Blankets to Bows to Belts

Many students here buy the hospital style blankets. As much as you want to bring your wonderful bedding--leave it at home. Bring your sheets and pillow cases if you must, but those items can be easily replaced, for cheap, at ROSS or Walmart. Many of the beds here are old and uncomfortable. Be prepared to buy a mattress pad, or buy a cheap one at home and have someone ship it to you.

Those hospital style blankets come wrapped in a large, long, pretty ribbon. I couldn't bring myself to throw it away, so I tied a big bow with a long loop, draped it over an old nail in my wall, and it is my new belt hanger. I stick my hair pins along the top to avoid losing them.
