collegeandfinance.com — When it comes to bringing things for college, a lot of people make the mistake of packing stuff they don’t need, or forgetting to pack stuff they will need. Everyone knows that you need to take clothes, sheets, a micro-fridge, and a computer. However, I recently came across an article about 8 overlooked items college students should bring.

I'm just going to say f**k this bulls**t. I just started the new semester at SDSU. I work, pay rent, and am taking upper division e.e. courses. My life is hell. I don't have fun. School is not fun. I live at f**king home still and I still pay my parents rent. I haven't even ever have been laid. f**k you people and your easy lives. f**k you.

Ear plugs don't totally block out all noise...usually when an alarm goes off, it's loud enough to hear. Hopefully. I don't know. I hate ear plugs.

You don't need a ton of cleaning supplies. I have two words for you: Magic Eraser. That thing has dark magic inside of it, it will clean anything. And then it f**king disappears!

It's college -- you should be making your own, so no need to pirate.

hot glue works well to hang things on the walls I've used that a lot...and also extra long co-ax you never know how to re-arrange the room. We had our co-ax go along the top of the wall and over door frames to keep it off the floor hot glue kept it up there for 2 semesters. Extra cushion (foam mattress) for the bed...those aren't always comfy.Carpets or partial rugs...those tile floors get cold!!!! If your really lucky the room already has carpet...I was not a lucky one.Dish soap. NEVER LET THOSE DISHES SIT AROUND!!!!
