College is hard. Watching freshmen wobble around campus is like watching newborn calves walk. Life on your own is a new adventure, and it isn't super easy to figure out how to go about your day-by-day routine! Here are some easy tips to make your life in a dorm easier.
1. Fill in wall holes with soap.
Did you hammer in that nail a little too hard? Leave a hole? Soap! You can also use white toothpaste.
2. Clean glass with lemon juice.
Apply lemon juice to metal or glass, and the caked on dirt will come right off. The citrus in the lemon juice fights the dirt to keep it clean.
