My Reflection: I'd say the assignment was moderately difficult. I didn't really take an empathetic approach as you did when you were in Russia. I focused mainly on pet peeves of mine. I did have one empathetic bug for the homeless, which as explained, this was obtained due to working at a homeless shelter. Even though I don't focus on these "bugs" on a consistent basis, it still was not hard to bring to light when necessary. This assignment brought notification to how many things actually do bother me. I wouldn't say it is good to be able to point things of this nature out at a moderately difficult level, or maybe I'm just abnormally observant. This assignment has given me an opportunity to lay out my annoyances right in front of me with the solutions right under them. I can see there is a lot of power in this. I look forward to implementing my solutions to my "bugs".
