As a graduating college senior, I can confidently say that I am ready to move on to the next chapter in my life - whatever that looks like. I will miss college friends and experiences, but I won't miss these 11 school-related items that took a hit on my bank account.
1. Textbooks
Not having to pay over $200/semester just for textbooks we probably won't even use really puts finances in perspective.
2. Rubbermaid Containers
You may still have these around your living space, but at least you don't have to cram all of your belongings in tubs under your dorm bed.
5. Thumb And Sticky Tack
The most stressful part of decorating a dorm room was finding things that both wouldn't wreck the walls and would keep things up.
5. Heavy duty backpacks
The first semester, style wins over practicality. However, every semester after that proves that usefulness is the best way to go. Now you don't have to worry about purchasing an overpriced (but needed) backpack.
6. Bed Risers
Now you have the freedom to purchase any bed you want with whatever hight bed frame you choose.
7. Shower Caddies
The freedom of having the space to spread your things out in the shower in unmatched.
8. Insane Amounts Of Stationary And Miscellaneous Supplies
No need for six binders and 12 highlighters anymore.
10. Rolling Storage Units
Gone are the days where you store all your mugs and K-cups in a rolling metal bin.
11. Mini Fan
You no longer have to live for that few seconds of cool air while working on homework.
