To Task a One

This week’s been… not fun. Task 1 isn’t really  working out as well as I was hoping even though it should’ve been way more streamlined than it is now. The main problem is the fact that the available times that the schools offer don’t work with the mentors’ schedules. I don’t understand why they can’t offer more times; for some reason we had more flexibility in the previous 2 years, than this current one.

I had to run out to MBSS to help out some of the teams so that they didn’t get a mentor due to the midterms and just being waay out on the Westside. This is definitely a lot more work than I was planning on. The teams had some interesting ideas: One was thinking of using toilet flushes to generate energy, another was biodegradable pencils, and the last was a “Rent-a-car” style business that rented environmentally friendly cars to teens. We weren’t able to get ahold of one team because of exams or something but I have a good feeling about these guys (and girls).
