School got you breaking out and going bald from stress? No worries, we’ve got your back. Your backpack.
Your one true friend for surviving school is your backpack, and we’ve got all the backpack essentials you need for your first day back at school!
Not only does it protect your laptop, it can hold all the little pieces that go along with it – charger, USB, a portable hard drive!
It makes life so much easier, and you can forget about forgetting these things when they’re all bundled together.

Because school is boring, and you definitely need to fill the silence with some sweet, sweet beats.
A good pair of headphones can totally improve your mood and boost your work ethic if you ever need it! If you’ve got a teacher who denies the benefits of headphones, just do a quick google about the studies linking music and learning!
It’s a mnemonic device, sis!

The most basic of basics, this is one backpack essential you can’t miss. You can shove everything you’ll ever need inside of it and be ready for whatever your work might entail.
There’s no going wrong with a pencil case – plus you can make a real statement with them if you find the right one for you!

Speaking of pencil cases – you need some pens to fill it with. A cute pair of gel pens can make boring old studying feel just a little bit brighter, while there’s something to be said about having a ballpoint that actually works!

Often overlooked, the stapler should be an essential for everyone! While your teacher or lecturer might have one, why take the risk?
Having the ability to organise your paperwork will save you time and headaches later on!

On that note, investing in a binder is a great way to just grab the one book, and have all the work you’ll need for class! You can buy dividers to separate by subject, and colour code things however you want!
More than that, there are some really cute options out there and they also feel so professional!

School sucks, but they don’t exist to provide you of basic rights. You can drink in class, and anyone who says otherwise is a facist, so ignore them.
Plus, a thermos full of hot chocolate or hot coffee is perfect for those early mornings! If you’re feeling peckish, you can even sneak in some soup!

Don’t think it’s a backpack essential – think again. Yeah, we’re bringing back ‘tamagotchi’s.
As the memory of their first appearance fades from the minds of school teachers and the like, it’s time to rediscover what was so great about them in the first place!
First of all, it’s a great conversation starter. Second of all, they’re cute and fun. What? Like the school expects you to study for eight hours straight without a break?
Get this look:
Investing in a good ruler will help no matter what subjects you’re taking. You can use them in maths, graphics, or art! Some people also prefer to rule up their own pages for maximum creativity!
There’s nothing you can’t handle with a ruler ready to go in your backpack.

Because you need something to write on, duh! This is the one backpack essential you can’t miss!
