Miami is not an easy city and Florida is not an easy state. You don't just move here with your stuff from home and that's that. It takes many Target, Publix, and Dadeland Mall trips to adjust. So if you're coming to the University of Miami anytime soon, don't be surprised if you see a lot of these items.

1. An excessive amount of bathing suits

I'm guilty of this and trust me, it makes sense. We have pool parties every weekend plus a pool on campus. Just the five bathing suits you moved in with won't cut it.

2. A big umbrella

It rains all the time here. One minute it can be clear skies and the next minute it's pouring. I started the year bringing a small umbrella to class when I saw it was raining. Wrong. You need an umbrella constantly and it pours hard here. A small umbrella won't save your computer from water damage(trust me).

3. A Postmates account

Miami is one of the few cities that offers not only Postmates in general but a huge selection of restaurants and stores. Plus, I have yet to meet someone who likes the dining hall.

4. An Uber account

How else are you going to get to the Grove, Publix, brunch...anywhere?

5. Easy mac/cereal/microwaveable dinners

Again, the dining hall...

6. Multiple pairs of sunglasses

You'll need them every day and trust me you'll lose a pair or two at a frat pool party.

7. The best tailgate clothes
