where do you study?

I need a place that isn't TOO quiet. If I go to the school library, inevitably some group of freshmen will start chatting loudly thus having the whole place quiet except for this ONE group. I need a place where there is an even flow of noise so starbucks/coffeebean is good, public libraries are ok, and school restaurants/cafes are good too. Too quiet and I go crazy. At home is fine for really late night studying.
I have Mega Desk. Its located at home so I do most of my studying there.
Sometimes in the bathroom...

while you're on the pooper right? high five 👍 same here
I cannot stand the library.
I used to study in my living room with the TV muted, but that was before I added a second roommate that doesn't go to school. 👎
Now I'm forced to study in my room, which isn't all that effective. Sometimes I'll study in the lab if I'm on campus and the test is later that day.

I put on scrubs, sit outside of Harvard Med, and read Netter's so I can pick up mad honeys. 😎
hows that working out for you?

I study in a pineapple under the sea.
Actually, sometimes SpongeBob is on if I'm watching my nephew, and trying to study at the same time. Usually I just study in my house. If I'm just reading/re-reading I sit in my papasan, if I'm taking notes or using my laptop I sit at my desk or kitchen table.

Am i the only one who LOLed at this?! I can only picture going to the club and seeing some pre-med in the back reading their organic chemistry text book.

In my TV room with some good music playing. I hate studying in total quiet, it drives me nuts lol.

for me, it's the library.
Agreed. Library is the best. And no computer or iPhone otherwise I spend all day checking my e-mail 1000x (even though nobody has sent something new), or social networking.
I didn't study a whole lot, but when I did I usually did it over at my girlfriend's house. Yep, she was a gold-digger
Room. Late Night with no sound/distractions. It's difficult to read genetics, ochem, biochem, etc when your roommate is business major surfing and laughing at youtube for 10+ hours a day.
Library= bunch of freshman laughing/making noise.

Starbucks when it is mildly busy is wonderful for me... or the dorm
