A Great Paper Planner
出色的纸质日程本
Even though basically everything is digital these days, a paper planner like this one—my favorite overall—is great for jotting down important schedule updates. Plus, putting pen to paper can be quite therapeutic. What I love about this planner is that it’s inexpensive, has monthly and weekly spreads, and includes two open pages for notes each week. Because it’s undated, students can use it however they choose. It’s flexible enough to work for basically anybody.
尽管如今几乎一切都已数字化，但像这款我最钟爱的纸质日程本，依然是记录重要日程更新的绝佳工具。此外，笔尖在纸上书写的感觉非常治愈。我喜欢这款日程本的原因在于它价格亲民，拥有月度和周度视图，且每周都包含两页空白笔记页。由于它没有预设日期，学生可以根据自己的需求自由使用，其灵活性足以满足任何人的习惯。
A Solid Backpack
结实的背包
You don’t need to spend a ton to get a well-made backpack for class. Herschel’s Heritage Backpack was my college bag of choice, and it’s still holding up, years following graduation. It has a 15-inch laptop sleeve and enough room for bulky textbooks in the main compartment. My one gripe is its lack of a water bottle pocket. The bag is made from durable 600-denier polyester with a faux-leather bottom and handles.
你不需要花大价钱就能买到一个做工精良的上课背包。Herschel Heritage 背包曾是我大学时的首选，毕业多年后它依然完好如初。它配有一个15英寸的笔记本电脑隔层，主仓空间足以容纳厚重的教科书。我唯一的不满是它缺少水杯侧袋。这款背包采用耐用的600D聚酯纤维制成，并配有仿皮底座和提手。
If You Prefer Purses
如果你更喜欢手提包
The Away Everywhere Tote really can go … everywhere. It has a water-resistant nylon body that looks great and can withstand the demands of daily life. Inside, it has a padded 16-inch laptop sleeve, multiple slip pockets, and a key clip. There’s an exterior zip pocket, plus the whole thing zips shut. It’s also available in many cute colors. I wish it had a dedicated water bottle slot, but it’s still a great, well-rounded bag that will look good to and from class.
Away Everywhere 托特包真的可以去……任何地方。它采用防水尼龙材质，外观时尚，足以应对日常生活的各种需求。包内配有带衬垫的16英寸笔记本电脑隔层、多个插袋和一个钥匙扣。包外设有一个拉链袋，且整个包口可以拉链闭合。它还有多种可爱的颜色可选。虽然我希望它能有一个专门的水杯位，但它依然是一款非常出色、功能全面的包，无论去上课还是通勤都很好看。
Some Good Smells
营造香氛环境
Dorm rooms can get very stinky, very quickly. But most don’t allow residents to burn candles due to the fire hazard. This miniature diffuser solves for that issue. It’s our favorite essential oil diffuser for small spaces. Its companion Pura app offers scheduling, scent-strength control, and automatic vial detection to help make sure you never run out. You can also change the color of the light and rotate the direction of the plug.
宿舍房间很容易产生异味。但由于火灾隐患，大多数宿舍不允许点蜡烛。这款迷你扩香器完美解决了这个问题。它是我们心目中适合小空间的最佳精油扩香器。配套的 Pura App 提供定时功能、香氛浓度控制以及自动检测香氛余量功能，确保你不会断香。你还可以更改灯光颜色并旋转插头方向。
A Mattress Topper
床垫罩
Skip the mattress pad and get this instead. This mattress topper is our favorite for dorms, and it comes in whatever size you’ll need. It’s a whopping 4 inches thick, so it’ll make your bed extra-comfortable. It’s also cooling and antimicrobial thanks to its copper-infused memory foam construction and GlacioTex cooling covers. It’s dense and deep, and it’ll ensure you won’t feel like you’re sleeping on a folding table.
别买普通的床垫保护套了，买这个吧。这款床垫罩是我们推荐的宿舍首选，提供各种尺寸。它足足有4英寸厚，能让你的床变得格外舒适。得益于注入铜离子的记忆棉结构和 GlacioTex 凉感面料，它还具备降温和抗菌功能。它质地厚实，能确保你不会有睡在折叠桌上的感觉。
A Tiny Fridge
迷你冰箱
Depending on your college dorm, you might have access to a bigger refrigerator. This mini fridge is perfectly personal-sized. It holds just six cans, so you can stash your seltzer water, yogurt, or other snacks—or, if we’re being real, your emergency supply of energy drinks. The box also works well as a skin care fridge or can double as a warmer, if you’re interested in that for some reason. It’s quiet, it’s small, and it comes in lots of fun colors.
根据宿舍条件，你可能可以使用更大的冰箱。但这款迷你冰箱非常适合个人使用。它刚好能容纳六罐饮料，你可以存放苏打水、酸奶或其他零食——或者说实话，存放你的应急能量饮料。如果你有需要，它也可以作为护肤品冰箱，或者切换到加热模式。它安静、小巧，且有多种有趣的颜色可选。
A Reusable Notebook
可重复使用的笔记本
Tired of buying new notebooks on repeat? Rocketbook’s notebooks use special paper that feels like a super-thin whiteboard. They come with an erasable Pilot Frixion gel pen and a microfiber cloth that lets you wipe the page clean when you’re done using it. Rocketbook makes a variety of notebooks and styles, but WIRED reviewer Nena Farrell recommends the Fusion Plus, since it gives you a nice variety of page styles, including classic monthly and weekly pages and project-management layouts.
厌倦了不断购买新笔记本？Rocketbook 的笔记本使用一种触感像超薄白板的特殊纸张。它们配有一支可擦除的百乐 Frixion 中性笔和一块超细纤维布，用完后只需擦拭即可清洁页面。Rocketbook 提供多种款式，但 WIRED 评测员 Nena Farrell 推荐 Fusion Plus，因为它提供了丰富的页面样式，包括经典的月度和周度页面，以及适合小组作业的项目管理布局。
