Conclusion (March Post)

As I am writing this post, I have just concluded my powerpoint, and am also working on my reflection paper. Anyway, March for my MAD project was quite disappointing. Ricky and I signed up for 4 total breadruns hoping to make up for our lost time in February and yet none of them went through because all the shops we signed up for sold out before we could visit. If anything, it just goes to show that some plans, no matter how easy or simple they may seem, can fail due to circumstances outside your control. After all, we really had no idea of knowing what stores would sell out and it was just a matter of bad luck for us that we couldn't do breadruns. To sum up though, I'd rate my MAD project for the year as a semi or bare success, as we were able to do several (3) breadruns succesfully. However, knowing the high possibility of failure being very apparent in breadruns, I believe that what we should have done to avoid this would have been to simply sign up for more and just hope that we'd be able to go.

March Update

As I'm writing this, I just got off the phone telling FeedingHk that our bread run store once again ran out. I suppose it's a good thing that these stores are capable of selling everything and making money, but it is definitely frustrating for me to have signed up for so many bread runs and received a large amount of messages saying that our opportunity is gone. Of course, there's also a part of me that is glad that it sold out due to my own laziness, but I do want to go on more runs for the sake of having a successful MAD project. That being said, my plan is to go as I had previously stated as scheduling a bread run once every week for March to make up for our losses in February and possibly due the same in April depending on how many bread runs Ricky and I do in March.
