A "Latte" Studying

I have never been one to study. Nope. I cringe at the thought of sitting with a book in my lap for hours, re-reading content over and over. My major, Elementary Education, is not one to have very many tests throughout the semester. But oh boy, when finals come around, we have tests. Since we only have tests during finals, I am not use to studying. Therefore, I don't want to study.


Sure, I've tried sitting in bed, no tv/music/computer, but somehow I end up diagnosing myself with ADHD. I've tried sitting at the library, but end up people watching (something I love to do and consider myself good at). Today, I decided to switch things up and head to Caribou. The main reason being I had a gift card and didn't want to go to the library. I was there for 4 hours. It was perfect, if you can even associate that word with studying? I had a nice mixture of people watching/studying/drinking my latte/and taking the ocassional phone break to check facebook, email, and twitter. Why I have never studied at a coffee shop I have no clue. It was cozy, quiet, and warm. If only I wouldn't have realized this "study secret" my last semester of college....
