If you're like me you have lists of to-do's on your phone and computer. With that level of organization comes a list of things that must get done before going back to school. If you need a little help in situating what is important versus what isn't, follow this list to get some perspective.
Stock up on things for your apartment that you know you won't get once school begins.
This can include lightbulbs, cleaning supplies, and even things as basic as paper towels! Just stock up on the things that are necessary but also a hassle to get once your days become busy.
Say your goodbye's ahead of time.
The last thing you'll want to do before going back to school is say goodbye to everyone the day before you plan to leave. Get this done a week or two before so that your last days at home can be focused around you and your family.
Get a haircut.
If you're like me and never ever get your hair cut, get it done before going back to school. This will ensure a healthy year for your hair, and it can be done on your parent's credit card.
Buy new makeup.
After a long, hot summer it is very important to replace old makeup. Do this before school so you can go back without the worry of having to replace it.
Print your pictures AND buy the frames for them.
This is pretty self-explanatory but VERY necessary. Print them, frame them, and hang them as soon as you get there so you never have to stare at random people in your frames again!
Go through your closet and clean it out!
Bring only what you know you'll wear to school because there is nothing worse than an overpacked, underused closet.
Enjoy your time at home.
Once you get to school, you're there to stay for at least a little bit. Enjoy your time at home and with your friends and family.
I hope this list relieves some stress from your normal to-do list and brings you not only amazing organization, but a great peace of mind. Happy summer!
