So in today's lesson we focused more on products and industry and how the place where goods are manufactured affects it's price. For example a car made in mexico or china would be cheaper than a car made right here in the USA because there is higher demand for work here. Also I learned that Jimmy's dad owns a pretty cool expensive business called window candles that sell beautiful mechanic candles. Wow lets hope Jimmy doesn't disappoint and continue the family business. Pretty cool lesson I say especially cause it was last mod and we talked alot around the class.

CIA WORLD FACTBOOK
In today's human geo class we talked about special or maybe not so special facts about countries in the world on the CIA world factbook. It was pretty interesting because I got to learn a lot about different countries in the world for example Fiji is made of over 300 different islands. Crazy things like being forced into the army in Greece and there being only about 2200 people living on Christmas Island. I looked up Antarctica and came to the point that if a world war broke out it would be the safest place to hide if you had proper stations and equipment to survive. This was a pretty interesting class.

REGIONS AND CULTURAL LANDSCAPE
In to day's Human Geo lesson we learned about how a region on earth is defined by it's culture, language and even religion. Mr. Schick put us into groups and we had to do an exercise on the map of the U.S and how it's divided into regions depending on how they voted over the last three terms. It wasn't all straightforward with that voting map because in order to place the states in regions the had to be close together unlike Maine and California which are on different sides of the country but both voted for the Democrat in the elections. Also we didn't get to finish our map exercises cause you know time and all that jack so I guess it's off to the next Human Geo lesson.
