I hate it when someone cuts in front of you on the way to school and doesn't even wave or thanks you. I think everytime someone does that, you should be legally responsible to give them the finger or say, "No Thank YOUUUU."

The daily hassles that drive me crazy are too much to even list, but ONe that comes to mind is the slow driver in the fast lane. I really can't understand why a person who drives under the speed limit always ends up in the fast lane, which some may not know is the left lane. When this incompetent driver ends up in the fast lane and not the right lane it slows everyone who is in that lane to slow down, and when everyone starts to pass them they still continue on as if they never got the hint. What is wrong with these guys? Don't they know are do they even care? Well anyways people like that don't ever change but it sure feels great to get it off my chest!!!!!

My daily hassel that drive me crazy is waking up in the morning for school. I go to bed very late and have a very hard time waking up in the morning. My first class is a language class that count attendance, so it became a problem when I am late to class most of the time.

The worst hassle of the day is getting out of a warm bed on a cold morning. Just knowing what you're getting up for, usually work or school, is enough to make you want to pull the covers over your head and prolong the weekend for just one more day.

1) Driving in traffic
2) People being late for commitments/appointments

aloha
what drives me crazy are idiots! I have a hard time being patient with idiots. Like the other day I was trying to talk to someone who obviously has never opened a book about the issue he was trying to defend, I did not know how to explain to him that he was wrong not because of opinion but simply out of knowledge. But don't worry I am trying everyday to be better and improving so it won't drive me crazy anymmore.

My life is filled with stressful events that occur everyday. Whether minor or major, stress is apart of my life everyday. Here are just a few examples of stressful things that I encounter: 1)Living in the dorm is stressful for many reasons....when i'm trying to study for a test, there are so many inconsiderate people who blast there radios in the middle of the night, are singing out loud(therefore echoing into my room), and yelling across the buildings; and what stresses me out even more, is that the library closes early. But most of all, the thing that bugs me most about dorming, is the fire drills that go off in the middle of the night!!!! 2)School is another stressful thing too! Sometimes I get too carried away in playing around, and when test time comes around, I'm all stressed out for procratinating! Plus, the fact that I have 7:30 classes too, doesn't help much either! Anyways, here are just a couple of stressful events that happen in my life! But, what I can say is that sometimes you can't prevent things from making you stressed out and other times you can. But overall, stress is just apart of everyday life that you have to deal with.

Stress occurs when I have to take an exam. I think waiting for my results is more stressful though. I keep thinking of the mistakes I might have made. I also get tired of waking my sister up every morning. She seems to have a problem with getting up with her alarm. This becomes irritating because if she gets up late that means we will be late for school. Lucky for her she has a five minute grace period, but I'll be marked tardy for my seven-thirty class. Other than that, my life is a bowl of cherries.

When you're doing something in your computer class and it's really hard and it's taken you days and days to figure out what you're doing and then the computer network crashes right before you get to save and everything you just did goes down the toliet. I it when that happens!! :(

The following are quotes taken from papers written for a Psychology 222 class. These papers, entitled "Why Can't They Do It Another Way?" are collected and binded together to form the Daily Round Archives. I have selected the following because they most closely resemble what I would consider data for my Daily Hassles That Drives Me Crazy database. Some of the hassles below may not exist today because they were written by students almost 20 years ago.

When I get off of work from Zippy's, I'm usually very tired on the bus and need to walk all the way down Dole Street to get to the Hale Aloha dorms. (The bus drops us off on University Avenue) I could barely make it from Zippy's to the bus stop and I have to walk down Dole Street! Also sometimes I work overtime and get back here really late, it's especially dangerous for a girl who walks alone. Why can't they have a bus route through Dole Street?

On Tuesday morning I usually attempt to sleep as late as possible because that is the only day of the week that I am not scheduled to go to school or to work until 12:00. this morning at 7:30 I was literally shaken out of bed by loud trucks, drilling, and men yelling, whistling, etc. Quite upset because of this rude awakening, I drowsily walked to the kitchen window. From this window I saw the street, which I live on, blocked by several City and County trucks, many men who were of big stature standing around and heavy equipment laying on the sidewalk. However, some men were holding drills and unfortunately were drilling into the asphalt directly in front of our house. Also it was a windy morning so heavy dust was blowing in the direction of the living and dining room

Last October 11, 1977 I went to Ewa Beach Bank of Hawaii to cash my check. When I arrive there was two rows of line. I saw five windows but only three tellers are open. The other two were closed. So what I did, I fall in line any way to see how long this will take to cash my check. I wait almost thirty minutes before I arrive in the teller window. I told the teller, how come the other two windows are closed and lots of people are waiting in line. She said, that there is a certain time that a certain teller is onduty while they are at lunch. Why can't they open the other two windows while the line was very long during the busy hours?

The following are things about UH that irritates me:
  1. I think that the whole UH system of registration should be another way. They should adapt a computerized system to make it easier for all the students. Why can't they do it this way?
  2. The amount of parking is another problem that I think should be done another way. there should be a more fair way of distributing the stickers to people who lives farther away than others. What they should do is make more parking stalls to meet the demand of students needing them.
  3. Why do some professors make their exams cumulative when there is a lot to know? I think that it would be more beneficial to the student if they could study and learn the material in more detail than trying to study everything at once. I feel that the learning retention would be better if it was this way.
  4. Since they built the university in such a damp area, why can't they build more covered walkways so the students won't get wet?

My car mate has a problem with his course in engineering because he said that the course is getting harder. He is in his senior year now here in Manoa. He told me also that even though he works on it, he never finishs all his assignment because it was a very long assignment. He said that the only way to solve the problem is to stay at home mostly all the time, don't go anywhere on the weekend, and just do his homework. He said it is just like a person is asolated in one place and has no time for recreation.
