When you are in a rushed frenzy, it is nice to know that you can just grab your bag and go. I started from a young age packing my bag the night before school. This can help you to relax and breath a little easier knowing that you'll have everything you need for classes, whether you are running late or not.

Here are my essential class must haves:

• A pen and/or pencil (obvi).
• I prefer these awesome marker type pens from Paper-Mate

• A 3-5 subject notebook.
• I prefer bigger notebooks so that I can take the same one to each class.

• A folder or 3-ring binder.
• A small zippered bag containing: 
• A mini stapler.
• Gum.
• Hand Sanitizer.
• Fingernail Clippers (I always get a hangnail in the middle of class). 
• Lip Balm
• Headphones
• Bobby Pins / Hair Ties
• USB
• Glasses if you wear them.
• A calculator. 
• A water bottle.
• A snack of some kind.
• Your phone.
• An agenda.
• I'm obsessed with my Lilly Agenda

                 

•  and finally, your bag.
• these are my favorite choices:

I always find that the more stuff I bring, the less stressed I am when I suddenly get a hangnail or forgot to eat before I left. I hope that you find these suggestions helpful and maybe give your school bag an update. Be sure to share this post if you found it helpful!

What do you take in your college bag that I haven't included?
