My bug list

Things that "bug me"

I am a nice person... I promise :)

1.) People who do not ask for help but complain about their situation.
Why? I am a straight forward individual with a passion for helping others achieve the best versions of themselves. I love helping people but it annoys the day lights out of me when someone complains without seeking a resolution.
2.) When someone complains and does not try and resolve the issue themselves
Why? Well, I consider my self an autonomous learner and I always try and search for a resolution to a problem before I ask for help. If you struggle to figure something out, chances are you will learn it faster and retain it longer.
3.)Me not losing weight
Why? I have been working out and trying to incorporate healthier lifestyle practices into my life and I am impatient and I want results now. This is impractical and I know it but it is still something that bugs me.
4.)When my husband leaves ALL of the cabinets open
My husband will go into the kitchen to make one item and only need to use one thing and yet all of the cabinets will be open. It is probably the most annoying thing in the world, just don't go into the kitchen!
5.)When I am ready to go to the Pool and get a nice workout in and it starts to rain... Thanks Florida!
Why? Well, I have started implementing "sun time" into my lifestyle practices in order to get healthier by being active. However, the sun seems to like to hide behind large rain clouds right when I put my bathing suit on and walk out side.
6.)Dishes... all things dishes
Why? time consuming tasks are the worst. I'd rather spend my time doing something that will either educate me or make me healthier. I know dishes come with the territory of food but why?
7.) Making food
Why? I hate hate hate cooking. It also is time consuming and i'd rather spend my time otherwise. I love food and I love eating but I prefer to be learning all the time and cooking takes me away from that.
8.)ProctorU
Why? I think I dislike ProctorU more than anything else in this world. It often feels like a giant waste of time. I will schedule my appointment for a specific time and always, without fail, there will be some type of technical issue that needs to be resolved. I am sitting there looking at a proctor toggle my screen for 45 minutes and I still am not taking my test.... three hours later I am so irritated and mad that I can't focus on the task at hand. I could speak all day about my ProctorU frustrations
9.)People who don't tip people in the service industry
Why? Well, its common sense... Did you get up and get your refill on your 10 cokes and 6 waters? No? hmmm... Did you order blindly and then not like your food and still expect me to take it back and make you a new dish? Did I run and get you an entire bag of ranch or honey mustard? Chances are, you kept me busy and yet you still don't understand how the service industry works.
10.)No cell service in my Apartment
Why? This makes me dangerous... I contemplate throwing my phone at a wall and then realize that solution will not do anything to help the situation. It's soooo annoying to be sitting down comfortably reading and then receive a phone call where you spend 5 minutes saying "hello? can you hear me? Hello? HELLO?"
11.)UF Financial aid department
Why? Did you submit all of your documents four months in advance? Oh, you did? Oh well, you're still going to be pressured at last minute to turn something else in and then you will receive your aid late and not be able to purchase text books and then you'll have to drop your course. Fun stuff and It happens every time.
12.)Family members who have kids and try to guilt trip me into loaning them money
Why? My husband and I are "well off" you could say. We work very very hard and we are able to afford a luxurious lifestyle because of it. I don't have children and I don't want them so I am able to save money and focus on myself right now, That is my own person preference. But for some reason my Aunt with 6 kids thinks its necessary for me to buy her luxury items like a phone because she can't afford it... because she has 6 kids... ok.
13.)A dirty house
Why? I don't have enough time on my hands to cook let alone clean. My husband like to go into the kitchen and make a sandwich or something else and leave EVERYTHING open. This includes the mayo, lunch meat, pickles, cheese, the milk... I mean did you even use the milk? No? Why is it out! there are dirty dishes that get pilled up and I walk into a clutter 10 minutes after cleaning...
14.)When something goes on sale after buying it
Why? Um, why wouldn't this be the most annoying thing in the world? I love to spend money but I also love to save money so I can spend it on more stuff like vacation.
15.)Returning items
Why? I hate shopping in side stores because they are always crowded and I'd rather shop online. Typically I never return anything because its such a frustrating process.
16.)Being rushed
Why? Well, all good things come in due time. its stressful and anxiety inducing to be rushed with something that will obviously take time to do.
17.)Running late
Why? I absolutely hate hate hate running late. I typically have a set schedule and a set plan for everything. I planned my entire 10 vacation by the hour. If i am late I am most likely the worst person to be around for a brief moment, or at least until I find food to calm me down.
18.) People who are on their phones during a conversation
Why? This is just plain out disrespectful. I like old fashion conversations where both parties contribute.
19.)People who engage in a conversation when I am on the phone
Why? Well, I am on the phone and It is disrespectful. Not only that, but it takes my concentration away from the conversation and I lose my train of thought trying to politely tell you that my phone is not awkwardly placed on my ear for looks and trends...
20.)losing my train of thought
Why? I think it comes with age but it bugs me because most thoughts have great potential and then poof! they're just gone. This always sucks because in my mind ill be like "That's a great thought! lets write it down before I forget it" Then I search for paper and I forget it in the process.



Wow! this was fun and actually quite easy after I got started. It kinda felt like a venting platform after I got the first 5 things out. I had to actually call my husband and ask what my pet peeves were because I couldn't think of any. It's funny because he was spot on about everything and in my mind I was like "uh, why couldn't I of thought of that? Its my own bug."

  1. Tara actually your bug list made me laugh a bit. I actually related with some items from your bug list, especially #10. It seemed much easier for you to do it then it was for me. I actually had to think hard for this list. I think you have a good perception to find problems, which is a very important skill for an entrepreneur.
