Prompt: Make a list of four or five things that "tick you off." Explain why. (Choose significant things that others might experience as well. For instance, your little brother might tick you off, but there is little chance that this annoyance will yield a possible paper topic). It is possible that one of these annoyances can be transformed into an interesting, engaging, and researchable project.
The several things that tick me off or drive me crazy in a form of a pet-peeve include physical contact of any kind (hand-shaking, hugging, and hand-holding for prolonged periods of time), drama (including reality shows, secret keeping, and physical quarrels), waiting for prolonged periods of time (including waiting for a video games to come out), me or other people who are sick (including but not limited to colds, influenza, coughs, rashes, viruses, etc.), and getting below 90s in my classes (for example: journalism 88%). It is possible that some of these annoying idiosyncrasies can convert into an interesting project; most specifically the annoyance of germs and bacteria.
