Answer 2

I'm getting ready for dorm life, too. One thing I'm doing is instead of bringing a CD player, just putting all my music on Itunes and bringing my ipod. This way I don't risk getting my stereo stolen, and I can listen to my music whenever I want without bothering anybody. It's also good to have a cell phone because I think most dorm phones only have local.

Answer 3

A very large dictionary (Good for standing on, propping the door open and looking up big words); a Leatherman Tool (Good for opening beers, cutting wires, screwing bookshelves together and getting small things out of small places); a hot water boiler (not an really electric kettle, but one shaped like a pot)(Good for cooking Kraft Dinner, Jello, Ramen, and making tea or instant coffee)

Answer 4

not really for the dorm but if your always on the go .... if you have to use your car alot. at any truck stop you'll find a thing called a stove, it looks like a lunch box that you plug into your lighter cooks quick great for hotpockets frozen dinners and left overs.
