4. A clip-on fan for the warmer days.
If you’ve never been in a dorm you may not realize how stale and yucky the air can get. A fan that can clip onto your desk, nightstand or even your bed is perfect for giving you that extra breeze (and maybe it’ll even cancel out the noise from your roommate snoring!)
5. A cute bean bag chair for entertaining guests!

This is perfect for setting your phone down on, water, and anything else you could need at a moments notice when you just don’t feel like getting up. It safely holds up to 15 lbs (which is basically like putting 6 laptops on it at once) so don’t worry that it won’t hold your things!
