..................There are two places that are becoming my second home, while I have to work hard on my thesis. The first one is Thammasat University library, the other is Silpakorn University library. Although, I like both places, I always compare them to each other because I feel that they are similar and different in some ways.
.................There are many resemble things that you will find no matter it is TU library or SU library you are in. First, there are many varieties of books which you can easily find the one you want by using data base searching. Moreover, you can borrow any of them for free. Second, there are wide writing tables for you to read, absorb in books. I sometimes just sit and take a nap. Third, thare is a computer room for you to use a computer in working or surf an internet. The similarities above are the reasons why I choose to spend my time in these two places.
.................However, there are some significant differences between these libraries. For example, TU library is bigger; it has 3 floors while SU library has only 2 floors. TU library provide us with facilities that SU library does not, such as toilets in the library. Last but not least, whenever you walk in TU library, you will find that this library is a huge complete silence place. You can obviously hear the people footsteps, the sound from people who are turning over their books page by page, and the sound from a librarian's trolley. On the other hand, you will hear people chatting, laughing and shouthing in SU library. Sometime, I think this library is like a small air-conditioned canteen. In other words, SU library is very bubbly library on eath while the TU library is the tranquil one.
.................For me, if both libraries were my house, their differences would make them become a different room. TU library would be like my private room where I could be alone. SU library would be like my living room where I could spend my time with my friends, chatting and sharing ideas. Together they become as if another home of mine
