College is a new phase of life and everyone feels differently about it. With the newfound independence and responsibility, everyone wants to explore the world and gather new experiences. The value of 'home' increases for those who move out of their family homes and start living in hostels and PGs. Let's take a peek inside the home of a university student to find what are the things they can't live without.
Books
Reading books help one to experience multiple realities, change his/her perspective. It makes you aware and widens your horizons. Reading books also helps one to kill time during commuting.
Makeup and Skincare products
Everyone wants to look and feel good during their college years. Most college students believe that makeup is a way to express oneself. The idea behind applying it isn’t to impress someone but to rather feel confident in one’s own skin.
Iron, Straightners, And Curlers
Iron, Straightners and Curlers are products almost every girl owns or has used at some point in her life. Girls love to experiment with their hair and keep changing their looks.
Hobbies
College societies play an integral role in a student’s life. Be it music, art, dance, dramatics or photography one can always find things like musical instruments, watercolours and cameras inside the home of a university student.
Laptops
A student is incomplete without his/her laptop. Quite contrary to school, a college goer's life revolves around their laptops. Preparing presentations and completing assignments, studying for exams, all of it is impossible without a laptop. One cannot forget the most essential purpose of a laptop in binge-watching shows on Netflix either. Earphones and headphones are ideal while travelling and even good for studying.

Quick snacks and chai
Readymade food items like chips, biscuits and quick to cook items like Maggie and popcorn are always available at a student's home. They help students sustain during late-night studies.
Chai is another item college students enjoy, nothing beats the feeling of having a chai during a cold winter evening in a cosy blanket.
