I live in a library. ._.;; Nah, but I kinda go to every library, it depends on where I'm heading after studying.

I dont think I've ever set foot in a library for study - I found I was at my best at home. I know this may sound like a stupid question, but what is the appeal of studying at a library anyway (I never got it)?

it's so bothersome though, having to lug around all your materials. home is the best, surrounded by food and all that :D

I personally can't concentrate at home because of the amount of noise. FB is distracting, but I don't want to deactivate it -I can't : (
As for appeal, I love seeing other people like me studying -coughs- majority, some just play games -no names-. No distractions, well disregarding my phone but I turn that off and I make set goals that before I leave the place I need to get a certain amount of work done. But I guess it depends on the person.

+1! I don't get why people go to libraries (I can understand it if you have younger, noisy siblings at home though).

Libraries dont have the persisting temptation of computers and consoles which promote procrastination.

Stupidest argument ever. If you don't want to play your PS3 because it distracts you from your study, don't play your PS3. Simple as that. If you find yourself getting distracted by consoles it means you don't want good results as much as you think you do.

Yes, the truth is brutal. I did my HSC with consoles, PCs, projectors, seedboxes, and a home theater within my reach. I just didn't touch them when it was study time.

The amount of annoying little year 12s in uni libraries is too damn high!

This has to be one of the best posts I have seen in a while. A little self-discipline will take you a long way in life.

Yes indeed :) I know self-discipline is harder for some than for others, doesn't mean you should just give up on it and blame the lack of it on your distractions.
