If you had to choose anywhere to be alone and get work done, where would it be? For me it’s my brothers old bedroom that converted to “my office” awhile back.

Trust me, it doesn’t look that clean and pristine anymore. There are more bookshelves, textbooks, binders, files..you get the idea. But what I wanted to share with you all is my favourite part of my office:

My post critical things to keep at hands reach are:

•The obvious stuff: pens, pencils, notebook, calculator
•Assignment, and class outline print-outs. Although I have a lot of technology (clearly you can tell from this picture), I still prefer the old fashioned print-out for a lot of things!
•Water and Food: This doesn’t really need explanation now does it?! One can’t concentrate on an empty stomach
•Music: I have a hard time listening to music if I am trying to read, however it is entirely necessary for when I am working on assignments and problem sets.
•Empty Kleenex Box Holder: I’ve posted about them before, they are so handy for keeping things in one spot
•Ipad/Cell phone: Definitely critical for a little bit of distraction

The Empty Kleenex Box Holders

I know that this week I will be spending a lot of time at my desk, so I’m off to get started!

What do you like to have at hands reach? What is your favourite place to get quiet time?
