I used to smoke dope just to get through days at school. I never brought books home after freshman year, let alone do homework.
When I was in college, I would usually listen to NPR (nothing important on the broadcast, though) and sit on the couch to do homework. Usually with a cup of coffee.
Writing papers was always done at the PC with some ambient music.

lol, Wastefield State.
This is gonna sound elaborate, but I just need space. Open space. If I can sprawl my stuff around and lay down on the floor and go to town, I'm usually fine. I can't do work at a desk, and I need background noise. Like a TV, preferably with something on I've seen before, this way I'm not compelled to watch it, just so that it's not silent in wherever I am.
Honestly my preferred position is laying on my stomach, laptop in front of me, with no one else in the room, and my books sprawled about.
Jam it back in, in the dark.
