<\/center><\/p>\nI’m writing this on my NOOK tablet so cutting and pasting links is hard. Thus, I am going to write a post that doesn’t require any! As some of my church kids are headed to college this fall and I start back to school in a week and a half, I thought I would do a list of things I recommend bringing to college with you.<\/p>\n
<\/a>— 1 —<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n Earbuds.<\/strong> Many people like listening to music while they study and this allows you to do that without irritating one’s roommates or the other people in the library\/coffee shop\/lounge.<\/p>\n <\/a>— 2 —<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n iPod.<\/strong> It’s a portable way to bring your music collection with you to go study or work out.

Having an e-reader helps to cut down on storage space, which is a premium in a dorm room.<\/p>\n <\/a>— 6 —<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n Quarters.<\/strong> For copiers, laundry, and vending machines. They come in pretty handy and it’s annoying to have to go find them when you need them in a hurry.<\/p>\n <\/a>— 7 —<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n A three-hole punch.<\/strong> Because very few professors actually hole-punch their handouts!<\/p>\n For more Quick Takes, visit Kelly at This Ain’t The Lyceum<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" I’m writing this on my NOOK tablet so cutting and pasting links is hard.
