WEEKEND PLAYLIST #1

"Hello long weekend! Looking forward to a sunny one ahead! ":
It eases me to see life through the melodies (I'm not such a lyric person) of John Mayer, Ed Sheeran, and Tulus. Mayer's songs mostly sound as if you've been through the underground and now you're starting to see the peek of light from the ground level. Ed Sheeran's give a spice and laughter through all the bads (and goods) in life. Whilst Tulus' give a room for yourself; to contemplate everything you want and need to think/rethink about.

Clarity - John Mayer
I'm Not In Love - Diana Krall
Tukar Jiwa - Tulus
Salamku Untuk Kekasihmu Yang Baru - RAN
Our Day Will Come - Jamie Cullum
No Such Thing - John Mayer
On A String - Mama's Gun
Not Myself - John Mayer
High and Dry - Jamie Cullum
Stop This Train - John Mayer
Cahaya - Tulus

the working space

The air conditioner is set for 20oC
It's bright outside and the glimpse of light rays through the peek of window
The fluorescent light of the room is turned off, so it's dim
but this is not the scary kind of dim you'd have at night
It's rather.... warm and cozy
the cool breeze from the air con keeps you from the hot weather outside
your laptop is place upon a pillow, seated on your lap
the mini speaker is playing random songs you like from Spotify
and all the sounds there is,
the air conditioner breeze, the random songs in medium-low volume, the clicking sound from typing,
create a memory in your subconscious about an effective study space that works for you.

This is just one model of study space I cotton to
I am expanding for new models to be planted in my subconscious
[it is definitely never gonna be Starbucks for it is crowded, noisy,
and the seating is awful -quicksand sofas or tiny chairs with low tables you need to bend to type or read something- also it is quite intimidating for some reason, which I haven't discovered yet.
it is also never going to be a friend's house. You don't study at a friend's house. If you do it'll be like... 30 minutes -divided to a few small windows of study duration- and the rest of the hours will be spent, of course, talking -nothing related to the subject, but more of applied theories IRL]
