Essentials You Should Have As a Fresher in College

There are essentials you'll need when going to the University for the first time. These are stuffs that you will be needing to ensure your day to day activities are smooth sailing.
We've made a list of some of these items.

1. Tissue paper

This is a must have. You'll need it for the loo. It runs out surprisingly quickly, so you need to stock on them especially if you are living with a roommate.

1. First aid kit

Maybe not a complete set. Some plasters and paracetamol may just do.

1. Toiletries

Some toothpastes, shampoos, bathing soaps, hair conditioners etc.

1. Toothbrush

This is basic really. Toothbrushes are important if you want to avoid a smelly mouth.

1. Condom

If you'll be sexually active in school, it is advisable that you get a condom. It is for your protection.

1. Towel

For your drying your body after bath.

1. A laptop

This is important for both studying and relaxation.

1. Memory drive

This is for storing all your important files. Try to make sure your drive has a lot of space. A size 32g is advised.

1. Stationery

Pens, books, highlighters, notepads, pencils, erasers etc.

1. Some New Clothes

Yea, you are a fresher, try to look presentable if you can help it.

1. Paper bin

Try getting one, it will save you the stress of going out to throw each paper. You could gather them up in the bin and take them all out at once.

1. Food

Personal food. There are days if you have a roommate and you just do not feel like eating what has been prepared. You could just munch on the personal food you brought.

1. Desk lamp

In case there's no electricity and you feel like reading or doing something that requires light.

1. Grooming kit

For your manicures and pedicures.

1. Reading desk

For your reading and writing purposes.

1. Bed

If you school in Nigeria, you'll know you have to buy your foam when coming to school. Try getting one so you don't get 'uncomfortable' at night.

1. Cooking gas

For cooking purposes. Self explanatory really ☺.

1. Kitchen Utensils

Pots, spoons, plates, knives, cups etc.

1. Body lotion

For after bath. Makes your skin look good 😉.

1. Hangers

What's the point of a wardrobe with no hangers? Try getting some.
