Reflection:
It was very difficult to start my list, but once I started it was pretty easy. I began just thinking about my daily life and what I think in my head. Everyone has things that bug them everyday. I have all of these things that bug me in my everyday life, but I never really do anything to stop them. Most of the time there is nothing I really can do.
I definitely can relate to most of your bug list. I feel like the worst thing in the world is when you pull into a parking lot and see that there are no more spaces so you have to walk really far to wherever you're going. I can definitely relate to that one. This was an awesome bug list and I really enjoyed reading it
ReplyDeleteI surely can relate to several of the bugs you've listed. Even the smallest irritants in life can have a significant effect on the way someone functions. For instance, having wet socks may not seem like a big deal but I know I wouldn't be able to concentrate on any of my schoolwork if I still had them on. One improvement that I would suggest would be to lengthen your bugs to help readers get a better idea of what you're attempting to describe.
ReplyDeleteI completely agree with almost all of your items on the bug list. It seems that quite a few of them have to do with driving and grocery shopping. I also agree with you that it was difficult to start, but as I thought more about the world around me, it became easier to figure what it was that bugged me throughout the day.
ReplyDeleteI relate to a lot of the bugs you listed here. I also agree with you that it started out difficult to find bugs, but I just started writing things down during the day and came up with 20 pretty easily after that. The bug you talked about with spilling food on clothes is one I understand a lot. Whenever I'm wearing clothes I don't want to stain it seems they stain easier than usual.
