As a rising freshman into college, one could say I will really not know what I'm getting into until I'm thrown into the wolf pack. I wanted to do some research and get tricks up my sleeve for the upcoming year. Below are the most important "lifehacks" I've learned about so far.
1. Invest in a voice recorder or use your phone!
Record lectures and can play it back faster than it was said to save time and study more!
Click here for a reasonably priced one!
2. Did you know how many things you can make with a coffee pot?!
Neither did I, but the wonderful Buzzfeed figured that out for us. From poached chicken and couscous to chocolate fondue, you're going to want to buy one of these.
3. Put your phone in a red solo cup to blast music throughout your dorm!
Whether you like to have dance parties in your towel after a shower, or you're having some friends over in your dorm, not everyone can afford loud, extravagant speakers.
4. Don't have money but you want to...Netflix and chill?
Use a used prepaid gift card, and all your troubles will disappear! Whether it be Netflix, Hulu, or another website that offers "free trials" where you have to give all your information, you won't have to worry about paying that bill!
5. We all could use more space when sharing living quarters with multiple other people.
6. Use your school e-mail address for six months of free Amazon Prime!
I mean, who doesn't love free TV shows and two-day shipping?
