Study Seshhhh

A very wise person said to me, "I'd rather spend all Friday stressing over getting the work done for next week, than spend all week stressing over what's due next week."

With this in mind an all Friday study session was planed and set in place.

Today we left school around noon; books, computers, notebooks and papers in hand. Ready to spend a day together, focused and determined to finish all we had set forth.

We arrive at the local coffee shop, order our dirty chai lattes and begin to work.

Adele blasts through my eardrums, the motivation to finish my fifteen page paper relational communication paper and my forty page senior project paper growing stronger with every tap of a guitar string.

Hours pass...my small group of friends grows hungry.  So, we order lunch and a second round of coffee.

More time passes and more coffee is ordered...the motivation starts to fade as I flip on my recent favorite show: Dexter. I watch an episode and then return to my work. This same pattern continues for a few more hours.

The clock reads almost ten o'clock and the employees of the coffee shop are starting to look at our group a little funny, but I guess ten hours in the same place does have that effect.

The best part about the study session, besides the productivity is the...company.

Chai Tea Latte: $5.12
Breakfast Croissant: $5.89
Another Chai Tea Latte: $5.12
Cheese Danish: $1.75
Black House Coffee: $2.10
Ten uninterrupted hours with my friends: Priceless!

Peace and Love,
The gal in the red glasses
