My Top 4 Places to Study and Relax

-
College can be stressful at times and finding the perfect places to unwind and relax is a great way to help deal with that stress. There's always lots of studying to do, too, so finding a great spot for this is key! Here are my top 4 places to study and relax:

On campus, my favorite study spot is Marx Library. If I'm with my study group, I love going to the Learning Commons area to do some group work. It's also right next to one of my favorite spots on campus... Starbucks! Marx is great for grabbing a cup of caffeine and getting started on some studying and homework!

Off campus, I really enjoy studying AND relaxing at two of my favorite local coffee shops, Satori and Carpe Diem. Both serve really good coffee, teas, and food. They have a great atmosphere for relaxing and talking with friends or studying in a different spot. I love the good coffee, vibes and   people that come with these two places.

Lastly, I love to relax through exercise. The Rec is perfect for that! I love going to the Rec, whether it just be to workout on my own or for group fitness classes. Exercising definitely helps me de-stress when I have had one of those days. Plus, it's just a short walk from my dorm room! :)


Although these are my favorite places to relax and study, I would definitely encourage any incoming college student to find where they enjoy studying and relaxing most. It's super awesome to have a place where you enjoy for doing school work and unwinding!

What College Has Taught Me Beyond the Classroom

As a senior in high school, a lot of people told me that college is a "growing" experience and that I would change while away at school. I never really understood how I would grow or change so much until I got to South and started my college experience. Starting in fall 2018, I have only been here at USA for a little over a semester. However, it really seems longer than that considering how much I have learned, both inside and outside the classroom.       In my first year, one of the major aspects of college I have learned a lot about is independence. Being on my own (for the most part) has taught me what I need to work on and what I'm good at when it comes to making time for everything. Time management is something I thought was pretty straightforward and simple. However, I've learned it is actually a skill that you have to practice to be good at (and I'm still working on it :) ).      College has also taught me that it's okay to not have ...

It's Spring in Mobile!

      It's springtime here in Mobile! As the end of the semester draws near, it always cheers me up to walk outside into some nice, spring weather. It's even better that there are plenty of places to have fun in the sun near South's campus! There are many beaches not too far from and some pretty parks and outdoor spaces near USA.       One of my favorite places is Langan Park. It is super close to campus and is perfect for biking, eno-ing, jogging, picnic-ing, and more! I like to go here with friends to take my mind off of school and stress and to focus on enjoying Mobile's nice weather and outdoor space in the spring.  Even if you have to do some school work, it is an awesome space to get some fresh air and experience springtime while doing so. I think that it is a great place to relax and unwind as spring semester begins to come to a close. Happy Spring!!
