Dorm Essentials

Hi all! So dorm season is right around the corner for for all you incoming college freshman! What an exciting time, full of all nighters, pajama parties & getting sex-exiled by your roommate! Ah, nothing like being a freshman! So this past year I lived in a dorm at my college & I thought I'd give you guys my MUST HAVE packing list! These are the essentials that totally saved my butt durring the year! Make sure to check out my Dr. Meghan Packing video for even MORE dorm tips!

A mattress topper was a serious must have item for me, the dorm beds were so uncomfortable I can even tell you! There are tons of different kinds of toppers, ranging in price, so check out places like Bed Bath & Beyond or Target to find one that works for you! 

You NEEED this! Twin XL bedding! Nothing else will fit the dorm beds if this is the size bed you have! You're school will tell you what size the bed is before move-in, and if not, you can always call and ask! I suggest getting 2 sets, one that's a lighter material, like a cotton, and another that's fleece or jersey for the colder months! 




Get fun pillows! I can't even tell you how easily you can dress up your room with colorful pattern pillows! Target, Marshalls, and Ross have tons of cheap pillows! Go for something COMFY too! None of that sparkly decorative stuff! You want something totally plush that you can snuggle with when you study!

Towels! Get these all in the same color, then another set in a different color! I reccomend getting ones of all sizes so you're never without one! 


You need to document the memories of your freshman year! I'd advise getting a cheaper camera (cheaper than this LOL) because chances are you'll be taking pictures at parties, and you don't want to have something SO nice that you'll be devistated if something happens to it!

I adore these! I (sadly) didn't have enough room in my closet to use these, but my roommate used them for jeans, so handy! Just make sure you don't put TOO much stuff in them that weighs them down!



Belts....totally something I blanked on storage, I LOVE these! It keeps them compact, but not falling and slipping everywhere!

Scarves are a must have in any wardrobe, and storing them was so confusing for me, this seems like a really easy way to keep them all together, but still accessible!

Awww this stool brings back such good memories! This is actually the EXACT stool my roommate and I got to jump up on our beds! It's perfect if there are hard to reach storage spots!

How cute are these? We had one in our room that we could write reminders on, like a midterm study session, or just for our friends to write funny notes to us on!

These are actually the drawers my roommate used to store extra clothes under her bed! Perfect for undies, bras, bathing suits, or even jeans, or hoodies!

THIS WAS MY SAVIOR! Totally not even kidding! This hooks on the side of your bed so you can just reach right over to grab any bedtime stuff! In there I would keep my ipod, my kindle, chapstick, a sleeping mask, headphones, my medications, and a camelbak waterbottle! SUPER easy access for my lazy folks!




SHOWER CADDYYYYYY! This will be your best friend. You don't even want to hear the horror stories I have of things I've found in the bathrooms...yuck! If you're like me, you'll share a bathroom with 30 other girls, you so do NOT want your bare feet touching that gross floor! You NEEED shower shoes! Just any cheap flip flops! And in your shower caddy just keep any things you need durring your shower! Make sure it's waterproof cause it WILL get wet!


If you're a hair girl you're going to want this! A super easy compact way to store all your electronic hair tools! This way the cords don't get tanged either!




Chances are you won't bring an iron or a steamer to school, but no one likes wrinkly clothes! This spray instantly gets any wrinkles out of your clothes, and SUPER quick!




Okay! So those are some of my dorm packing essentials! Have any questions? Make sure to comment them down bellow! AND if you haven't, check out my Dr. Meghan packing video for storage tips, what to bring, and how to decorate your dorm room!

  15. WOW!!!
    This is the most wonderful thing i have ever experience and i need to share this great testimony.
    About how i get my ex back after a breakup.
    I never believed it, because i never heard nor learn anything about it before.
    Hey guys my wife and I have been married for 15 years. For over five years I have been dealing with jealousy issues because of flirting and her having emotional type affairs with other men. I felt like my masculinity was in question and if I said the way she was acting bothered me, it seemed to make matters worse or I was accused of being controling. During this period I did state I wanted a divorce if the behavior was not going to end: texting men a night, leaving for the weekend without letting me know where she was going or not responding to messages. We do have a son and basically it's been him and I for the last year on the weekends. She disconnected completely from being a good wife and mother. In April she said she wanted a separation and I said no we need to get into marriage counseling. We did try that, but she was not very responsive and didn't give any effort. Afterward she was adamant about separation and divorce. I continued to say no and that we needed to save our family. She presented a separation agreement and I had to hire a lawyer. Because of the above behavior my lawyer suggested a private investigator. The investigator discovered my wife was having an affair with a close friend of the family who also is married with children. We know the extended families. I feel like I should tell this man's wife about what happened. This adultery has devastated me emotionally, I feel betrayed and I'm physically drained. I know my wife is passionate in terms of her sexuality, and I can't get the thought of them out of my head. It makes me question my own manhood, and I feel very inferior or that he must be a better lover or what ever. The problem is my wife pursued him. She would go to him and she lured him into this adultery. I felt this was coming for some time and could not stop it. She was not only lying to me but also to our son about what she was doing and where she was going. My family is important, my son loves her and as crazy as it sounds so do I. Can you respond with a course of action on how to proceed? I was still have a very huge place in my heart for her. so i searched for help online and I came across a website that suggested that Dr Ahmed can help solve marital problems, restore broken relationships and so on. So I felt I should give him a try. I contacted him and he told me what to do and i did it then he did a spell for me. 28 hours later, my wife came to me and apologized for the wrongs she did and promise never to do it again. Ever since then, everything has returned back to normal. I, my son and my wife are living together happily again.. All thanks to Dr Ahmed. as it is a place to resolve marriage/relationship issues, do you want to be sure if your spouse is being faithful to you or Do you want your Ex to come back to you Contact.: E-mail: Ahmedutimate@gmail.com or call/Whats-app: +2348160153829 save your crumbling home and change of grades its 100% safe. I suggest you contact him. He will not disappoint you.

