One of the challenges that I came across was finding annoying problems in my day to day life. I believe that the majority of the time I just ignore most of the problems in life and just accept them as a matter of fact. Also, I had trouble looking for reasons behind the problems other than "well that's how its always been." The last thing I found very difficult about the assignment is seeing how any of these ideas have a pracical solution or whther they are just inevitable issuess.
