The Ideal Study Environment

These are three circumstances in which I study. The first is my ideal study session. The second is not so ideal but decently fun. And the last just makes me straight up angry and annoyed.

1) The best circumstances for me to study is when I study with one other person. That person has to be right next to me and he/she cannot say ANYTHING at all. Not to me or to anybody. He/She should have her phone off and be intently studying. I repeat studying. Not facebooking or checking her e-mail or reading blogs. He/she should be studying intensely and not say anything until I say something to her. But don't worry, I don't say anything unless it's "I'm done. Peace out." or "I'm effing tired. I can't do this anymore. I'm leaving."

2) This kind of sucks and is ineffective. When I study I alone in front of a computer, I am tempted to watch Youtube all day or play games or chat with people or watch a movie. It's really hard to concentrate on my work. For instance, instead of studying, I would be writing on my blog about the ideal study session I would like. sigh. i should be studying now Anywho, When I study alone, for every 8 hours I sit down, I study for roughly an hour, give or take. Kind of unproductive.

3) The worst case scenario for me when I study, is when I'm with a bunch of people, who either don't freaking study, or are able to freaking study and talk at the same time. I would be trying to study and I hear light giggles or great guffaws. Right when I hear a hint of happiness in the same room that I'm studying in, I get furious and annoyed. I just want to leave everybody, call up another friend who follows all the criteria for Study Environment #1 and study with them. However I can't, because apparently it's bad manners to leave your friends when they come to your school to study. I don't know who made up this bs rule but I sersly want kick that person in the mouth so he wouldn't say anything stupid again.

Basically, I love studying with BIOLA folk, and I hate studying with CPC folk. I'm not gonna hide it with false apologies or nothing.

Lastly, I don't like studying by myself much either, but I can't blame anybody for that so...it sucks. Now, I have to go back to studying. Jeez, I just wasted a good 20 minutes on this post. I'm gonna go write my paper now. Sigh.
