After spending hours and hours at the Morris Library each week, many UD students find themselves in need of a little change of scenery. Luckily for them, there are countless spots around campus that prove to be a very refreshing place to study in place of the library. Here are some of the best study spots at the University of Delaware when you just cannot spend another second in Club Morris.

1. Central Perk.


Hands down, Central Perk is my all time favorite study spot at UD. The atmosphere of this place is so positive and relaxing. From the various types of sandwiches (Their "Avo on Focaccia" is a must-try), to the delicious smoothies, to the fire study playlist played throughout the cafe, there is no better place to study for your exams. If you haven't studied in Central Perk before, I highly suggest giving it a try.

2. The Chapel.

This popular study spot is located on the upper level of Trabant. The Chapel is a great place to get work done if you prefer to study in a more elegant atmosphere, with natural light radiating in from the large, stained glass windows. What's even better is that if you notice yourself getting a little hungry, you are seconds away from the Trabant food court, that has numerous food options, ranging from Chick-Fil-A all the way to a custom salad station. If you need complete silence and just can't do the library today, the Chapel is the best place for you.

3. ISE Lab.

The ISE lab is composed of floors and floors of different kinds of study spots available to UD students. The lobby area is a great place to study in groups and with your classmates. It even has an Einstein Bagels, which comes in very handy when you need another coffee or something to eat. The upper floors are great if you need a more quiet place to get your work done. If you get a seat near a window, you get a beautiful view of east campus. The modern atmosphere of the ISE lab keeps every on task and focused on their studies.

4. Perkins.

Perkins is a great place to study and get work done, both on your own or if you need to collaborate with others. There are numerous places to get food to satisfy that mid-study hunger, a favorite of mine is the sandwich shack, that makes fresh customized sandwiches and wraps. Perkins also has a Dunkin Donuts, which comes in very handy when you need that coffee to keep yourself going.

5. The Green.

There is no better way to study than lounging out on the Green on a beautiful, Spring day. It's always nice to get a little fresh air when you are studying instead of being trapped inside of a small cubicle in the library. When the weather starts getting nicer, the green is packed with students getting their work done.

New year, new semester, not the same old thing. This semester will be a semester to redeem all the mistakes made in the previous five months.

1. I will wake up (sorta) on time for class.

Let's face it, last semester you woke up with enough time to brush your teeth and get to class and even then you were about 10 minutes late and rollin' in with some pretty unfortunate bed head. This semester we will set our alarms, wake up with time to get ready, and get to class on time!

And so it begins.

1. Walk in motivated and ready to rock

Camping out at the library is not for the faint of heart. You need to go in as a warrior. You usually have brought supplies (laptop, chargers, and textbooks) and sustenance (water, snacks, and blanket/sweatpants) since the battle will be for an undetermined length of time. Perhaps it is one assignment or perhaps it's four. You are motivated and prepared; you don’t doubt the assignment(s) will take time, but you know it couldn’t be that long.

December... it's full of finals, due dates, Mariah Carey, and the holidays. It's the worst time of the year, but the best because after finals, you get to not think about classes for a month and catch up on all the sleep you lost throughout the semester. But what's worse than finals week is the last week of classes, when all the due dates you've put off can no longer be put off anymore.

Thanksgiving break is over and Christmas is just around the corner and that means, for most college students, one hellish thing — finals week. It's the one time of year in which the library becomes over populated and mental breakdowns are most frequent. There is no way to avoid it or a cure for the pain that it brings. All we can do is hunker down with our books, order some Dominos, and pray that it will all be over soon. Luckily, we are not alone in this suffering. To prove it, here are just a few of the many deranged thoughts that go through a college student's mind during finals week.

I know every college student has daily thoughts throughout their day. Whether you're walking on campus or attending class, we always have thoughts running a mile a minute through our heads. We may be wondering why we even showed up to class because we'd rather be sleeping, or when the professor announces that we have a test and you have an immediate panic attack.
