getting off the interstate.

thousands of people coming to watch the game and there is only one major road
leading into Gainesville.

humid.

Publix are extremely cold.

only park on certain floors.
2
20. New jars of jelly are always hard to open
because of how tight they are packaged.
Because they must
be sealed tight to keep out bacteria and keep it fresh for customer use.
When doing this
assignment some of them were easy to come up with because those happen to me daily.
But others were a little more complicated to think of because they did not happen
recently or they did not have a big impact towards me. Also, this assignment
was a little challenging overall because I usually don’t look at situations
this way. Thinking of the why part and coming up with the last few was the hardest
part of this assignment.
Hey Will. I think you did a great job on your bug list. The bugs you have toward the cold aisles in Publix and at a doctors office made me laugh because I always hate walking through those aisles in Publix, and just hate cold in general. Also some of your bugs on The Standard were interesting because I was looking for a place to stay on campus, and will keep them in mind. I had a little more trouble coming up with a list because I'm off campus for now, and I'm sure some of the bugs you mentioned I would also have. And I agree, the assignment was a little challenging because it presents a different way to look at situations. Great job though.
ReplyDeleteHi Will. I really enjoyed reading you bug list. It was interesting to see how many bugs I can relate to, mostly the ones pertaining to the traffic around town and also traveling home. I would have really liked to have heard more about bugs on the cruises you have taken or the places you have been. I have not been many places, so I think this would be a neat different perspective to hear about what bugs you in those situations.I agree about the last few bugs being hard. I too had to keep track of what bugged me over a few days in order to meet the 20 bug goal. Thanks Will.
