Education opens up many doors and the more education one gets the more choices and opportunities one will have in life. We could write a whole book explaining how going to college is the most important thing a young man or woman can do for their future, but instead, with this list we intend to enlighten those who have already made this wise choice and are about to have some of the best times in their lives. As someone who spent not one, not two, but seven whole years before graduating law school, here are 25 life hacks that will help college students have an easier, funnier, and more enjoyable time while at college.
Be creative with the decoration of your crib
Decorative items can be expensive. But if you let your creative side out for a while, you might be surprised what you can come up with. For example, someone decided to create this cool beer can ceiling lamp.
Learn how to brew coffee without a coffeemaker
Coffee makers can be a student’s best friend…especially during finals. But coffeemakers don’t hold a monopoly on making coffee. One easy way to brew coffee without the coffeemaker is to wrap about two tablespoons of grounds in a coffee filter and tie with a string. Then pour boiling water and let the coffee seep.
Use a hanger as a towel holder
A college dorm is not a place to boast of excess space. And towel storage takes a lot of space, but it doesn’t have to. Use clothes hangers to hang your towels for later use.
Organize your bathroom with an old CD tower
Now that we’re well into the mp3 era CDs are becoming somewhat outdated. But if your thinking about getting rid of your old CD tower consider this. Use that tower as a bathroom shelf organizer. Simply create bigger slots by removing excess CD dividers.
Save the remaining uncooked pasta in a Pringles can
Cooking pasta just for yourself is always a problem simply because most people can’t eat a whole pound in one or two sittings, and then you don’t know what to do with the rest of the spaghetti especially after you’ve ripped open the box. That’s why you should always keep empty Pringles cans somewhere.
