some parts are rough and sharpy
