the ULTIMATE COLLEGE ESSENTIALS guide! ⭐️📔 (tech, accessories, stationery & more)

[@sebashroom5920]

As a person in college right now, you do not need to be spending this much money! All of these are really expensive items, and you can survive and still do amazing in college with just regular school items from Walmart. To everyone watching this, please do not listen to her! Do not buy anything before you begin your classes. Let the first day pass, and you will notice that you won't even need a pen and paper for some of your classes sometimes. Let a week pass before going on a shopping haul. I use none of these items (it's good that she uses them I guess), and I never needed any of these. If you are going to take notes on your iPad, then don't buy stationary and vice versa! You can also get amazing headphones from other brands for under 100 dollars, you do not need the AirPods. You also do not need glasses to look cute when you are studying. I have had so many friends buy some of these and spend a lot of money only to never use them. There was nothing informative in this video!

I agree! 👍

thank you, you saved me time and money

[@itsashlierosie]

PLEAAAAASE DO A NOTION TOUR VIDEO, i use notion but my page layout is suuuuper basic cuz i'm not a tech girlie (though even using the most basic layout it helps so much to keep me from procrastinating)

[@blue-1079]

PLEASE. i've just started using notion, and i'd love to know how to utilise it more effectively!

[@preciouslol3812]

YESSS!!

[@EmilyMooremore]

One thing that really helped me is getting a notebook for time management! It's such a lifesaver in uni, especially when there are so many cute ones to choose from. My personal favorite is Burga

[@bambiiwow]

Like a planner?

[@EmilyMooremore]

@@bambiiwow I use a regular notebook, but I think they have planners too

[@Ryan-xh3kc]

as someone really looking forward to college life, youve just inspired maybe 4-5 people right now

[@athinalaskoudi5582]

Me going to college in Greece, I feel like I live in the stone age 😂. No macbooks or ipads, notebook and pens people and if you were fancy, highlighter. The softwares for studying would have been useful though and headphones are definitely life saver when you need to study.

[@donney6222]

if you are getting new tech! i highly recommend looking for refurbished / second hand options! the saving are unbeatable and you can find somthing perfect for you. for me i wnated a phone with tons of storage but i don’t want to pay for it. getting somthing refurbuished allowed me to get what i was looking for at an incredibly affordable price and it was lightly used a few scratches but nothing noticeable one i wiped it and put a case on it. not to mention that these tech companies are extremely explorative !! free congo

[@Bookdrogan]

I got my laptop 💻 during a Black Friday sale and saved HUNDREDS! 🎉

Omg I love your content and you give me huge motivation to take care of myself and help me try hard so I can get into a good college hopefully :) thank you 💛

[@thatonedog819]

Here's my essentials list - - Highlighters... The cheap ones work fine. - black pens for signing official paperwork -pencils - good for mistakes on homework and required for many tests -Tags for your textbook -notebooks, obviously -folders... That said some professors give you so much stuff that you need something more substantial 😂 -planner to write assignments Then you wait until your classes. - a lot of times you don't even touch the textbook so it's a waste of money - math classes only allow specific calculators and you don't want to waste your money on a $100+ calculator that you can't even use 🤷‍♀️ -some may require a binder -ect... If you can afford an iPad - I would do it... But don't spend money you don't have, you can absolutely succeed easily without it. I just like having all my notes in one place and it makes homework easier because I don't have to print anything. Get the air, don't waste your money on a pro, trust me. In that case... - a case -apple pencil -matte screen protector -pencil, pens, Highlighters, tags - ONE notebook and folder. You won't need more. But sometimes you get stuff in class or have assignments in class that's due at the end of class. Scan in any handouts into your iPad later *I do NOT recommend goodnotes anymore. I loved goodnotes 5. Goodnotes 6 has a ton of bugs, my files keep corrupting, and there's a ton of overheating and battery life issues. The devs care more about adding features instead of fixing bugs to make the app actually usable

[@KamBowen21]

I am currently going to be a Junior in college for the Fall of 2024, and all I can say is that most of the time it is going to be 'cheaper is better', honestly. If you are someone like me who cannot afford the expensive items that may be more attractive to the social eye, you have to come to terms that it will always set you back. The money you could've saved if you bought the cheaper version of the product would be able to go somewhere else. Most of the time you're just paying for the brand name and not the actual quality of the product!

[@Hollygirl328]

I love ur channel!!!! It really helps me prepare for modern college!!! Such a time saver and very relatable! Just earned a new sub 😊!!!!

[@rat_1754]

Please dont listen to her... almost nothing she listed is actually needed!! This is from someone about to graduate with a 4.0 in math.. lol

[@Gurl_pNg]

I would get blue light glasses but the thing is that I already have prescription glasses so yay! Also what I do to keep me from loosing my keys is just put them on a clip and clip it to my belt loop (I wear jeans on the daily)

[@Brimoe18]

You can add blue light protection to RX glasses when you order them. They actually help me a lot

[@m0ssbl0b29]

The more prepared you are, the better 🫶 it will absolutely sneak up on you, and the years will seem to go so slow but so fast (from a 24 graduate)

[@Raymbot]

I’m obsessed with your content! it’s just so reliable

[@Antoniaantoto]

I can't wait for new videos. They are so cozy and relaxing. Hope you'll start posting more on youtube

[@SimranjeetHusain]

Your closet is simple a dream! Not just the LYXBAG bags but the ready to wear that you have is absolutely stunning.

[@h34rtz4mwaahh]

Am i in collage? No. Will i go to collage? Probably not. Did i watch this whole this though? Yes, yes i did.

