12 Things You'll Forget to Pack For College // eyelinerwingsandprettythings #CollegeChecklist
As if there’s not enough lists of things to pack for college, am I right? This list is a unique one. There’s no shower caddy or Twin XL sheets common sense business on here–no, these are the weird things you’ll forget to pack for college. These are things you haven’t even thought of (probably).

These are mostly things that I did not realize I needed until the second half of freshman year–hopefully this list can help you get these key items beforehand. Don’t forget to back these things you’ll forget to pack for college!
