Candy stock exchange

As i walk into the darkened classroom, i see projectors on the wall throwing images of the stock exchange. the matched audio shows a flurry of voices and even more chaos breaks loose inside the classroom. all of a sudden, i realize people are grabbing candy and monopoly money off the ground. i jumped over the barrier of computers beside me, finding an area rich in sugary and paper goodness. hoarding all that i can, i make my way to a secluded location. "The market is open!" i hear Kapptie yell over the thrum of scrambling bodies and scattering candy. i sort mine into neat piles and organize them alphabetically by color. after that, it's a scramble for who can stockpile the most valuable candies. Tellese, bless her heart, smashed all opposition with 6 thousand and some odd dollars, overpowering my measly two grand. all in all, i survived the chaos, but just barely.
