What to buy for dorm other than the obvious

<p>I was going to go shopping for whatever I need, I will be staying at pentland. Other than the obvious bed sheets and stuff what else would I want?
thanks</p>

<p>Not much…</p>

<p>You won’t need as many school supplies because a lot of homework is electronic, mostly notebooks for taking notes</p>

<p>(unless you’re a CHASS major)</p>

<p>Maybe a lamp, although they usually provide one.
A cord extension if you’re bringing a laptop, printer, etc</p>

<p>Some food from home too :D</p>

<p>um… there’s nothing that strikes me as not obvious but…</p>

<p>you definitely want surge protector/power strip…</p>

<p>i puts my books in a basket thing cuz i put a bunch of my useless stuff in the drawers. </p>

<p>DO bring shower flip flops… and a basket for ur shampoo and stuff.</p>

<p>trash bags, extra batteries, usb?</p>

<p>screw USB get an external HDD :D</p>

<p>Bring a stapler. It seems to be something most students forget.</p>

<p>i never used my stapler ;p </p>

<p>well, usb is useful for small files. get a keychain one… it’s convenient.</p>

<p>I noticed it was very dim light it in the rooms, what should I do for this</p>

<p>really? there’s light all over in east lo.</p>

<p>light on top of the mirror, your table, and on the ceiling… it was good enough for my room mate and me… and we absolutely HATE dim rooms.</p>

<p>bring a good lamp i guess haha</p>
