Reflection
I found this list to be quite difficult
because I’m not used to picking these things out. I normally try to live my
life without thinking about the things that necessarily bug me almost every day.
In my head, if you were to think about
all the things that bug you like this, you would be a miserable person. I have
the habit of putting these “parasites” in the back of my head and only bring
them up when I’m thinking about nothing else. But overall, it was interesting
to find what really bugs me. Some of the things I jokingly say that it bugs me
because it just happens on a day-to-day basis.
