" When the paper assignments start rolling in, midterms hit and the load of reading you&amp;#039;ve been putting off just has to be done, you&amp;#039;ll be forced into the library for hours on end. Bringing snacks will help keep you focused, and give you one less reason to take another break. But when it comes to packing a brownbag for the library, there are a couple of important things you should remember: Quiet wrappers. This means no plastic, which rules out a lot of prepackaged snacks. Buy in bulk (it&amp;#039;s cheaper anyway) and self portion into Ziploc Baggies - you can sneak out your snack and no one will hear a thing. Soft and Chewy. The crunchy snacks may be tasty, but you are also going to annoy everyone around you with your munching. And since you technically shouldn&amp;#039;t be eating in the library anyway, you probably shouldn&amp;#039;t draw attention to yourself. Protein packed. Sugary snacks will give you energy for about 30 minutes and then drop you like it&amp;#039;s hot. Snacks high in protein (think cheese, nuts) will sustain your blood sugar level for an extended time to help keep you focused and productive. Drinks with a secure lid. The last thing you need is to drop it, knock it over or put it in your bag and have it leak all over the place. Save yourself the hassle and bring juice or water with a sealable lid.
