Self Assessment on 20% Project

What was my 20% project? - My project was to get people more aware of how important sleep is. Also how lack of sleep affects a persons behavior.

How I feel I did overall on my 20% project- Overall I feel I didn’t do good. I didn’t get the feed back like I think I should have gotten. I attempted posters and random facts about sleep, this didn’t seem to spark interest of people. So next I went to twitter, on here I would tweet fun facts about sleep. It seems like my “fun” facts about sleep actually put people asleep instead of informing them about sleep… if that makes since.... I guess in a way that’s what my end goal was but not that way. Overall my project was not a success.

Will I continue my project after school?- No I do not think I will continue my project after school is over. It didn’t spark my interest like I thought it would have.

How could I have done better?- I honestly think I could have tried a lot harder on my project the I did.

End of the April 20% post

Recap semester to this point good/bad - I had a rough start with my 20% project. I wanted a way to share information on the importance of sleep. I wasn't sure how to present my information in an interesting way. I attempted a few thing but nothing was really seeming to work like I had hoped. I met with Mr. O'Nile and got a lot a great information on sleep. When I tried to share the information no one seemed to care as much as I did, they don't want to listen. I tried the preaching method, posters, Facebook,   Snapchat and twitter. Twitter and a little better result then my other attempts but still not I was looking to get.

What is this months target? - This is the home stretch, the end of the semester, I'm going to hit it with everything I got. I am going to make my time worth while. I have put a lot into this and I'm not just gonna give up. My hope is to hit a home run !! 

How will you assess success? - I guess for me I depends on the outcome of how many peoples attention I get. So far it's not looking so hot , but I can try :)

I agree with what he said. He brings up a lot of good points in his speech. He isn't like most actors, he has actually had to work in his life befor being famous. 

Stock post

The two previous stocks I bought were Hershey and Walmart. My catalyst for both company's was Easter. Neither of my stocks went up as I had hoped. I bought Walmart at $78.20 and sold it  at $79.68. I bought Hershey's at $99.24 and sold it at $96.21.

I have created a twitter account to tell people about sleep. I will tweet random facts to create awareness on how important sleep really is. 

Trade vs investment

The stocks I bought are both trades. I bought 19 stocks for each of my companies. I bought Walmart for $78.20 per share. I also bought the Hershey's co for $99.24 per share. The catalyst for both of my companies is the upcoming Easter holiday. As Easter get closer I believe both of my stocks will go up at least $5 per share. Near the end of my catalyst event I will sell both of stocks. I will do this because I don't want the business to slow down so much that the price of the shares will go down.
