There's a wood burning stove that I can set my coffee mug on top of, ambient music is playing softly in the background, the aspen leaves are shivering outside but I'm warm and cozy, I'm feeling inspired by my deadline rather than panicked, and my cat is curled up on the sofa behind me (i am sitting on a throw pillow on a clean rug on the floor).]]> 2022-01-20 18:00:11 UTC https://padlet.com/annahfreudenburg55/xat0a5a6ioep5fyy/wish/2003495116 annahfreudenburg55 https://padlet.com/annahfreudenburg55/xat0a5a6ioep5fyy/wish/2003500772 I'm either at my fav coffee shop or hunched over on my futon or cross-legged on the floor at my coffee table. I started a draft early (maybe a week or two ago) but I haven't touched it in a while and now the deadline is bearing down and I'm sweating and I don't know if it's nerves or the fourth coffee kicking in but either way I'm kind of uncomfortable. The "lofi hip hop radio - beats to relax/study to" in the background helps a bit.]]> 2022-01-20 18:02:49 UTC https://padlet.com/annahfreudenburg55/xat0a5a6ioep5fyy/wish/2003500772 https://padlet.com/annahfreudenburg55/xat0a5a6ioep5fyy/wish/2003820306 I'm sitting at a desk by a fireplace in late afternoon in the winter. There's nice calming music playing in the back and my dogs are laying down quietly at my feet or nearby.]]> 2022-01-20 20:53:29 UTC https://padlet.com/annahfreudenburg55/xat0a5a6ioep5fyy/wish/2003820306 https://padlet.com/annahfreudenburg55/xat0a5a6ioep5fyy/wish/2003821100 In a cozy apartment in a busy city where I can hear the traffic from the streets. Ideally, I would have a strong flow of words, and all my ideas come out naturally. I would have lots of snacks to eat if I get any writer's block.]]> 2022-01-20 20:54:02 UTC https://padlet.com/annahfreudenburg55/xat0a5a6ioep5fyy/wish/2003821100 https://padlet.com/annahfreudenburg55/xat0a5a6ioep5fyy/wish/2003823804 I'm either sitting at my dorm desk or in the cadet lab in the armory building working off an old draft a few days/hours before the deadline. I usually stop 2/3 times to get food, or check my phone and I am usually worried about how my rushing will affect my grade. ]]> 2022-01-20 20:55:55 UTC https://padlet.com/annahfreudenburg55/xat0a5a6ioep5fyy/wish/2003823804 https://padlet.com/annahfreudenburg55/xat0a5a6ioep5fyy/wish/2003823876 In a nice comfy chair, next to a fireplace, at a cabin in the mountains. There is snow falling outside. I am all cuddled up in a blanket and drinking a frappuccino and eating a cake pop from Starbucks. I am also probably snacking on some skinny pop as well. In the background I can hear the crackling of the fireplace. I also have no other assignments due, and plenty of time to write this.]]> 2022-01-20 20:55:58 UTC https://padlet.com/annahfreudenburg55/xat0a5a6ioep5fyy/wish/2003823876 https://padlet.com/annahfreudenburg55/xat0a5a6ioep5fyy/wish/2003823881 I'm in my room or a house with a beach view with dim lights and a candle burning, classical music playing in the background. I started writing far before the deadline, so I have enough time to finish my writing. I'm sitting on my bed most likely against a wall with pillows and blankets surrounding me. I would also like to have Starbuck or a hot chocolate and a snack nearby. ]]> 2022-01-20 20:55:58 UTC https://padlet.com/annahfreudenburg55/xat0a5a6ioep5fyy/wish/2003823881 https://padlet.com/annahfreudenburg55/xat0a5a6ioep5fyy/wish/2003824104 I am in a small house tucked away in the Rockies (with a way to get back of course). I have finished my draft in the same day and I am now starting to revise it without being frustrated. There is soft quiet music (preferably classical music) playing too. I am writing until I feel like I need a break and then I can go outside to refresh / reset my mind. I also have water with me to drink. ]]> 2022-01-20 20:56:07 UTC https://padlet.com/annahfreudenburg55/xat0a5a6ioep5fyy/wish/2003824104 https://padlet.com/annahfreudenburg55/xat0a5a6ioep5fyy/wish/2003824137 Sitting in an old comfy armchair in front of a fireplace. It would be quiet and I'd also have a cup of tea with cookies.]]> 2022-01-20 20:56:09 UTC https://padlet.com/annahfreudenburg55/xat0a5a6ioep5fyy/wish/2003824137 https://padlet.com/annahfreudenburg55/xat0a5a6ioep5fyy/wish/2003824146 My ideal scenario is having silence and no distractions. Being completely calm and relaxed. Not worrying about the deadline. Being in a setting that is comfortable. ]]> 2022-01-20 20:56:10 UTC https://padlet.com/annahfreudenburg55/xat0a5a6ioep5fyy/wish/2003824146 https://padlet.com/annahfreudenburg55/xat0a5a6ioep5fyy/wish/2003825144 My ideal writing space is somewhere isolated but still connected to the outside world, such as an office in a high rise building where I am able to look down at the noisy area, while having my quiet space to myself. I get distracted often and my eyes strain a lot so having a scenic view right next to me would help me take regular breaks and stay more on task. Bonus points if it’s a cold and rainy or stormy day. ]]> 2022-01-20 20:56:56 UTC https://padlet.com/annahfreudenburg55/xat0a5a6ioep5fyy/wish/2003825144 https://padlet.com/annahfreudenburg55/xat0a5a6ioep5fyy/wish/2003825354 I imagine myself sitting lakeside amidst a relaxing vibe. I just made myself a cup of espresso and will take breaks from writing to enjoy the view and my coffee. I'm feeling super cozy and calm, allowing the ideas to flow freely in my mind.]]