Top 5 Study Spots In LA

Each weekend, when we have gotten tired from studying on campus and want to try something new, my friends and I start to look for cafés around downtown to spend the day in, with good coffee and a good view being our top two criteria. There is an abundance of trendy cafés to visit in Los Angeles, and I have rounded up a few of my favorites.

1. Urth Caffé

Of course this is one of the most touristy food places in Los Angeles, and definitely a little bit overpriced, but studying here is worth it when you run into the occasional celebrity.

2. Bird’s Nest Cafe

Conveniently located only a few minutes away from USC, Bird's Nest offers aesthetically pleasing and great-tasting food for breakfast, lunch, and dinner.

3. Loit Café

This coffee shop is fairly new, located in downtown LA. Charcoal drinks are their signature, and the large shop offers an abundance of seats, so you don't have to worry about crowding, like at most cafes.

4. TeaShot

Not only do they have interesting flavors, like blueberry lemonade tea and their signature coffee shot inside a cookie cup, but the small shop is also hidden in Little Tokyo. The location makes for the perfect study spot, with the lack of bustle, the ambient lights, and the vibrant art.


5. Starbucks

A true favorite; you can find one pretty much at every corner. The atmospheric music and the classic coffee flavors create the perfect studying vibe.

Today I started my third week of college at Minnesota State Moorhead. I have survived welcome week, finding my classes on the first day, and being an awkward loner in the dining hall. Even though I have yet to be here for a month, I have already experienced many thoughts and problems that only a new college student can relate to.

"Make sure to get involved when you're in college!"

We've all heard some variation of this phrase, whether it came from parents, other family members, friends, RAs, or college-related articles. And, like many clichés, it's true for the most part. Getting involved during your college years can help you make friends, build your resume, and feel connected to your campus. However, these commitments can get stressful if you're dealing with personal issues, need to work, or aren't sure how to balance classes and everything else going on during the semester.

In college, one of the essential things to have is friends. Yes, textbooks, a laptop, and other school supplies are important but friends are essential. Friends are that support system everybody needs. The more friends you have the better the support system you have. But you also have someone to share experiences with. And don’t settle for just one or two friends because 8 out of 10 times they are busy and you are studying all alone. Or they have other friend groups that do not include you. Don’t settle for just one or two friends; make as many friends as you can. After the first couple of weeks of college, most friend groups are set and you may be without friends.

For a moment your world is spinning. The phone alarm has just scared you awake and you’re flooded by daunting thoughts of the day ahead. You have three assignments due and little time to work on them because of your job. You’re running late because you’ve hit snooze one to many times after yesterday’s long hours. You dizzily reach for a hoodie, craving its comfort, and rush for a speedy exit, praying you will have time to pick up coffee. Does this sound familiar?

Finals week is upon us. It is a magical time of year during which college students everywhere flock to the library in attempt to learn a semester's worth of knowledge in only a week.
