Within this post I think you made some very valid points about the things that bug you, I especially agree with number five and sixteen. I admire your points of view with some of your bugs, for example numbers sixteen and four are things I didn't even think to consider. With all this being said, I would suggest being more specific and descriptive in future submissions. Some of your "bugs" are literally one or two words which doesn't tell me much about why they bug you. Your why's are supposed to explain what causes your bugs, but many of them just tell me why they bug you. If you didn't provide why's for your bugs, I wouldn't be sure what you meant by saying time management bugs you. Try to take your more time to thoroughly think about your next submission and put more detail in into it. :)

ReplyDeleteHey Juan! I enjoyed learning a bit about your perspective and I can certainly agree with a few of your bugs. Foremost, I can relate to your fifth bug. Apartment complexes truly do take advantage of students when it comes to providing services. It sad that I've realized this for years and I am ready to leave the complex I am in now. When it comes to move-in days, apartments should already have all units prepared for students staying in them. It seems like a scam. I also agree with you bug #13! I hate seeing someone violate the law on the road when I've gotten pulled over for it. It is not fair but things are all meant to happen at the right time.
