Reflection: Throughout the day I noticed countless things that bugged me. If I did not write them down initially, it was hard for me to remember them. When I sat down the first time to do this assignment, it would take me a good amount of time just to think of one thing that bugged me. Afterwards, the second something bothered me, I would be quick to mark down what it was so I would not forget. If I could instantly mark down everything that bugged me throughout my life, I am sure the list would be increasing dramatically.
