A university's library is like a miniature version of a campus itself, putting all kinds of people right next to each other. This leads to hilarious encounters, as well as terrible annoying experiences. If you've been in your university's library, I'm sure you've run into these people.
1. The sleeping beauty
These are the zombies of the library, they are sleep deprived and looking for somewhere to rest, what better place than a nice comfy library? They're the worst when you can't find a spot to study and they're just lying there, like "Do I wake you up? Are you dead?"
2. The couple
These people are joined at the hip; they sit next to each other, often on the same desk, and are constantly giggling and kissing. Worse yet is the more extreme version of the couple, the one who walk in discreetly looking for a spot to make out.
3. The awkward freshman
These people walk into the library and respect all the rules, then sit at a desk alone and contemplate life. You're a good person, you're friendly, but you can't approach them purely because of how awkward the whole situation is. The worst thing to ever happen to anyone is to get stared at by them, or even having them smile at you, what do you do then? It's all too weird tbh.
4. The one with a secret
These people think that no one knows, they think they're so subtle, but really, we all know. They're sitting at a table, staring at a book even, but we can all hear the really really loud music they're blasting through their earphones.
5. The loud eater
A library is supposed to be a place of peace and quiet, a place of silence. These people aren't exactly breaking the silence on purpose, but they're chewing so damn loudly you can't focus on what you're reading. How can they be such loud chewers? Bonus tip: Do not eat chips in the library, it's pretty obvious!
6. The one laughing by themselves
Everybody's staring, everybody seems is shocked by their behavior, but they don't care. These people live their lives the way they want, and if they feel like disturbing the entire library with their loud laughter at whatever they're doing on their phones, well, no one can stop them. Honestly, you're kind of jealous of them, you've never been even half as carefree or happy as they seem to be all the time..
7. The reserver
The library is pretty straight forward with how it works, but these people don't know about that, or purposefully ignore the rules, and put 20 jackets and 500 books on an empty desk, reserving it for their friend. If you talk to them about it, they'll make you believe that you're the one being rude. But honestly, you already had to motivate yourself for hours to actually go to the library and study, you have no problem fighting them.
8. The gossip
These people are trying to reenact an episode from "Sex and the City," but on the desk next to yours in the library. They come with a group and they all huddle around gossiping about every single person they know, and you have to put your head down and bear through it because you're "civil." You just want to scream at them "GO TO THE CAFETERIA" but they don't seem to know that that is an option, and instead stay in the library ruining it for everyone.
9. The one actually studying
These are the poor unfortunate souls at the library, sitting alone, wondering how they ended up here. God be with them.
