Apparently it's quite beneficial to study with some classical music in the background. The tempo/rhythm of the music helps your brain go into the "alpha" state, making it easier to understand info. Well... according to my dad anyway. :) I like listening to the radio too, but I find it really...

maybe. i guess i would end up lending her a book, providing that she has a trustworthy reputation... plus, you may end up with a new friend! :D i would be more happy to lend a book to her if she was a good friend of mine's... would be easier to get it back in that case.
