Study HabitAt

All through my academic years, when mugging for exams, more often than not you will moi burying my nose in my books/lecture notes within the comfort of my own room.

Very rarely, will you see me plugged into my mp3 with a cuppa beside me at the fastfood place/cafes/library. I can't concentrate with music blarring into my ears while trying to memorise definitions and understanding concepts.

In fact, I do not exactly love the library when i am prepping for a paper. The extreme silence (even clearing of throat/unzipping of bags sound like a noise hazard) gets on my nerves such that I feel extremly uncomfortable. I can't even whisper properly to my study mate and having resort to scribbling messages to her on paper -_-III

It has also been quite a while since graduation, I took to the library to settle down for casual reading/research/study.

Was at the Bishan community library to work on a research for a proj and though I skipped doing it on the levels reserved for silent studying, I opted for the cafe on the ground floor. The small cafe, mayb with a capacity of 10 tables max, had a mix crowd of families/teens/young adults.  The noise level was comfortable (with the kids going higher a pitch at times but still bearable) and there was NO hush hush to death silence. I felt very much at home with a warm cuppa of mocha latte and my lappie as I typed away.

Shiok and very conducive.
