Quitting Time

With the holiday season upon us, I've decided to take a break from pretty much everything until New Years and enjoy some down time with the family. I finished up the semester last Friday, and don't start up again until mid-January. I'm hoping to come back rejuvenated and with some ideas to keep improving my classes to make it more enjoyable for my students to learn and for me to teach. After about 4 months of trading with actual $, I've discovered I've got a whole lot left to learn- fortunately, I started off really small so I haven't lost too much yet. It's been very humbling experience for me- every time I think I had things sorta' figured out (I can think of 3 instances specifically), the market took me down and showed me who's boss! I'm confident that through discpline, intense study and good ol' fashioned hard work, I will be successful in 2008.
