8 Thoughts That Go Through Your Head In The Library

We've all had these thoughts go through our head, admit it.

We've all been there. You're trying to study or get an assignment done in the library, but the people around you have another idea in mind. You go to the library with every intention of being a good student and getting all of your work done, but people end up distracting you, or you end up distracting yourself. Either way, you usually don't get done all that you planned on getting done. Here are the eight thoughts that go through your head while you're in the library:

1. Can this person stop talking?

I get that this isn't the "quiet" section of the library, but can you please lower your voice? Or worse, someone decides to FaceTime or make a phone call while they are in the library. I mean, really?

2. Okay, I'm going to take a short break.

We've all done it. We get what seems like enough done and we reward ourselves with a short break, whether it be YouTube or online shopping we've all been guilty.

3. Can we condense this study group?

There's always that one group that starts off quite and small and it eventually grows in size and in loudness. It's usually a group of people all studying for the same test. Chances are, 9 out of 10 times they're not really studying for the test.

4. I need food.

There's no better way to procrastinate and take a break than with a quick snack.

5. Maybe I'll leave a little earlier than I planned.

It happens to the best of us. You planned to stay there for hours, but you start to get bored and less motivated. It's okay to want to stop, you've made it this far.

6. Why do people come to the library and not do any work?

No but seriously, if we want to talk about what you did over the weekend, or the latest event to happen in your life, why don'y you hang out in each other's rooms or something, not the library?

7. Okay if I concentrate for one more hour I can get this entire assignment done.

We've all made goals for ourselves. "Just 30 more minutes and then I'll leave." "Let me finish this paragraph and then I can go." It's always good to set goals for yourself, even if it takes a while.

8. Wow. I am such a good student.

You always feel better about yourself after going to the library. Even if you didn't do all that you wanted to, you probably got more done than you would've in your room, so good for you!

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

Ah, yes, good old Hauppauge. We are that town in the dead center of Long Island that barely anyone knows how to pronounce unless they're from the town itself or live in a nearby area. Hauppauge is home to people of all kinds. We always have new families joining the community but honestly, the majority of the town is filled with people who never leave (high school alumni) and elders who have raised their kids here. Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.
