Tips and advice for decorating my college bedroom?

Get some shelves and put some trophies, books, stuff you collect or whatever you are interested in. Put a painting, schedules or pictures (of anything that interests you and family/friends) on your walls. I'd get a desk and a computer or laptop to do work on. Some good things to have are: laundry basket, dresser (unless you have a big closet), a nightstand, alarm clock and a mirror would be a good idea.
