In this video I’m walking through my 2025 student everyday carry—what I keep on me and what actually lives in my backpack as an Ontario engineering student. Not everything here is “essential” (yes, I show a Nintendo Switch 2), but it’s all stuff I genuinely use for school, studying, and just surviving long days on campus. I cover my iPhone 16 Pro (great phone, not-so-great battery), AirPods Pro 2 for noise cancelling, a classic Swiss Army knife, an AirTag wallet because I misplace things constantly, and my Apple Watch for health tracking and notification control. Then we get into my backpack tech: a 3-in-1 ESR travel charging kit that keeps my iPhone/AirPods/Watch topped up with one outlet, my absolute essential MacBook Air M1 (still my main computer after years), and my iPad Air M2 + Apple Pencil setup for GoodNotes, textbooks, and annotating slides. I also talk about the Anker MagSafe power bank that’s saved me when my phone dies, the Samsung T7 Shield SSD for cheap storage expansion, plus the “student stuff” like my beat-up water bottle, Casio FX-991MS calculator, cables, umbrella, cards, and sanitizer. The big takeaway: you don’t need all of this for university, but the right few pieces can make school way more convenient.
