Hi everyone! 
I’m sure many of you are busy making lists of all the practical items you’ll need to take to university when you head off in just a few weeks.

But alongside the coat hangers, cutlery, and plasters, what things are you taking that you absolutely cannot live without? If uni was a desert island, what would be your essential items?

I’m not the most sensible person and I definitely prioritised emotional comfort over common sense when I was packing for uni (proudly made it three whole years without owning a cheese grater or a sharp knife!

)
My own top 3 desert island university essentials were:
1. A bright orange leopard print coat (Thought this might be a shortcut to reinventing myself

)
2. A toastie maker (I think this explains itself

)
3. A giant orangutan stuffed toy (I don’t think I can explain this

)
So what are you taking with you to uni that you can’t live without? Start by telling us what university you will be going to this year and then your list of
absolutely can not live without items, the more unusual the better!

Ps. As a bonus, we'd love for you to nominate someone else to comment their own top 3 items, just tag them in your reply and away we go
