Dormitory living has its obstacles and many students think that in order to make a nice comfy area for themselves that they need to carry along those particular items from home to make their home away from home just that. For a lot of them this ends up being their biggest mistake. With a small space it is ideal to furnish it only with nice and easy to fit dorm items and only one or two necessaries from home.
Clutter doesn't generate an environment that is conducive to learning and thinking. It is important that your area is aesthetically pleasing to you. Everyone else's opinions really don't matter and if you have a roommate who doesn't mind the chaos and clutter then you may wish to use a curtained partition to help block out their clutter and make your small space one in which you can successfully think.
The majority of college students don't actually end up using the space that they live in to study in as well. As a matter of fact, most college students will tell you that they find it challenging to study where they live and instead use community locations in the dormitory buildings as well as studying out on the benches and campus lawn and of course, the campus library. These areas tend to provide students with the quiet and chaos free environment that permits them to focus on the job at hand.
College life can be a lot of fun but many college students find out the hard way that this level of schooling comes with it many challenges, the largest of which is staying focused on your responsibilities first, and only after work and studying are done is their time for play. It is easy to be pulled into blowing off responsibility and taking part in a party with a friend.
Focus is pretty much everything when you are away at school so make sure that you create a sanctuary in your dorm room; a place where you can comfortably rest and focus and when necessary study. If you realize it tough to focus in your dorm room either because of clutter or a troublesome or distracting roommate then make sure that you find several good study locations on campus so when you need to you can duck out of your room and refocus your energies on your education. Ultimately, this is why you are attending college for and therefore getting a good education has to be your predominant focus.
