Olive Oil: .918 kg/m3
Soy Sauce: 1000 kg/m3
Honey: 1360 kg/m3
The order of substances would have to be olive oil on top, soy sauce in the middle, and honey on the bottom. This is because olive oil has the smallest density (.918 kg/m3) as compared to soy sauce (1000 kg/m3) and honey (1360 kg/m3). The substances are able to layer because the least dense substance floats on top of the denser substances. The most dense cannot float on a less dense substance and therefore goes to the bottom. Temperature could also possibly affect the order of layering.

Journal #2 - BP Oil Spill
Overall, I feel as though BP did as much as they could to prevent further damage to the Gulf of Mexico. In the article http://www.bp.com/subsection.do?categoryId=9036576&contentId=7067590 it describes the efforts to preserve sea animal/plant life in the Gulf. Also they describe their effort to pay off all the damage. Although the mistake they made was a huge one, it seems like they really are trying to help the situation and make things better for the people and animals living in that area.

Journal #1
This year I have many goals to which I hope to succeed. To start, I hope to get healthy in order to play in games for the GHS Varsity soccer team, which I haven't been able to yet due to an MCL injury. I also really hope I can achieve A's and B's in all my classes. Last year I did not have a very good math teacher and this year I hope my grade will improve in math, as I have Mr. Skirkanich who I have heard is a really good teacher. I am also really excited to make tie-dyes at the end of the year in Chem class. I am really excited about all the use of technology in our class, as it is much different than any other class I've been in. Finally, I hope to enter my photography into contests and win any sort of prizes.