  16. Good new my bf is back.. I was having serious relationship problems with my bf and it had has gotten to a point of him moving out to his friend’s apartment. everything got worse because he started going to bars and strip clubs frequently with his friend, getting drunk and passing out. He always threatens me on phone whenever I call him because of all the bad advises that his friend has given him. I really love him and we had been dating for 8 years which gave us a beautiful daughter. I had also lost a lot of money on therapists until I was introduced to Dr happy by a friend whom he helped to marry her childhood bf; this gave me total confidence and strength to get him back. I did all he asked and a day after the spell my bf called me and rushed back home, things just changed between us emotionally. He has a job and stopped drinking and keeping irrelevant friends. It’s a miracle I never believed was possible because I had lost all hope until I found Dr happy. So that’s why I promised to share my testimony all over the universe. Please my advise to every one looking for relationship help, marriage help, get and fix your broken home, is to contact Dr happy the real Africa spell caster now on..............

  17. Hello, Am here to testify what this great spell caster as done for me. My Name is Kateri Aiyana, form Australia. I never thought I’d be writing this message but after 9 years of marriage and nearly lost my husband due to not be able to have a child, severe endometriosis and scanning, I was told that IVF was the only option. This was something we could not afford and had almost given up hope of becoming parents. A friend of mine recommended Prophet Abulele to me and persuaded me to contact him, he did a spiritual breakthrough for me to make me get pregnant, within 3 weeks I was pregnant (naturally!!!) and gave birth to twins a boy and a girl in September. I am writing this message for those women who are at the stage I was at, depressed with no light at the end of the tunnel. give Prophet Abulele a try to help you solve your problem, and i assure you’ll have the same success that I have had. Here is his email address: ( prophetabulelehealingtemple@gmail.com )I want you all to contact him for those who are having any problem related to marriage issue and relationship problem or health issue he will solve it for you.

    Dr joy is a trust worthy spell caster and he will be of great help to you. I never believed in spell casting but After 4 years of marriage my husband left me because I lost my womb, and i was unable to give birth to children. I felt like my life has come to an end, and i almost committed suicide, i was emotionally down for a very long time, but thanks to this spell caster called Dr joy whom i met online after my friend Becky Ross told me how he also helped her to bring back her husband in less than 2 days. I believed her and decided to give Dr joy a try and i contacted him on his email joylovespell@gmail.com. and explained my problems to him. He laughed and told me that In less than 2 days, my Husband will come back to me again, and that he will restore my womb and i will give birth to children. At first i thought it was a joke but i took courage and believed as Dr joy has said and it did happen just as this Great spell caster said, My husband called me and was crying, begging for forgiveness. I forgive him and today i am so glad that all worries and problems has gone away, and we are even happier than before, another good news is that i am pregnant now, and very soon we will have our baby. Dr joy is really a gifted and a powerful spiritual man and i will not stop publishing him because he is a wonderful man. I advice you all If you have a problem and you are looking for a real and genuine spell caster to solve all your problems just Contact Dr joy on his email on joylovespell@gmail.com. because he will always help you to solve all problems. Once again thank you Dr joy. Thank you, thank you.

  20. I had doubts about magic spells after purchasing many spells that never worked I actually decided to never buy a spell again. I have tried different spell casters..Some of them never answered me after I paid and were obvious scammers, some really cast a spell but for some reason it didn't work. Then I saw a video on you-tube with a person who was mentioning she had results with Mama Anita. Despite the suspicions I had her site looked real so I gave spells a last try. It's probably the best decision I ever made in my life because it worked and my boyfriend came back with me After I broke up with him I spent a lot of time wishing that I could just turn the clock backwards.He helped me do just that. In fact our relationship feels like the break up never even happened. We have never been this happy or passionate, all thanks to mama Anita. If you're looking for a good spell caster look no further,you can contact her straight on(mamaanita.lovespellsolution@gmail.com) mamaanita.lovespellsolution@gmail.com
