As I&#8217;m sure, just like I, your transition from scratchy school uniform to complete clothing freedom has not only been tricky but confusing. Well sit back, relax, and get your check list ready.<\/p>\n<h4><strong>10. Jeans<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p>However warm or cold the weather is, a comfortable pair of jeans will breeze you over from daytime lectures to night time sessions.<\/p>\n<p><center><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.anfocal.ie\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/09\/jeans-570x315.jpg\" alt=\"jeans\" width=\"570\" height=\"315\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-17833\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.anfocal.ie\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/09\/jeans-570x315.jpg 570w, https:\/\/www.anfocal.ie\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/09\/jeans-350x193.jpg 350w, https:\/\/www.anfocal.ie\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/09\/jeans.jpg 704w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 570px) 100vw, 570px\" \/><\/center><\/p>\n<h4><strong>9. Raincoat<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p>Both you and I know the Irish weather is not one to be gambled with. Take my advice and carry a raincoat EVERYWHERE you go. College requires a lot of walking and there&#8217;s no point missing out on the freshers madness because of a silly cold. God forbid you&#8217;d ruin the hair you spent all morning perfecting either.<\/p>\n<p><center><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.anfocal.ie\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/09\/raincoat-570x380.jpg\" alt=\"raincoat\" width=\"570\" height=\"380\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-17835\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.anfocal.ie\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/09\/raincoat-570x380.jpg 570w, https:\/\/www.anfocal.ie\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/09\/raincoat-350x233.jpg 350w, https:\/\/www.anfocal.ie\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/09\/raincoat.jpg 704w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 570px) 100vw, 570px\" \/><\/center><\/p>\n<h4><strong>8. Comfortable Shoes<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p>Just like the jeans, comfortable shoes are mandatory to live a happy college life. I&#8217;m afraid to say that means no high heels or flipflops\/fancy sandals. Unless you&#8217;re a fan of blisters that is&#8230;<\/p>\n<p><center><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.anfocal.ie\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/09\/Shoes.jpg\" alt=\"shoes\" width=\"190\" height=\"189\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-17843\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.anfocal.ie\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/09\/Shoes.jpg 190w, https:\/\/www.anfocal.ie\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/09\/Shoes-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/www.anfocal.ie\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/09\/Shoes-144x144.jpg 144w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 190px) 100vw, 190px\" \/><\/center><\/p>\n<h4><strong>7. Interesting Tees<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p>Feeling a little lost and alone? Left your friends behind to venture off into the world of third level? Not sure how to get a conversation going? Sound familiar&#8230;? My number one tip for you is to get yourself a cool graphic\/band tee. Nothing starts a conversation like it. Stuck for a tee? Try wearing your county jersey, now that&#8217;s a sure conversation starter.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.anfocal.ie\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/09\/Tees.jpg\" alt=\"tees\" width=\"236\" height=\"236\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-17836\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.anfocal.ie\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/09\/Tees.jpg 236w, https:\/\/www.anfocal.ie\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/09\/Tees-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/www.anfocal.ie\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/09\/Tees-144x144.jpg 144w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 236px) 100vw, 236px\" \/><\/p>\n<h4><strong>6.

Skinny Pants<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p>Whether you&#8217;re a fan or not, these tracksuits are the holy grail of college life.

Schoolbag<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p>I&#8217;m pretty sure it goes without saying but when it comes to college, nothing is more important than a schoolbag.
