Make the most of your student life with these 8 must-have products

So you've around four-weeks to start planning and preparing for your next adventure – university life! It’s never easy returning to school after a long break or adapting to a new environment. This includes settling in at the dorms and getting along with your new roommate(s). Whether you are a freshmen or already in the midst of a semester, you want to be as settled as possible so you can focus on what’s important: your education.

Here are 8 must-have items courtesy of Ezbuy that every university student should consider owning to ensure your university days are a lot less dreary!

1. Mini Multipurpose Cooker 

Your dorm room may not be equipped with a kitchen, but that certainly shouldn’t stop one from eating and snacking on campus (we’ve all been there!). Create your own mini kitchen inside your dorm room with this mini multipurpose cooker; this handy appliance, which comes in a range of sizes, can make a lot more than just good ole’ rice. Try steaming potatoes or even that pack of mini dim sum you bought on the way back to dorm…it works!

2. A Trusty Backpack 

ezbuy: From RM45.04

Though it may not be at the top of your college prep to-do list, the bag you carry to class every day is an important consideration, and that old high-school backpack may not cut it this time around. You're likely to be covering a lot more distance and longer days. Get backpacks with multiple compartments for both your laptop and your books. The right bag will keep your gear — and you! — safe and organised along the way.

Alternatively, get this A4 folder bag for classes or general everyday use for men and women. It comes with a cover padding for protection and zipped compartments to ensure your notes don’t fall out. So, when there is just one class to attend, you can rock your way to class without needing the burden of a big bag on your shoulders. 

3. Portable Chargers 

ezbuy: RM 67.00

Portable chargers are extremely beneficial. On certain occasions, they can be simply life-saving. We’ve all been in those situations where we’re in the middle of an imporant phone call and your phone shuts down unexpectedly. Wouldn’t it be nice if you have an alternative device to fall back on during such times? Juice up your smartphone on-the-go with this Xiaomi Mi Powerbank so you can always stay connected. 

4. Notebooks

ezbuy: RM7.60

There are loads of designs, styles and colours to choose from to match your personality. We suggest getting notebooks such as this particular one that comes with inner folder compartments for your notes. Choose from A5 or A6 sizes. 

5. Desk Storage

ezbuy: From RM20.39

Going back to school might require some adjustments and your mind might be all over the place, but that doesn't mean your room should look like one. You need a neat, clean and tidy desk for the right motivation because – trust us – seeing an untidy desk with a pile of assignments to do will not get you in the “mood”. Get organised with this desk storage cum organiser and bring order to your pens, marker, books, notes and workspace! 

6. In-Ear Headphones

ezbuy: RM 59.00

Whether you are grooving to music on Spotify as you make your way to class or trying to avoid getting distracted as you finish up some last minute revision, a pair of in-ear headphones is what you need. The incredible sound and legendary styling of the Beats in-ear headphones by Dr. Dre could help you do just that.

7. Foldable Laptop Table

ezbuy: From RM5

It is compact, folds flat and doesn’t take much space; an ideal product for tight spaces and dorm rooms. Forget about big bulky tables with poor craftsmanship – these foldable tables are already assembled and good to go in 2 simple moves. Unfold the legs, choose the desired height, place it over you lap, and enjoy.

8. LED Fairy Lights

ezbuy: From RM7.80

We get it, it’s tough being away from home and you may get a little homesick sometimes. Decorate your room with some LED fairy lights to bring out some of that homey vibes! In addition, you can be the envy of your fellow course mates with an insta-worthy room such as this!
