Find my full college packing list here but let's talk about some things you might have left off of yours.

1) Reed diffuser - Safe for the dorm, even more low maintenance than an oil diffuser

2) Cooking utensils

3) Adapter(s)- Especially if you have a Mac or an only USB-C computer, you will need this!

4) Small portable charger - Your phone will die without one

5) Nail files + nail cutter

6) Clock

7) Phone stand

8) Heating pack (and look how CUTE this one is)

9) Lap desk - For all those times you are working in bed

10) Picnic blanket

11) Nightstand lamp - Everyone hates getting up and if you're like me, you also hate ceiling lights

12) Shoe rack - and this one is expandable for big and small collections alike!

13) Doorstop - the doors will be swinging open and shut otherwise!

14) Box cutter/craft knife - for opening packages if you get a lot of mail!

15) Filtered water bottle - so you'll always have drinkable water throughout the day!
