Things I Bought for Back to School!

here are some things i got for back to school and why! (college edition)

1) Small Trash Can: you will definitely need this for either your room or your bathroom for the small things!

2) Adhesive Shower Caddy: everyone in the room is going to want a spot for their things in the shower so, unless you have a communal bathroom, i would suggest taking initiative to buy one for the room!

3) Rolling Laundry Hamper: this will definitely save your back and time when you need to do laundry and maybe feeling to lazy to carry the bag loll :)

4) Stackable Shoe Box: if you want to bring more than three pairs of shoes, then i definitely recommend buying and bringing one of these! i would also only bringing six pairs of shoes MAXIMUM! (if you want a separate post, i will make one on which you need)

5) Plastic Storage Cart: you will need more storage than you think! especially for my girlies who like to shop or have the tendency to overpack loll!

*items that aren’t mentioned are pretty self explanatory :))*

... Read moreAs students prepare to head back to school, it's crucial to have the right supplies that enhance both comfort and functionality in their living spaces. Here’s a breakdown of key items that can streamline daily routines and keep dorm life organized. 1. **Small Trash Can**: A necessary item to maintain cleanliness in your room or bathroom, ensuring that small disposables do not accumulate unnecessarily. 2. **Adhesive Shower Caddy**: For shared bathrooms, an adhesive shower caddy offers individual space for personal items, making access during showers much easier and more organized. 3. **Rolling Laundry Hamper**: Simplifying laundry day, a rolling hamper takes the burden off carrying heavy loads, especially when the motivation is low. 4. **Stackable Shoe Box**: An effective solution for closet craziness, stackable shoe boxes help preserve shoes while maximizing space. This is especially beneficial for those who have a shoe collection. 5. **Plastic Storage Cart**: Ideal for students who tend to overpack, these carts provide extra storage for school supplies or provisions, ensuring that everything has a place. Shopping smart for these items can save time and effort throughout the school year, allowing students to focus more on their studies and social experiences. Always consider your personal needs and the constraints of your living space to make the best choices.

things i bought for college that i regret
1. a mesh shower caddy —— it’s flimsy, there’s no place to hang it up, there’s pockets but things just all fall together anyways, it’s just not worth it. get a plastic one that stands up by itself. 2. tons of notebooks/folders/paper/etc —— almost everything is done online nowadays. don’t buy
