February Update

Good news and bad news. First of all, the trip on January 27 went perfectly! We returned around three bags of bread and we even managed to coordinate ourselves with another ICS MAD group doing bread runs, which made it a lot more fun. Of course, there were some problems, primarily how late we had to do this. I left at around 8:30 and got home around 11:00. To give an example about how hard it can be, I had to write an assignment for my AP Enviro class that would require writing up to 1,000 words long. When I got home, I typed as fast as I could and was luckily able to submit it at 11:45. There's even more bad news though. First of all, for some reason, there are no February bread runs on the FHK website. In response, I plan on doing 4 bread runs at least in March to make up for our lost bread runs. However, scheduling bread runs are going to be even harder now since Ricky got a job. We haven't talked about specifics, but I believe that he is trying to arrange his work for only Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays (Bread runs are only on Tuesday and Thursday) so hopefully he can arrange that. It is definitely possible that we can work around Ricky's work dates, but putting bread runs in some of his few free days are going to make his academic life a lot harder as well, so this is quite a tough situation but I believe that we are more than capable of managing it.
