Let’s be honest…no one remembers how to do this in person school thing. For me, it’s been very hard to zero in at my desk and focus on homework after a summer of rest and relaxation. Luckily, I think I might have the fix for anyone else experiencing this problematic situation…chill music to study and do work to! Whether you’re in your dorm, living in an off-campus apartment or in Wooster Hall trying to find peace and solitude through your headphones, a perfect writing playlist is a necessity.
I like to listen to a lot of folk music when I study, specifically something with a nice strumming guitar. I also enjoy playing instrumentals and tracks in a different language, so I don’t get distracted by wanting to sing along! These songs are a balance of all of those sounds, so I hope you enjoy them! Make sure to remember that you don’t have to study to these songs; it’s okay if you just need some chill new music to listen to.
