Some of these items are overlooked but are crucial to surviving being on campus and not in your dorm room.
1. Headphones
Whether they are the state of the art Beats or those cheap white headphones that come with the iPhone when you purchase one (I now have collected two pairs), you need headphones in case you want to listen to music, watch Netflix or watch a video that a professor requests to be watched.
2. Laptop
Cause duhhh! You NEED a laptop just to be able to go to college and you most definitely need it when you make your way around campus.
3. Gum
Cause after that morning coffee and you have that coffee breath you need some gum to cover it up. But just remember, just like in middle school, if people see you pulling out a pack of gum, they might all want some!
4. Hand Sanitizer
This is more of a personal thing, but I always carry hand sanitizer with me in case something sticky gets on my hands. It especially helps when your left-handed and all the ink from the pens you use taking notes, and that was me. I generally get my hand sanitizers from Bath & Body Works! My favorite place in the world.
5. Hand Lotion
This is how I feel after pulling out sweet-smelling hand lotion out of my backpack and put it on my hands! I also prefer my hand lotions from Bath & Body Works, and the biggest reason I like to keep hand lotion on me because my hands get really dry, especially in the winter.
6. Rice Paper
The savior of all makeup, especially on a really sunny day. Rice paper, otherwise known as blotting paper helps prevent oily skin after a long day of wearing makeup.
7. A book
I love to read, so I try to keep a book on me to read on my downtime.
8. A FlashDrive
Cause you never know when you will need a lot of space you will need to save an assignment!
9. Chapstick
Just like my hands, my lips also get dry, and I like being able to have it on me in case I need it!
10. Chargers
I always keep my chargers on me because sometimes I will not be the room for hours on end and I do not want any of my goods to die on me!
