I typically prefer silence when I am trying to do work or study, however, sometimes that is not possible. If someone is cooking dinner, doing their lawn, or a kid is screaming outside I often find it difficult to focus. Freshman year, living in the dorms, I had to learn how to study and deal with all of the noise. When this happened, I would put on concentration or study music that I found off of YouTube to drown out all of the other miscellaneous noises. My friends would often refer to it as “spa music.” I decided to look at SoundCloud for any tracks that could make studying a little easier and came across one that is calm enough where I don’t get distracted, but still blocks out the outside noise.
