The day after yesterday and before tomorrow
Today we just had the laptop cart in the classroom. The first thing I did on the laptop was to go on to investopedia. My stocks have been doing much better in the last few days that i haven't touched them. I went from being in dead last place to being in 4th last place. The stock that has been causing me the most trouble is my stem cells stock. The whole time I have had this stock it has been down except for one day it went up 0.1% and then went negative again later that day. Once the stem cell stocks go up again I'm planning to sell all of my stocks. The stocks that have been making me the most money however are Google and Coca-cola. I'm now going to start working on my presentation for my budget proposal.

Today
Today in our Honors Economics class, we did notes on Modern economics, Promoting growth and stability, and providing public goods. I learned that Laissez faire means Hands off in French. I also learned that a profit motive is the force that encourages somebody to improve themselves. We also started the class by watching a video on opportunity cost. The opportunity cost is the most desired alternative given up at the results of a decision. An example of opportunity cost is asking a girl to the prom. If you ask the girl you want the most the opportunity cost is that you won't be taking the second girl that you wanted most. This is what we covered today in our Economics class, I cannot wait to see what happens tomorrow!

Today
Today we are the lab number 249. Today i worked on my Investopedia account. My stocks are not doing that well, more than half of my stocks have gone down so I had to sell portions of my few stocks that were going down to make some money. By selling stocks though I was able to make about $2,000 dollars. The only person that I am currently ahead of in the stock game is Ko-rhee and I am barley ahead of him. Hopefully the money I made from selling my stocks today will get me further ahead or at least keep me above Ko-hree. Today I also started this blog which seems to be a very simple and easy way to get points, as long as I remember to keep it updated. Well that's my blog for today, bye.
