Hey Everyone!
I just walked over to my study desk and had one of those moments where looking at it made me feel so happy. I just couldn't resist sharing a pic and seeing what you all think!
I love how the herbs smell in the morning (especially the mint) and the aloe vera plant just gives me these healthy vibes.
I would love to know how you all have your study desk set up.
Here it is! : )

Sweet dog picture! :)
I know each and every dog is sweet but she is incredibly sweet and super helpful.
Sweet dog picture! :)
Unfortunately I had to take the plants off my desk today. As I was watering them in the morning I saw that my basil was turning brown and I did a bit of research. Turns out I was being an overenthusiastic plant-parent and watering them twice a day. They only need watering once a week! Overwatering them can actually kill them. :disappointed:.
So here they are in the sun -off my desk and recovering. I pruned my basil out and hopefully the sun will dry out the water. Their sister has taken the task of guarding them while they are out of the house. (3 Hopefully, I can bring them back on my desk in the evening today.(/p)
@akikookmt881 I hope yours are doing better. (3(/p)
On a better note, I had planted a couple of tomato plants. One of them just produced their very first flower!!! I know the tomatoes are not LSAT related, but little things like these make me happy and I bet they have a good effect on LSAT. Hopefully, more will bloom soon! If not, I'll at least have one tomato very soon :joy:
I just retired my (EG-branded!) QCK+ in favor of my new XXL-sized mousepad, but I'm 100% on the SteelSeries mousepad bandwagon - that thing lasted me like five years before the fraying began.

Nice set up, Sami! I love the incorporation of natural life and herbs. Looks like a very pleasant place to prep! :)
Mine is a little ... boring. My apartment is so small that I'm just grateful I was able to fit the desk anywhere, even though it's not by a window lol

You're back! :]
I have a steelseries mousepad, too! Mine is about twice that size.
I am back :) haha
Dude, aren't they so tight! The one I had before lasted me since like middle school. This one I think I got last summer, and it's still going strong.
Do you game at all?
I used to game a ton. I must have over 15,000 hours in total spent on gaming. Games were my books. I'm a console player, though, so not much PC. You?

lol this made me smile. I have often been scared of drinking a wine glass and studying. I am such a lightweight that I can't imagine I would get any problems done. :joy:
@rahelaalam514 said:
It looks really good!!!! (3 I love that you have a fan there. I might add one since it can get pretty hot. Also, you reminded me that I should always have a water glass there. I keep forgetting to drink enough water! It's so important to stay hydrated.(/p)
Thank you! :) It's been getting warmer here and sooo stuffy - fans everywhere! That's one of 3 in my little studio lol. 3rd floor apartment might mean it's a sweaty summer. Hydration is indeed important - though often in the evening that's a wine glass instead of water haha.

Love it! I'm so jealous of all the people with a set up next to a window lol
Haha. Yeah. I moved the entire living room around so my desk could have the window. The desk is where I spend most of my time so I reasoned it should have the best place! :)

OMG!! I love the setup! (3 It's neat and has such a big personality! (3 (3(/p)
I feel our workspace should make us feel happy and dogs always make me happy (3(/p)
Thank you so much! I have a lot of decorations and I wasn't sure where to put half of them, haha, I might shift them around more later on. :D Doges always make me happy too!
I have a dog and I love her so much (3 (3. I instantly smiled when I saw the dog on your table :).(/p)
I was also thinking of purchasing vegetation like you, that seems like such a great idea to maintain a healthy and fresh atmosphere! Your view to the outside is so green too!
Haha yeah. The yard is a bit overgrown but I have decided to not cut it since there are so many colorful wildflowers growing right now and so many cute birds come to visit them (3 (3.(/p)

@ilikephilosophy993 and @akikookmt881 lol you two are so funny! :joy: Is this on Amazon? lol But would the plants arrive okay after shipping? After I posted this I realized what I should have done was grow 7 different sage plants! Just to match the theme. Hopefully, having 7 plants increases my chances of becoming a sage? :joy:
I've ordered some plants on Amazon in the past, but the first thing I had to do is to save them from dying. They were packed in bubble wraps and looked as if they were saying "heeelp....." So it really helped nurture a strange bond between the plants and me. lol
I know what you mean (3. It's like they become your babies. I am sorry they had to go through that shipping nightmare but at least they have got you now (3. I think they are very lucky. (3 :kissing_heart:(/p)
Thank you @rahelaalam514 for starting this thread. My desk is a little bit cleaner now.
lol Each student I have had so far has said that they were inspired by the post to clean their desk :joy: (3. I'll be honest, before the plants came my desk used to be super messy. But since they have been here, I take extra pride in maintaining a clean desk. Plus, since I need to water them in the morning and evening, it forces me to clean the desk so water doesn't fall on the papers.(/p)

How come everyone's desk looks so gooooood!?

Not the best photo and pardon the stacks of things around my desk, I just moved to a new apartment recently haha. Used to share a 2 bedroom townhouse with a roommate and now flying solo in a studio, so still playing tetris to figure out how to store everything. But luckily, it's big enough that I still had room for a desk. I don't love staring at a wall like this but at least there's a big window to the left so it's not as claustrophobic haha.

Thanks! It can be distracting sometimes, but the sunlight is always something to appreciate. :3

Cleaned my desk recently and removed my main PC off it so I can fully concentrate and not be distracted! I haven't felt this productive in ages.

I have been to NY and with the space that's available in an apartment this looks amazing! I love being neat. Your desk looks like the kind of desk I would be happy to use during prep :smiley:
Also, welcome back!
aww Thanks Sami (3(/p)
Yeah you have seen first hand how small NYC apartments can be. Mine isn't the worst space wise, but it's still pretty small haha. If you come to NY for LS, you will get used to it :grimace:

Wow your desk is so clean. I thought this picture was from the IKEA website...!
Thank you :) I can't work with stuff all over, so I try to keep it all organized. I do have stacks of tests, books, and other misc. LSAT printouts that are much less neat in boxes in my bedroom though.
