I've been running around for the past 5 hours trying to find a place to study on this campus minus the time I spent printing my notes and walking
This one place is packed... and it requires a reservation for a spot. My ID obviously does not work for some reason... so someone ends up kicking me off the damn desk
I was at the business school lounge trying to read some stuff until they closed
then the central library is always packed with rarely any space plus I don't like the layout of the tables (I need my own desk with dividers where I can't see anyone walk by or across, or whatever)
then I tried a few other places but I'm back at the central library... using the computer.. and this computer automatically shuts off when this place closes... which is in 10 minutes.

Why isn;t there a place that's open 24 hours other than that tiny room which requires my ID to reserve a seat :(

I can't study in my room.. I end up falling asleep

I'll end up failing both of these finals like the one I took monday, and I thought this semester my grades would improve by getting my act together :roll:.

Some ideas:

- Coffee shop
- Meet with study partners from your class at their place (or your place)
- Random empty classroom.
- Talk to one of your profs and have them let you into a classroom to study. Or maybe they have a department study area you can use.
- Call your Advisor and ask them for ideas.

I think it's because there are too many distractions in your room - computer, tv, roommates, etc... LEARN SOME SELF CONTROL PEOPLE! :D

well the computer automatically turned off like I mentioned in the original post while browsing ATOT

mine turned off first so I looked to the person next to me who had a long email written out.... I was silently waiting for his to turn off to see what his reaction would be.... and it turned off 5 seconds after mine. The reaction was priceless
Am I a bad person? :(
