As the fall semester approaches, are you wondering how to decorate your apartment without breaking your wallet? I found some apartment essentials that are visually appealing and budget-friendly, so you don't have to search for yourself! After visiting many different stores, I found the most affordable options for a college apartment that you should check out for yourself. Here are my recommendations!!!

Decorative Pillows

Hop on over to T.J. Maxx to find yourself some cute yet affordable decorative pillows! They come in many different colors and styles, and there are often some amazing deals that you can take advantage of. Use these on your bed or toss them on the couch for some color!

Search Amazon for an iced coffee maker! Coffee is an essential part of my mornings, and having iced coffee readily available is a game changer. Do not spend your money on Dunkin' and Starbucks every morning!

Glass Photo Tiles And Picture Frames

Adding photos to your wall is easily one of the quickest ways to spice up a room. Using EasyTiles or going to a store such as Walmart and printing photos allows for a sleek look that can be stylized to your liking. These unique pieces are starting to take over!

Nightstand Dressers

Amazon has a wide array of adorable dresser sets on their website. You can even turn them into a nightstand and add all sorts of decorations on top! Try adding plants, books, or framed pictures on top of these items to save space and look stylish all at once.

Outdoor Furniture

If your apartment has a patio, spice it up with some outdoor furniture! Add some string lights and a few chairs on the patio to create a space for people to hang out outside of your apartment.

I hope these recommendations help you spice up your new home.

A three-and-a-half-hour runtime. Nine Eras. Eleven outfit changes. Three surprise songs. Zero breaks. One unforgettable evening. In the past century, no other performer has put on an electric performance quite like Taylor Swift, surpassing her fans ‘wildest dreams’. It is the reason supporters keep coming back to her shows each year. Days later, I’m still in awe of the spectacle ‘Miss Americana’ puts on every few days in a new city. And, like one of Taylor’s exes, has me smiling as I reminisce about the memories of the night we spent together.

Today I started my third week of college at Minnesota State Moorhead. I have survived welcome week, finding my classes on the first day, and being an awkward loner in the dining hall. Even though I have yet to be here for a month, I have already experienced many thoughts and problems that only a new college student can relate to.

"Make sure to get involved when you're in college!"

We've all heard some variation of this phrase, whether it came from parents, other family members, friends, RAs, or college-related articles. And, like many clichés, it's true for the most part. Getting involved during your college years can help you make friends, build your resume, and feel connected to your campus. However, these commitments can get stressful if you're dealing with personal issues, need to work, or aren't sure how to balance classes and everything else going on during the semester.

In college, one of the essential things to have is friends. Yes, textbooks, a laptop, and other school supplies are important but friends are essential. Friends are that support system everybody needs. The more friends you have the better the support system you have. But you also have someone to share experiences with. And don’t settle for just one or two friends because 8 out of 10 times they are busy and you are studying all alone. Or they have other friend groups that do not include you. Don’t settle for just one or two friends; make as many friends as you can. After the first couple of weeks of college, most friend groups are set and you may be without friends.
