Assignment 2A-Bug List

1)The abundance of traffic at 8 am on Southwest 20th avenue is ridiculous and seems to always occur.
Why; There is only one lane for what seems to be 8 apartment complexes filled with students. This means that when school starts there are a numerus amounts of students attempting to drive to school causing a traffic congestion.

Why; he might be a sumo wrestler or aerobics instructor. Also, the ceiling might be poorly constructed with cheap thin material allowing for sound to travel through.

3)The drive-through line at Chick-Fil-A on Archer is always backed up.

4)The fact that I cannot fall asleep until its 2 am or later.
Why; This could be due to my late exercising hours where I start a workout at 8 pm and finish at 10pm. Thus, creating an adrenalin pump right before my supposed bedtime. Also, academic stress could be impairing my sleep pattern.

Why; Low Budget or budgeting issues could be causing this problem. Thus, only heavily student populated areas receive shelters.

12)Misleading fitness/physique goals implemented by models in the fitness industry.

20)Maintaining a low sodium intake.
Why; sodium is found in many products that are pre-made, as a flavor additive and preservative. In a busy schedule pre-made products can be time savers and sometime are necessary in order not to starve.

Reflection

This assignment is very interesting, I had never sat down and analyzed the things that bother me in my everyday life. I was told this would be difficult to do; however, this was not the case for me. The first three were the most difficult but, once I got the ball moving it became easier and easier. They presented a challenge because of the lack of experience, not know exactly where to start or how. Once I began to self-evaluate it became easier.  This has opened a new perspective I never seemed to understand nor think about, maybe now I can fix some of them.
