Young Adult Apartment Necessities

Well, I have officially signed a lease for my first official adult apartment!!! I'm pretty excited about the place, and not to mention it is next to everything that I could ever dream of, namely Target and the movie theater. Since I have finally signed and everything is official, I have begun budgeting and figuring out what I need to buy/ already have. I decided to put together this word list/physical list for any young people just starting out looking for ideas for things that they may need (or just for fun) in a new apartment !
