When you’re in school, there’s often not a lot of time to think about anything but your studies. However, it’s not healthy to spend all of your time working. Your creative efforts in school will actually be better if you’re able to get away from the classroom and do some non-school things once in awhile. To do this without taking too much time away from your academics, you should look for interesting attractions near your school.

For example, students who attend Brooks Institute in Santa Barbara could take the time to see some of the following attractions:

• Santa Barbara Museum of Art. You can always say that you’re "studying" when you take a break to see the exhibits here.
• The Mission. This old church is a place of historic religious and cultural importance in the area.
• The Waterfront. The wharf, a museum and the water itself are a few of the reasons this place makes for a nice getaway from the school grind.
• Santa Barbara Zoo. Sometimes we just need to get away from people and spend time amongst other creatures.
• Botanic Gardens. Sometimes even animals are too much noise; get away to the gardens for a real breather from life.

It’s not just Brooks’ students that have attractions near their school. From IADT Sacramento to Gibbs College Virginia, every school across the nation has something to see near it. Find the interesting things near you and take the breaks that you need to keep your mind fresh!
