5 Of My Favorite Back-To-School Buys You're Sure To Love

Emma Hughson

Here are a few of my favorite items that I've bought in prep of going back to school. Luckily, all of these are items are year-around at almost every mall!

1. Happy Planner:

Honestly, this is the best thing to buy if you love being organized but hate that traditional planners don't allow for ultimate creativity. The actual planners come in every color. The inserts are equally as amazing and come in any design/style/layout/print you can imagine. If you don't see one you love, Pinterest has DIY instructions for making your own.

I have a medium sized planner in the rainbow print and LOVE it. (see planner in #2.)

1.5 All of the Happy Planner extras: A.K.A. the super cute accessories.

Some of these are exclusively Happy Planner and some are just generic school supplies, but you totally need these! A lot of these can be sort of expensive but Pinterest has a DIY version for most of them.

2. Gel Highlighters & Super Cute School supplies:

The cute pens and notebooks are definitely my favorite part of back to school.

3. 5 for $28 Victoria's Secret*

The five words every girl loves to hear.

*5 underwear for $28 at Victoria's Secret.

4. American Eagle Jeans

Back to school is really an excuse to buy new clothes in general, but these are the only jeans/khaki pants I own.

5. Coffee Maker

The best thing you can buy because nothing is better than coffee (or whatever hot beverage you like). Plus you can buy super cute coffee mugs, which is really why we like coffee.

10 Truths About Being In A Sorority

I remember my freshman year oh so well. I remember feeling terrified the night before orientation. The one thing that I dreaded the most was not the new people, the new environment, or even the academic pressure. I was dreading having to talk to sorority girls about Recruitment. I remember cutting off and avoiding any Rho Gamma/Panhellenic Officer that came my way during First Week. I looked at them like they had asked me to cut my arm off whenever they asked me if I wanted to rush. To be honest, I did not even know what rush was, but I knew that I did NOT want to be a part of it. To me, it was dumb. It was a waste of money. It was a waste of my time.

And guess what? I did not rush my freshman year. I spent the first half of my freshman year isolating myself from everyone on campus. I spent all of my time in the library, and then (since I was a commuter) went back home once my work was finished.
