College Shopping List: Entertainment
The entertainment portion of this college shopping list is pretty short… that’s because you’re at college. If you aren’t studying or working, try to get out and enjoy college life. Meet some new people. Join a club. Don’t sequester yourself in your dorm room 24/7.
Ultimate College Shopping List Tip: If your family or a friend subscribes to Netflix (or another paid service like Amazon Prime) you may be able to use their account to access content. This will allow you to leave a lot of the DVDs at home and save on space.
DVD’s
Your favorite books (don’t go overboard–they’re a pain to move)
Journal
Bible (or another inspirational book)
Letters from family and friends to open throughout your first week
