The College Packing List (of Everything You Probably Forgot)

Thinking back three years ago, I remember the excitement I felt about moving off to school and living in the dorm. Dorm life isn’t all that great, but I’d be living on my own for the first time, and my future roommate and I were talking every day about things we needed for the dorm, things we already had, etc.

It’s funny now, when I thought of this post, I asked her “what did we forget for our dorm?” Well, I’m one of those people who can usually think of everything that I need, and my roommate from freshman year is the same way.
Thankfully, I had some awesome blogger friends who helped me think of some things that you probably won’t think of bringing until you get to your dorm (or even your apartment).