[@sydneyskvoretz7231]

if you can’t afford an ipad or just don’t know if you need it, don’t get one. I chose to buy a new computer over an Ipad (also not necessary just a choice I fortunately had) and instead took paper notes which honestly was much more preferable when it came to studying and retention and so much more affordable.

[@lizbriar9565]

I’d wear a lanyard anyway but that’s because I use one already for my house key (it’s much lighter than my keychain).

[@artbook313]

Great video would LOVE more like this And also I can’t believe u graduated collage been watching you forever

[@idkhieee]

NOTION TOUR PLEASE!!! IVE BEEN TRYING TO GET USED TO IT BUT I JUST DONT UNDERSTAND 😭

[@AnaGomezsAdventures]

Could you make a video about easy gadgets to use/ buy for cooking as a college student. Love your vids keep up the work!!😊🫶🏼

[@Kiera248]

Please do a notion tour video. That would be awesome. Ps I love your video

[@cookies1488]

[@sarahcatemusic]

tbh all I needed in college was my laptop and pencils(if you are having labs). you can take note on your laptops bossbabes!!

[@Rgrpeace]

How about you give us some affordable advice :)

[@humanoid_freak]

Literally all this is so expensive!! Idk what student debt is like in the US but I will be budgeting as hard as possible at uni haha

[@gracemccord8795]

I love it when you uploads!🎉

[@NightBear.]

For macbook or ipad, I prefer iPad because of the apple pencil and better planning methods. Ipad is more versatile and if you want to have something to maybe type can get a case with a keyboard (preferably detachable) and that will sovle all your problems

[@miracles15]

As someone starting college, ive bought a laptop which flips 360 degrees and its touchscreen so i can use it as a laptop AND ipad. I already have a pair of headphones, I already have a phone, i already have a backpack, i dont need anything else thanks very much

[@hrishika2986]

Literally not even done w 8th grade but better early than never🤷🏾‍♀️

I would even say to invest in a poncho. I remember back in April 2015. There was one day when I was in college, and there was no way to stay dry even while using an umbrella.

[@100akerwoods]

Thanks for the Campus notebook rec , they are so flat and fit right with my laptop

[@too_tired_for_this]

Wow, this is wild. I graduated from grad school in 2005, and things were so different!

Your videos are so informative. Can you pls tell me about How to manage college study + part time work + self studies. You guide will help us. By the way I am a IT student .

[@t.leeknowsaurus297]

It’s been so long since you’ve done a video I’m so freaking excited

[@Julierubin224]

My middle school provides an iPad for each student with a keyboard case and that works great 2:00

[@saharafisher969]

HUH WHAT 😭 my school is so broke we have the wonky ahh Chromebook (as a highschooler...)

[@Julierubin224]

@@saharafisher969 in my town it’s kind of weird. K-2 has iPads that they give back to the school after 2nd grade. The same thing happens in middle school. But 3-5 has chrome books that they give back after 5th grade. And high schoolers can ether bring their own laptop or they can borrow a chrome book from the school.

[@eustaquiozambrano2974]

Nice job girl. Have a nice day ❤

[@hadiyahamidi7484]

omg thnxxx sm, could u pls make a vid abt notion and how to use it 🙏🙏

[@constellous1382]

For people choosing computers for college, at times colleges has recommended specs based on your major, like I’m doing advertising and I’ll be using more demanding programs so I have a little better than the standard.

[@Fran-nl5jj]

Could you do a live stream showing us more stuff and maybe like showing how u do ur makeup etc. ily ur vids soo much

[@We1rd_guy]

So relatable (I'm italian and probably never going to university)

[@Aurora-j8e]

I wish I could use planners and Notion. The only thing that works for me is to write things down in the notes app or in a regular notebook. The first two feel like a big commitment and I always give up when it doesn't look perfect or when I forget to use it for a while.

[@cutekittyplayz6012]

Not me being an elementary student watching videos about college

[@elleloughran8117]

HAHA SAME

[@rileychristopher8348]

I was headed to class and slipped on the icy subway station stairs (live in NYC), landed on my back, and bent my MacBook in half. Tragic. AppleCare plan is worth it!

This was extremely helpful; I am about to become a senior in less than two days (I am exempt from all class test) and I have to apply for my college in December (7 months) then I work for that program that summer. Yes I will be living at home while I go to college but I still need to start looking for a shopping list for college therefore this was very helpful. CLASS OF 2025 !!!!

[@jadevu904]

👀👀👀 First time to your channel. Love your videos❤

[@diyakakkarr9433]

hey i just found your video but i recommend the souncore 20 anker, i love it cause it is lightweight and i have bigish ears so they fit perfect

[@mentaleel]

Could you compare the Sony headphones you have to the Jlab studio pros? The Jlab ones are cheaper but still quite nice.

[@KayVee.makinTeeVee]

i love youre vids soo mucchhh

[@Siddhi1812]

Please give notion tour🥲

[@IviannaG]

Sony headphones are amazing! I don't think the Apple headphones are worth the money, Apple also owns Beats, and they are again-much cheaper. But I'm in Europe, in USA I believe you can get student discount. A friend of mine got a great deal for iphone, ipad and air pods all together.But my Sony headphones were 75$, 5 years going strong, they have amazing buttons and connect really easily. Plus the battery live is over 48 hours (They last me around 2 weeks) (I got the previous gen, then the ones she showed)

[@aimeepenaloza5914]

Be careful with using Grammarly because I've heard of people's work being flagged as AI work and cheating when using Grammarly even if they didn't use the new AI feature.
