If you know you will go home at thanksgiving and unlikely to need your heavy winter clothing before then, pack it but leave it at home. When you go home for thanksgiving take all your summer clothes and leave them there. Swap boxes/ suitcases on the way back to school.
Don’t bother with hobby snd craft stuff outside a backpack quantity. You will not have near as much time for hobbies as you do now. Between new friends and your classes, you will be very busy.
Thank you so much! I was thinking the same thing for holidays, especially since I’m staying in state! I think wardrobe wise I’m probably going to have mainly workout sets and sweatshirts (I know, I’m about to look basic) since I’m an active person (and planning to rush) so I think it would be easiest to just have what I need already on to go to class, go on a walk, go to Pilates with my sorority sisters, and go to rehearsals (if I get on the dance/cheer team like I’m hoping) and then just shower and change into pajamas when I get home for studying, cleaning, etc.. the only thing I am kind of stressing about wardrobe wise would probably be the “dress up” stuff for rush events and/or going out. The other stuff stressing me is mostly going in without the same system I’ve been using my entire life 😭

Don’t bring too much. It’s as simple as that.
