Assignment 2A- Bug List

1) The process for moving into my new apartment complex was a very slow and annoying process.
        -Why: The apartment complex was not well prepared for the amount of students who were coming to receive their keys so that they could move into their apartment. The lines were backed up and moving extremely slow. This could have been avoided with better preparation.
2) The miniature fan in my room does not rotate all of the time like it should. Initially, this was not an issue, but recently it has not been rotating properly.
        -Why: The fan must be positioned and angled properly on the surface for it to facilitate air around the entire room.
3) My Lenovo laptop battery tends to die a lot quicker than my previous laptop.
        -Why: This problem may exist due to how the laptop was manufactured or it may be due to how I am using my computer. I may be using applications that cause my batter to die quicker.
4) There is not enough hangers in my closet for all of my clothes that need to be placed on hangers.
       -Why: This is an issue because when I packed up my clothes from home to bring with me to school, I did not bring the hangers with me. I simply placed the clothing in my luggage bag. Now, I do not have enough hangers for my clothing.
5) The lotion that I am currently using does not moisturize my skin how I would like it to.
       -Why: The lotion that I purchased does not moisturize my dry skin. Therefore, I should purchase another type of lotion on my next visit to the store.
6) Receiving constant notifications and messages from a group chat message.
       -Why: This issue exist because my phone number was entered into a group chat and I was not aware that this was occurring.
7) On several occasions, I have not been able to find parking at the Chick-Fil-A restaurant on Archer Road.
       -Why: This problem may exist due to poor structural design when the building was first created.
8) My room being messy and not organized is something that bugs me.
       -Why: This issue exist because I haven't taken the time to clean up my room and make it more organized.
9) The walls in my room are plain and do not have any pictures or decorations on them.
       -Why: This issue exist because I have not put up any posters or pictures in my room to make it more decorative. I also have not purchased any designs or decorative items to place on the wall.
10) The Cox cable company took nearly two weeks to come to my apartment and fix my cable for my room.
       -Why: Due to poor communication between my apartment complex and the Cox company, this work order was prolonged. The initial date that the work order was supposed to be completed on got moved back due to poor communication.
11) The mattress that I have in my bedroom is uncomfortable.
      -Why: This mattress may be old and have been used to its capacity, so I may need to purchase a new one.
12) The lent that comes off of newly used towels is something that bugs me.
      -Why: The cotton sheds off of the new towels once they are wet, then the lent goes everywhere when using the towel.
13) Waiting an extended amount of time for a bus to come at night time.
      -Why: Due to the decrease in users of the transit system at night time, most buses do not run late at night or they don't run as frequently as they would during the day.
14) Going to the shoe store to purchase a pair of shoes, and they do not have my size.
       -Why: This problem may exist because customers before me purchased the exact same shoes size or the store did not order enough shoes for their inventory.
15) Having multiple assignments due on the same day for different classes.
       -Why: Due to procrastination and not looking ahead at my assignments, I have multiple assignments for different classes due on the same day.
16) Receiving food from a restaurant that is not fresh and hot for the customer.
       -Why: The kitchen staff at the restaurant may have let the food sit out too long before delivering it to the customer. Also, the food may not have been maintained at the proper temperature to maintain the freshness of the food.
17) It bugs me when the material on my shoe is torn or messed up.
      -Why: This issue may exist due to me positioning the shoes in a weird angle while walking or due to someone stepping on my shoe. This issue also may exist due to wear and tear.
18) Recently, my phone has been freezing up and loading the content very slowly.
      -Why: My device is full and needs to be cleaned out to clear up memory space. This can be what is causing my phone to process slowly.
19) Leaving the blinds in the front room open at night time is something that bugs me.
     -Why: This issue may exist because my roommate prefers to have the blinds open or simply because this is how they used to do it at their previous home.
20) It bugs me when the traffic light changes from green to yellow just as am I getting ready to past through the light.
      -Why: Many traffic lights are on a time limit and change immediately once that time period is over.

Reflection: This exercise was difficult and it required me to think outside of the box. It required me to think about things that I normally do not think about it. We come across things that bother us every day, but to actually write it out and analyze why the issue exist made this exercise challenging. It became harder and harder to come up with bugs as I got closer and closer to bug number 20. However, this exercise was fun and helped me expand my horizons.

  1. Prince,
    I really like your bug list because it shows that everyone has different things that bother them daily. The one that stood out to me that doesn’t bother me at all is when I let my room get messy. For some reason, when this happens to me, it doesn’t really bother me at all as it only affects me. The things that bug me in life is the “bugs” that affect me and other people in the world.

  2. Prince,
    It do really bother me if my room is messy and sometimes I am too lazy to organize it. It is a pretty annoying when memory space of my phone is full. It's usually because I had too many pictures. However, I don't really wanted to delete those pictures to free up the space. You do have many bugs that also bother me a lot that I did not come up with in my post. It is pretty fun to think about those problems that we would sometimes ignore in daily life.
