Bug List- Assignment 2



1.     Bed sheets moving around everywhere when sleeping
·       Due to movement when I am sleeping, the bed sheets move around from under me, getting wrinkled and in the way.
2.     Back of the shoe hitting the back of your ankle
·       The back of the shoe being too high up and rubbing the back of your ankle because of walking.
3.     Shoelaces always falling out of place (not staying in a bow or inside the shoes)
·       Due to the movement of walking or not tying your shoelaces tight enough, shoelaces can come undone or move out of place.
4.     Not having where to stand my backpack when working
·       The floor can sometimes be dirty and is not an adequate place for my new backpack. There is no hooks or extra chairs for my backpack to be put on.
5.     Having nowhere to put my air pods when I don’t have pockets and need both my hands
·       Many pants don’t have a need for pockets, which eliminates storage for any personal items.
6.     Getting multiple notifications at the same time on my phone (emails and text)
·       Many people may need to reach out at the same time, or emails may blow up due to a problem that needs to be addressed.
7.     Not having organized sock drawer in my closet
·       I organize my drawers and then whenever I am in a hurry, I don’t put things back where they need to be in an organized matter.
8.     Having my tea bag fall in the cup completely
·       The tea bag is heavy due to its absorption of water and pulls the light string all into the water with it.
9.     The garage door slamming early in the morning
·       My parents must leave the house early in the morning, and always leave in a hurry, causing the door to slam.
10.  The shower curtain not staying closed in the shower
·       The shower curtain moves around due to the water hitting it and moving it, or because of an air vent moving it around.
11.  Not having a stable place to write when being in a car (notebook or book as surface)
·       Due to the movement of the car, there is no way to write on a surface without it moving with the cars force.
12.  The floor mat moving around on the floor in the bathroom
·       The mat does not have any grasp for the floor and slides everywhere.
13.  Not being able to open up pistachio pieces
·       Some pistachio pieces are very hard to open, and you cannot open them with your hands.
14.  When I am talking to someone and they start having another conversation with someone else
·       This happens because the person may not be totally interested in what your conversation is about and wants to talk to someone else over you.

15.  Forgetting to fill up my water bottle at night
·       I am already in bed and comfortable and did not remember to fill it.
16.  Not charging my headphones or thinking they are completely charged but then they die
·       I assume that my headphones are charged and when I go to use them, they are dead or almost dead.
17.  When someone tries to have a conversation with me when I have my headphones in
·       People do not see my headphones sometimes or think I am not listening to music and assume I can have a conversation and am not busy.
18.  Leaving something at my house when I am already almost at my destination
·       I forget to bring what I thought I would remember, and now it is left home.
19.  When the trash is not taken out on Tuesdays and Fridays
·       My family, or myself forgets to throw out the trash and now it is taking up space.
20.  Stepping on gum accidently
·       Not seeing where your stepping and people throwing their used gum on the ground, causes for gross moments like these.

Reflection: At first, coming up with a few bugs was frustrating due to the lack of not being able to remember all the small things that "bug" me day to day. As I got farther along into the assignment, it became easier to acknowledge little things and I would write them down as soon as I thought of them to not forget. After I started writing things down, the process became much easier.

  2. Hi Sophia! I also had a hard time coming up with a list of the 20 things that bug me as my day-to-day does not involve me updating the list of things that bug me. For me the list became harder as I was constantly getting stuck trying to come up with another "bug". I found that finding the "why" to each point on the list helped me understand why one of the items on my list would happen, maybe next time I will think about the why and not get bugged. After reading your list I was able to identify more bugs that I did not think about for my list. I also don't like getting many notifications at once, I also do not like to have the red circle with the amount of notifications that I have for each app. Thank you for sharing, your list and reasons were very asserted.
