    Thumbs up


    So lately I have found sitting at Starbucks in Barnes n Noble has been a great place to study. The atmosphere, people, action, and location are great, but I looking for a new place.
    A place where I can go study, then hang out, and maybe venture around the location to find other places to hang?
    What has worked for yall?

    Hey dude, welcome to S-B! You may want edit your post and click the thing that says "close all tags." You've left yourself a little open there.

    As for study places, most coffee shops are pretty good. I prefer independent establishments as opposed to those mega-chains, 'cause I like to support local shops like that. Plus, book stores are pretty big, and there's usually alot going on. I like to study in smaller environments.
    THINK...then post.

    Everything is Totally Manageable.

    Public libraries.
    Small cafes.
    University libraries (the one you go to, if you go to one).
    Internet cafes if you live in a city.

    I find studying in an outside park when its nice out is good, gets you away from flourescent lighting
    I love all the things that we should fear, and Im not afraid of being here....

    Take your records, take your freedom, take your memories I dont need 'em

    My desk, while chatting on MSN, this counts fro double while doing assignments. I need human interaction to stay sane.

    Sitting up in bed is also good.

    Im the same way.

    They just did a multi-million dollar renovation to the Business School and you can go in a get a key from the desk that lets you into these little private rooms. Inside each mini-room they have a whiteboard, a TV, and a place to hook up your laptop to the internet. Its probably one of the best places Ive ever found to study.

    I have to agree with LittleBit, I love to study outside. Usually I study in the gardens in the city when I have a break, it is good to get away from desks and lights etc. for a change.

    My room. I can&#39;t have any human interaction, or it just doesn&#39;t work for some reason. I can&#39;t be stoned when I start work either, once I&#39;ve actually gotten into it, it&#39;s fine to smoke, but if I&#39;m stoned and I try to start, it just doesn&#39;t happen.

    I study our on my balcony...I have a chair and a table set up just for it. That way i am outside, and alone at the same time. Somtimes I will go lay out at the pool.

    gay bars are the best place for you to study
    <span style="color:#2E8B57">sleep never comes quick enough to protect us
    there is no shelter in the present from the ghosts of the past
    like well driven nails
    memories dig their claws in our backs
    revealing our black hearts
    unable to forgive ourselves
    our parched mouths pray for rain
    and only the clouds bear witness as we wither away</span>

    How can you people study in all these public places? Too much noise/distraction. I can only study properly in my room at my desk.

    Sometimes human interaction can work, but only if you both do the same subject. Otherwise, it&#39;s never gonna happen. To be honest, I don&#39;t &#39;study&#39; all that much, but when I do I end up doing massive chunks all in one go. I guess that&#39;s comething I want to work on when I start Year 2 of uni, get myself into a proper studying routine.

    Wouldn&#39;t it be so nice? To live in a world, where everythings exactly how it seems? But we live in a world, where bastards come along and piss on your dreams. The dreams that make you happy, the dreams that make you smile, get off your ass, vengeance is back in style.
