I stayed in the hostel in my final year as a student. That was an experience I wouldn’t trade for anything else. The freedom alone, the independence, was exhilarating to say the least. There are several essentials every hostelite should have in her room. That is in addition to your books, stationery and all the stuff you’d need in school.

You need food. Sure, the hostel might provide meals, but mealtimes tend to be fixed and if you miss the set meal time, too bad. It happens. Staying late in the library to study, late lessons, extra curricular activities and the like could make you miss your dinner. Oversleeping might mean you have to go without breakfast if you depend on the hostel for your meals.
