It’s back-to-uni-eve and so, how fitting to show you what’s in my uni bag! Disclaimer… this is a hypothetical situation π
I am currently giving uni a two week trial period- to see how I suit/like my course, and so, I don’t want to buy things I’m not going to use if I choose not to continue.
And so, this is what WOULD be in my uni bag if I were 100% committed π
This gorgeous backpack from The Beekeeper Parade is also hypothetical because it’s currently sold out. But I would definitely chose this pattern, as I’m not afraid of it clashing with an outfit (adds character). It’s just the cutest print! I love the muted colours. I also love this one if you’re looking for a more simple colour way.

In a dream uni life, I would have the gold MacBook Air. This colour is just dreamyyyyyty! But I have two issues with this: is this finish going to last as well as the silver? And is a Mac the best suit for me? I love the idea of a laptop that converts to a tablet, but choosing one of those options is hard as everywhere I look there is a different opinion. At least I know with the Macs, they’re reliable. 
I had these highlighters in high school and loved them, but I want to update my aesthetic (I’m joking, I just want more colours!) and Zebra is the sure-fire way to do so. This set of 25 is actual goals. All my favourite study bloggers use these pens, and so they would be a *great investment* (cough) because if use them for study and my bullet journal! Win win! 
Hydrate… in style! I especially love Memobottle because they are a student initiated, Melbourne based company! I actually think the A7 would be very practical for me as it would fit in my handbag, but for a day at uni, the 750ml A5 is best suited. 
As for a pencil case, it would honestly be any of these Typo ones. I love the shape, and all the styles are so cute. However, I think I’d chose this one because it would make a cute travel makeup bag too!

Hand sanitiser. Need I say more? My go to is this one by Thankyou however they have a delish grapefruit scent one as well- sadly this doesn’t appear to come in a travel size! 
Coffee but make it fashion! How sleek is this travel mug! My only issue isn’t car doesn’t have a cup holder so I’m not sure how I’d transport this (full!) from home to the train. Ahhh I’m obsessed with this cup!!!
How gorgeous is the green colour of this planner! And it’s only $10 from Kmart. The reason I haven’t bought it is mainly because I currently have 3 planners. And so another probably isn’t necessary. Pretty though!!
Now this is not hypothetical! I have it packed in my current “make shift” uni bag all ready for tomorrow. I am that type of person that has a lip balm in their car, their bedside, their handbag, etc etc, and so uni has given me a perfect opportunity to expand my lip balm collection π
Other things:
– chewies
– notebook
– headphones
– tissues
– lanyard for student card
– glasses! (For seeing the lecture board and my Sarah’s Day anti bluelight pair for when I’m studying on my laptop!)
And I think that’s all!! It will be interesting to see how I actually go at uni with my current supplies and if I need anything else.
Please, part with your wisdom and let us know in the comments below- uni bag essentials?
Big love π
