My Favorite Places to Study

My top 5 study spaces

As many students do, I have a few places I really enjoying studying (a.k.a places I go with the intention of studying but never end up studying because procrastination is a real problem). Here are the top five.

1. Cafe / Coffee Shop

My absolute favorite place to study is in a cafe or coffee shop. I really dislike silence when I am studying; I need background noise to be able to focus. A cafe or coffee shop provides the perfect amount of background noise for me. It’s not silent, but I am not distracted by peoples’ conversations either. (Plus, there is always the option of getting something to drink or something to eat for a quick pick me up!)

2. Library

I feel lucky I have lots of libraries to choose from where I live because I also enjoy studying there. Something about being surrounded by books makes me want to be more studious.

3. Class

I am motivated by people around me all the time, so for me, studying in an environment full of students (like one of my classes) keeps me on task and focused. I often do this when my teacher finishes the lesson early, and we have extra time to do whatever we would like.

4. My House

My favorite part of studying at home is I can get a snack (or two, or three, or fifty, or an entire meal with soupand salad) any time I want. However, I always refrain from studying on my bed because there have been too many days where I wake up 30 minutes before school starts, disoriented on my bed, with none of my homework completed.

5. Outside

If the weather is nice, I love being outside to read/annotate something for one of my classes. I usually find a patch of grass to lie down on to read (but make sure there are no bugs).

If I have learned one thing in my lifetime, it is that friends are a privilege. No one is required to give you their company and yet there is some sort of shared connection that keeps you together. And from that friendship, you may even find yourself lucky enough to have a few more friends, thus forming a group. Here are just a few signs that prove your current friend group is the ultimate friend group.

When it comes to television, there’s very few sets of on-screen siblings that a lot of us can relate to. Only those who have grown up with siblings knows what it feels like to fight, prank, and love a sibling. Ross and Monica Geller were definitely overbearing and overshared some things through the series of "Friends," but they captured perfectly what real siblings feel in real life. Some of their antics were funny, some were a little weird but all of them are completely relatable to brothers and sisters everywhere.

College is a great place to meet people, especially through Greek life. If you look closely at sororities, you'll quickly see there are many different types of girls you will meet.

1. The Legacy.

Her sister was a member, her mom was a member, all of her aunts were members, and her grandma was a member. She has been waiting her whole life to wear these letters and cried hysterically on bid day. Although she can act entitled at times, you can bet she is one of the most enthusiastic sisters.

Every kid in college and/or high school dreams of summer the moment they walk through the door on the first day back in September. It becomes harder and harder to focus in classes and while doing assignments as the days get closer. The winter has been lagging, the days are short and dark, and no one is quite themselves due to lack of energy and sunlight. Let's face it: life is ten times better in the summertime.
