Although everyone is different, there are certain things that, most if not all, girls can agree on. Especially as a college student, these 10 items are something that, in my opinion, every girl needs to be successful throughout their college career.

Endless amount of T-Shirts

T-shirts will become your favorite piece of clothing for class. They make your mornings easier and your days a little more comfortable. If you can buy them in all colors, oversized or fitted.

Cosmetic Organizer

The best way to declutter your bathroom or desk is by getting a cosmetic organizer. Not only will you have more room but you'll be able to see everything you have, cutting your getting ready time in half.

Leggings

You can NEVER have too many leggings. Try to get at least one legging per day and pairing them with one of your many colorful t-shirt and you won't even have to spend time thinking about what you'll wear in the morning

Mattress topper

Dorm and student housing beds will never compare to your comfortable bed from home. Nothing is worse than sleeping on an uncomfortable mattress. Mattress toppers will be more comfortable and it'll make you feel a little more at home.

Planner

As the semester goes on, it is very easy to unorganized. To avoid this it is best to buy a planner at the beginning of the semester and write down any important due dates so you won't miss them.

Full-body mirror

Whether you're in college or not, a full length mirror is a necessity in a girl's life, so one can get a full view of their outfit before they leave their home.

Tumbler

Tumblers come in handy for many reasons. Whether you're trying to wake up for the dreadful 8 am class with some iced coffee or you're just trying to stay hydrated throughout the day, you'll get good use out of your tumbler by the end of the semester. Plus it helps the environment.

Face mask

After long a stressful days filled with studying and assignments, all you'll want to do is stay home and relax. Although you can't see how much stress affects your skin, in the long run it'll become more obvious. Using a face mask every now and then can help your skin feel and continue to look fresh and rejuvenated.

Hair straightener or blow dryer

Just like the full-length mirror, a hair straightener and/or blow dryer is something every girl needs regardless if they're in college or not. Regardless if you just want to dry your hair or change your hairstyle these hair styling tools will always come in handy.

 Baseball caps

Last but not least, don't forget your favorite baseball caps. Although we would like to, not every day is a good hair day. So for those mornings that your hair is not cooperating, throw on a baseball cap and you're ready or class.

Thank You on wooden blocks

1. Thank you for being the one I can always count on to be honest.

A true friend will tell you if the shirt is ugly, or at least ask to borrow it and "accidentally" burn it.

2. Thank you for accepting me for who I am.

A best friend will love you regardless of the stale french fries you left on the floor of your car, or when you had lice in 8th grade and no one wanted to talk to you.

Do as I say, not as I do.

Your eyes widen in horror as you stare at your phone. Beads of sweat begin to saturate your palm as your fingers tremble in fear. The illuminated screen reads, "Missed Call: Mom."

Growing up with strict parents, you learn that a few things go unsaid. Manners are everything. Never talk back. Do as you're told without question. Most importantly, you develop a system and catch on to these quirks that strict parents have so that you can play their game and do what you want.

"Friends" maybe didn’t have everything right or realistic all the time, but they did have enough episodes to create countless reaction GIFs and enough awesomeness to create, well, the legacy they did. Something else that is timeless, a little rough, but memorable? Living away from the comforts of home. Whether you have an apartment, a dorm, your first house, or some sort of residence that is not the house you grew up in, I’m sure you can relate to most of these!
