7 Tips for Keeping Your College Dorm Clean

Keeping your college dorm clean is a major difficulty. With classes, clubs, a social life and maybe even a jobs or sports there is little time to keep up with the cleanliness and organization of your room. I myself can say that my room is never constantly clean.

1. Clorox Wipes

Clorox Wipes have become the most useful cleaning supply for me in college. You need them for cleaning your sink, your desk, and pretty much anything. They are definitely a lifesaver and a necessity when it comes to keeping your room clean.

2. Mini Vacuum

Mini vacuums are great for keeping in your dorm because they are compact and do not take up a lot of space but they get the job done.

3. Swiffer Sweeper

Along with a mini vacuum, a Swiffer Sweeper comes in handy when it comes to cleaning your room. It will allow to clean all of those hard to reach places.

4. Decorate

Decorating your room and making it look nice will make you more motivated to keep your room tidy.

5. Stay Organized

If you keep all of your stuff organized then it is easier to keep your room clean. Buy organizing bins to put your stuff in and keep track of everything.

6. Clean Every Week

So that your room stays clean, it is good to stay consistent. Try to straighten up your room one to two times a week.

7. Do Your Laundry

Waiting 2 weeks to do laundry is never good. Your laundry builds up and it will make your room a mess. It is best to do your laundry often so this does not happen.

Ever since I could remember, it was a treat to receive Easter Bread made by my grandmother. We would only have it once a year and the wait was excruciating. Now that my grandmother has gotten older, she has stopped baking a lot of her recipes that require a lot of hand usage--her traditional Italian baking means no machines. So for the past few years, I have missed enjoying my Easter Bread.

I was asked so many times why I wanted to go to a small school when a big university is so much better. Don't get me wrong, I'm sure a big university is great but I absolutely love going to a small school. I know that I miss out on big sporting events and having people actually know where it is. I can't even count how many times I've been asked where it is and I know they won't know so I just say "somewhere in the middle of Wisconsin." But, I get to know most people at my school and I know my professors very well. Not to mention, being able to walk to the other side of campus in 5 minutes at a casual walking pace. I am so happy I made the decision to go to school where I did. I love my school and these are just a few reasons why.