> 2022-01-20 20:57:07 UTC https://padlet.com/annahfreudenburg55/xat0a5a6ioep5fyy/wish/2003825354 https://padlet.com/annahfreudenburg55/xat0a5a6ioep5fyy/wish/2003825372 2022-01-20 20:57:09 UTC https://padlet.com/annahfreudenburg55/xat0a5a6ioep5fyy/wish/2003825372 https://padlet.com/annahfreudenburg55/xat0a5a6ioep5fyy/wish/2003827387 I'd be writing at my desk in my dorm. My chair would probably be messing up my back and I'd barely type anything in 30min.]]> 2022-01-20 20:58:38 UTC https://padlet.com/annahfreudenburg55/xat0a5a6ioep5fyy/wish/2003827387 https://padlet.com/annahfreudenburg55/xat0a5a6ioep5fyy/wish/2003827690 In my room with a cup of coffee because I would most likely be staying up late stuck on the last two paragraphs at which I will be considering getting food as a way to procrastinate even more. I would also be rereading my work and realizing it makes no sense at all.]]> 2022-01-20 20:58:53 UTC https://padlet.com/annahfreudenburg55/xat0a5a6ioep5fyy/wish/2003827690 https://padlet.com/annahfreudenburg55/xat0a5a6ioep5fyy/wish/2003827831 2022-01-20 20:58:59 UTC https://padlet.com/annahfreudenburg55/xat0a5a6ioep5fyy/wish/2003827831 https://padlet.com/annahfreudenburg55/xat0a5a6ioep5fyy/wish/2003827867 I am sitting in my uncomfy dorm chair. With bright lights shining down on me. I just got assigned this paper and have no motivation to start writing it, but am starting because I hate procrastinating on these kinds of things because I know it will stress me out in the future lol! There is either the voices of fellow students talking or my roommates tv in the background. This makes it very hard for me to write, since I need almost complete silence, or I will get distracted! I am probably also checking my phone periodically throughout this. My back has begun to hurt and I just want to go to bed lol!]]> 2022-01-20 20:59:01 UTC https://padlet.com/annahfreudenburg55/xat0a5a6ioep5fyy/wish/2003827867 https://padlet.com/annahfreudenburg55/xat0a5a6ioep5fyy/wish/2003827965 I'm mostly likely in my dorm typically when my roommate is at a class. I have procrastinated so I'm trying my best to finish the essay on time. Multiple breaks because I am easily distracted by things around me. I try to play study music but then most times I get annoyed and turn it off.]]> 2022-01-20 20:59:05 UTC https://padlet.com/annahfreudenburg55/xat0a5a6ioep5fyy/wish/2003827965 https://padlet.com/annahfreudenburg55/xat0a5a6ioep5fyy/wish/2003828908 I am either in the Library or a quiet corner that I found in a random lecture hall. I have a big bottle of water with a couple of snacks. I have my headphones playing classical music too. I write until I start to feel myself getting burnt out and I stop for however long I need. Usually I am on my phone or walking around. I also might be feeling rushed because I wrote my first draft like 1-2 weeks ago and now I have a week and a half to write a 6 page paper. What do I do? AHHHHHH]]> 2022-01-20 20:59:46 UTC https://padlet.com/annahfreudenburg55/xat0a5a6ioep5fyy/wish/2003828908 https://padlet.com/annahfreudenburg55/xat0a5a6ioep5fyy/wish/2003829552 I'm in my dorm, roommate usually in the room which is not completely peaceful. I switch around from my desk to my bed, depending on the day. I feel rushed and struggle to gather effective thoughts for my writing. I have a starbucks cup of coffee though but can also hear the noise in the lounge across my room.]]> 2022-01-20 21:00:16 UTC https://padlet.com/annahfreudenburg55/xat0a5a6ioep5fyy/wish/2003829552 https://padlet.com/annahfreudenburg55/xat0a5a6ioep5fyy/wish/2003829822 Usually, I worry about the deadline. Silence and distractions usually occur but not that often. I listen to music while writing. Usually, I write my essays at the UGL. I lose focus after a while when writing. ]]> 2022-01-20 21:00:26 UTC https://padlet.com/annahfreudenburg55/xat0a5a6ioep5fyy/wish/2003829822 https://padlet.com/annahfreudenburg55/xat0a5a6ioep5fyy/wish/2003830586 I would like to be in my room playing rod wave surrounded by snacks]]> 2022-01-20 21:01:02 UTC https://padlet.com/annahfreudenburg55/xat0a5a6ioep5fyy/wish/2003830586 https://padlet.com/annahfreudenburg55/xat0a5a6ioep5fyy/wish/2003831005 I usually will have a drink and some snacks by me to reduce the chances of me getting up and walking around aimlessly. Such drink would consist of coffee or a fruit refresher with a sandwich or granola bar. It’s evening sometime between 5-6 (reality it’s midnight and I’m fixating on false realities lol) when I start as I’m more of a nighttime person than morning . My fingers are constantly cracking along with my wrists from typing improperly. ]]> 2022-01-20 21:01:17 UTC https://padlet.com/annahfreudenburg55/xat0a5a6ioep5fyy/wish/2003831005 https://padlet.com/annahfreudenburg55/xat0a5a6ioep5fyy/wish/2003831824 I am usually in my Dorm room or in The fice building with my headphones in listening to music]]> 2022-01-20 21:01:53 UTC https://padlet.com/annahfreudenburg55/xat0a5a6ioep5fyy/wish/2003831824
