    34 Things Lazy College Students Will Probably Appreciate

    No gym. No tan. No Laundry. Repeat.

    1. A laundry bag with straps that might actually inspire you to do your own laundry instead of waiting to bring it home at a holiday so your parent can do it.

    2. A pair of versatile joggers you can wear literally anywhere. Don't waste your one life NOT wearing fashionable sweatpants as real pants.

    3. A pair of indoor/outdoor slippers that are perfect for shuffling down your dorm's cold tile halls or shuffling off to your 8 a.m. econ class.

    4. A can of Batiste dry shampoo so you can get that ~just-showered~ look without having to put on your shower sandals and brave the communal bathroom.

    5. Mighty Patches, because fighting breakouts can be as easy as popping on a sticker that sucks up all that gunk overnight.

    6. A maintenance-free seven-pocket mesh shower tote. It's water-resistant and drains immediately, so you can take it into the shower and just leave it out to dry after without risking a moldy disaster.

    7. A bottle of wrinkle releaser spray, because ironing is a big, fat NO for at least another 10 years.

    8. A microwave pasta cooker for when you want to dine in ~luxury~ aka eat something other than ramen. Yes this gif is cursed, but just trust — the pasta maker is legit.

    9. A caffeinated chocolate bar, because I cannot imagine a better solution for being tired than eating a bar of chocolate.

    10. A makeup-removing microfiber cloth, because after a full night of studying (definitely NOT partying, no siree) taking off your makeup sounds like way too much work. This makes it SO easy. Just a few swipes with water and you're good!

    11. A cookbook for college students filled with cheap, tasty, and manageable recipes. This book goes far beyond ramen noodles, so don't be fooled by the cover!

    12. Some Glossier products to make your morning makeup routine super quick and simple. Try Boy Brow to pull a quick, full brow look and Cloud Paint for a pretty pop of color.

    13. A subscription to Lola so all of your period and sexual wellness products can be delivered right to you. No more going to the campus convenience store hoping you don't run into your crush while holding a 50-pack of super-duper-overnight pads.

    14. A bedside caddy to hold your phone, books, Sour Patch Kids — ya know, the essentials.

    15. A breakfast sandwich maker for whipping up a quick meal with minimal effort and cleanup no matter what time of day. Breakfast sandwiches for every meal forever!

    16. A comfy velour reading pillow so whether you're studying or binge-watching, you can stay cozy in bed, right where you belong.

    17. A small Brita pitcher to keep in your dorm fridge because unfortunately "great city water quality" didn't rank high on your school choice pros and cons list.

    18. A superabsorbent microfiber hair turban that'll get your hair dry a LOT quicker than a regular towel. It'll cut blow drying time from 25 minutes down to five, so maybe get one for your roommate too because that's a LOT of racket.

    19. A powerful vibrating alarm clock for all those deep sleepers out there who don't wake up with loud noises alone.

    20. A cold shoulder swing dress that you'll find yourself reaching for every day. Dress it up, dress it down, wear it to bed, you live in this dress now.

    21. A book of college hacks to help solve all of your new life's little problems.

    22. A mug warmer that'll save you multiple, painful trips three feet away to the the microwave.

    23. An Angry Mama microwave cleaner so you can easily wipe up the constant mess in your one appliance (without having to call your actual mama to ask how).

    24. A pack of Bottle Bright tabs — the chance of you ruining every tumbler you own in college is 100%, and these will help you fix them with VERY little effort!

    25. A sleep eye mask with bluetooth headphones so you can listen to a book or soft music as you snooze while blocking out the light from your roommate's lamp.

    26. A t-shirt that really captures your essence.

    27. A makeup brush cleaning sponge so you can change eyeshadow colors with just a swipe. Gone are the days of having to clean brushes before using them again, aka never cleaning them at all (shhh).

    28. An instant mushroom coffee that tastes milder than regular coffee, takes literal seconds to make, and is said to help clear your head and make you more productive. I've tried it and don't worry — it doesn't taste mushroomy at all!

    29. A Billie subscription so you never have to add razors to your "to get" list again. We all know you're not running errands!

    30. A color-blocked fleece pullover that you can pull on to look put together while basically wearing a blanket.

    31. An accordion file folder to inspire you to finally start keeping track of your important papers. I know this seems like work, but I promise that throwing things in a folder is the easiest way to organize.

    32. A set of artificial succulents so you can keep up your dorm's aesthetic without having to do the work of keeping plants alive.

    33. An HP wireless printer to keep in your room so you don't have to run across campus to the library to use the public printer. Please. Get this. Learn from my mistakes.

    34. A pack of sticky notes that might help you actually accomplish a few of the one million things you have to do...starting with snacking.
