Where did you park when you studied at Georgia Tech?

Gotta make choices in life. that reminds me of another post from awhile back …where this guy’s girlfriend left him because he didnt give her "enough time "
If you’re going after hours, the lots are free on certain parking zones. Or else you can just pay the meter at $1 per hour, no biggie.
No more fun places? ;(
Conference room at work for me…even though i get tease everyday for bein the only analyst with a CFA
yeah the one at 81st/2nd is great… IF you can find a spot
At work. It’s always cold in my office so it keeps me alert.
I typically study at the vancouver public library, as they are open till 11pm every weekday except for friday. I have to tell you though, by the time the exam came up those acne scared language students were looking pretty good.
Hey guys, I thought I was weird for studying Level 1 in a Starbucks near my house, but apparently i’m not the only one. I did probably 70% of my Level 1 studying in starbucks. I had an easier time focusing there then at home, and if your sitting there refills on coffee is less than a dollar a pop. I will do the same for a lot of my level 2 studying.
I study at my work during lunch, in my bedroom, and at the university library.
I study in my room where I feel comfortable. I don’t consider it studying per se but just a big part of my life and professional interest. the only time I had to study outside of my comfort zone (library, coffee shops etc.) was when I didn’t want to study.
I have tried a few starbux on the UWS, but they are usually packed. The B&N on 66/bway looks like grand central…any of you have any rec’s for the UWS (going to the UES can be a big of a pain)

^I feel the same way. It’s sometimes awkward because we’ll both pretend as if we didn’t notice…
